Pumpkin ale is odd. It sounds really yummy, but it tastes...weird. Great for making pumpkin bread, though.
So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Or have people been using "in love" to mean "sexually attracted to"?
I think "love" is often the word people use for limerance, or romantic obsession. The part of love which used to be (and probably should still be) considered a form of mental illness back before the troubadours got hold of it.
And that's probably a valid use for the word, though it doesn't describe the enduring complex of feeling which will sustain a marriage.
Betsy, we won't cancel your West Coast visa because you still like wine and fancy lettuce.

FTR, the pumpkin ale at Beer Works was delicious. Yum!

so, it's settled. Everyone must come visit us in Salem in October, for our one year wedding anniversay/housewarming, and we will also all go to the Salem Beerworks and have pumpkin ale.
It's a plan.
lalalala, I am in a dream world!
And, OK, realtors need to STOP CALLING ME NOW.

Just make sure it's in the early part of the month, because even on weeknights the mob scene is outrageous, and the last weekend there are even sometimes admission charges to get into some of the bars (ala Irish bars in Boston near St. Paddy's).

Oh yeah, late October is definitely the time to avoid Salem. Good luck with the house-buying, Nora! So exciting.

Amen, I usually try to be away from Salem the last weekend of October - especially if Halloween is close or on the weekend. Usually head up to Maine, because even commuting (let alone driving) in and out is major hassle.

If I don't travel this Halloween, I want to throw a massive Halloween party. All local-istas are going to be invited.

Too Many Realtors Up In My Business! They smell blood in the water. Heh. And, blah. Now I am tired.
We're walking a bit of a tricky line. We are very interested in this place in Salem, but are still wondering what's Out There in other communities. (Waltham, Arlington, a pipe dream for Somerville). So we aren't quite ready to commit, but we really like this place. We may be dreaded fence sitters.
