Spring in the air?

I think this one's arrival was a combination of snow, new bigger holes around my gas lines and someone moving in to the apartment below me. I hope it stays a fairly isolated event. There is a pretty pronounced mouse problem in the complex. However, I do not have a mouse problem, which I suspect is due to the presence of cats. I hope.

I want to go to The RioBelle Cupcake Cafe!

Will you have black-bottom cupcakes?

Last night I made a roasted chicken dinner with garlic mashed potatoes and corn, with fresh strawberry shortcake for dessert.

Bought myself a bunch of fresh daisies for the kitchen.

Also got half done with a script outline.

It was a good last week. Hope this week is just as happy-making. Please.

I think for me the key is that in certain hairstyles Tilda looks very much like a beardless Eric Stoltz. [link]

sounds like a good week to me Allyson.

But the list of all the desserts on the joy of baking site, right?

I guess. It's just confusing since the first entry is for "afternoon tea".

I just had brunch. Very yummy food, but very full and sleepy now.

Sadly, the second place I linked to this morning doesn't allow cats. They really need to say that in the ad, so people don't get their hopes up.

This cupcake talk is driving me mad. Mad, I tell you!

We tried to go to Cupcake Royale after dinner on our date a week ago. I'd been thinking of chocolate cupcakes all day. But they had live music, and it was all mid-performance, so it would've been awkward to barge in. So we went down the block and had Ben & Jerry's instead. But I'm still suffering from Cupcakeus Interruptus.

Lee, if I didn't say so elsewhere (brain not working so well at the moment), conGRATS!

One of the four Tilda Swinton androgy links posted managed to slip a popup past firefox 1.01 with popup blocking enabled, adblocker installed, and javascript limited to the max you can without disabling it (which will be my next step).

The popup was one of those endless loop windows that you have to use task manager to shutdown. It was trying to install some sort of malware.

I'm going to pack to posts 1655 and 1657 to figure out which one tried it. OK - did not get a popup again but this digitalhit site loads different ads everytime it is refreshed, so probably digital hit is the site that tried to slip something on. I am going to run a quick spyware scan just to be on the safe side, but I'm pretty sure that having turned off the ability web sites to install software in firefox provides some protection.

You know when you've been holding for what feels like forever, and they keep replaying the "we apologize for the delay yadda yadda" message? They really do not need to play said message in 15 second intervals. No, not exaggerating. May become homocidal soon.
