Is askye anywhere near there?
Alas, askye is even further from Tampa than me. 5 hours in the other direction. Long state it is. Still, come and play! It's a very nice state.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Your juliana evening sounds great, Hec.
I will vote no on the contract language. Having said that, I find myself beginning to hope that the contract does get rejected, even if it means more annoying email. Because I like to win.

Suddenly I have an urge to move back to SF. And that's saying something!

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Though now that I've recognized what my lizard brain is doing, I feel much better, and I can reason it through. I'm NOT 14 any more, and I'm not responsible for my damn family. So there!
I second the so there! and add a good for you!

All is well that ends in pizza.
Afterwards we walked Juliana home and she took us to the hipster bar directly under her apartment - Magnet.
Is this it? [link]

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Daniel, the very same. We sat on the long sloungy couch in this picture, in the lower right hand corner.
eta: I think that particular spot is just about exactly under the Big-Ass Bookcase in juliana's kitchen.

Apparently I had the Sexy Time cocktail:

What's "soju"?
eta after googling, a Korean liquor. Made from what, though?

Rice, I think.
[eta: From the NYTimes this Wednesday:
While sake may be better known abroad, shochu has been more popular in Japan since 2003, according to the Japanese ministry of finance. It can be distilled from rice, barley, sweet potatoes, cane sugar, buckwheat or even chestnuts. (Koreans drink a related rice-distilled liquor called soju, and say they originated the drink.) The taste varies widely: it can be a bland vodkalike mixer or a full-bodied spirit as sublime as a single malt Scotch.]
