Unfortunately, that does not mean spring in my neck of the woods.

You do get longer days, though, right?

Otherwise I'd ask for a refund and go somewhere else.

Also, I hate my broiler.

Yeah.

The fuck is wrong with people? I'm watching helicopter footage of Martha Stewart feeding her horses.

Eek. That's one tenacious cat.

nobody knew to remove the lymph node from it before cooking and serving. Blech.

I don't even know what this means? Explain?

I used my toaster oven all the time when I had one, but now I don't have the counter space. There are some combo microwaves/toaster ovens on the market that I wanted to get, but they mostly had crappy reviews on the online sites I checked.

My steamer is this: [link] , which I love, and gets much more use than when I had a specific rice cooker since you can use it for all kinds of things. I think the rice comes out better too anyway. I got mine at a thrift store for $6, too, which was nice.

I just realized that I have my shirt on inside-out. Tags and seams are hidden by my sweater, but still -- gronk, much?

My mother always used to say that was good luck.

I'm going to adopt this. Much nicer on the ego than "34 and still can't dress myself".

From Wired:

Here's Looking at You, Kid
Sin City's mayor made no apologies Thursday after being criticized for extolling gin to a class of fourth-graders. Mayor Oscar Goodman said he was just being himself when he told elementary school students that drinking was one of his hobbies and that the one thing he would want if stranded on an island is a bottle of gin. "I answered the question honestly," Goodman told reporters. "I'm not going to lie to children. I'm not going to say I would take a teddy bear or a Bible." Asked if he had a drinking problem, Goodman answered, "Oh, absolutely not. I love to drink." Moments later, he cut off questions and walked out of the news conference. Goodman has never been shy about his love of gin and hosts regular "Martinis with the Mayor" events.

Well, David, at least she was unhappy about it.

Lee, from what little I know about scoliosis, most children outgrow it, particularly if they are vigilant with their use of the brace. For the few who don't, it unfortunately tends to get worse as they get older. One of my former students had severe scoliosis that needed surgery, but her case had complications from the start. IT wasn't diagnosed until she was already quite a bit older. For your neice, she has been diagnosed in a timely fashion and treatment has begun. All the signs are hopeful.
