Plei, how far is Seattle from Portland? In an idle conversation sort of way...
It's about a two and a half, three hour drive, depending on traffic.
We used to go there for the day about three times a year, but haven't been since pre-Lillian.
[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.

So just about as far as LAistas are from me now on a good traffic day. Huh. That is good to know.
How is the darling squeakaboo?
I think I emotionally drained myself tonight for no good reason. I should try and get some sleep soon and just face things again in the morning when I might not have a meltdown because iTunes was mean to me.
I wasn't asleep! Really! Just because I was laying in the papasan with snoozing Mallory for two hours and dreaming...sheesh! I have too much to do today to sleep!
Caffiene is indicated, in large doses.
(shakes head) Bad dreams too. I just read something about Edward Gein, who I'd never heard of before, if you can believe it, and that got mixed up in my head with a case the embassy's currently involved in regarding the disappearance of a cruise ship passenger, [link] and I was being chased around a ship by Gein.

Snuffly. So I'm up when I should be asleep, because I find it hard to sleep when she's not up to snuff.
(However, I am now going to try.)
In Wally-related news, it seems I have a date for Thursday lunchtime. She grew up in Russia, moved to NZ when a teenager and thence to Australia. She's the one with the daughter, only it turns out said daughter has all-over body hair and retractable claws.

your date gave birth to Wolverine?
your date gave birth to Wolverine?
Yes. Yes she did.
Well, just don't spell the kid's name Wolfaryn and it could be a nice lunch date.
I'm in the lull between getting Bobby out the door and having to wake up Brendon. Dog sleeping on on couch, the cat sleeping next to me, DH and son still asleep in their beds. Ah quiet.
More coffee now while I have this 10 minutes to sip in peace.
{{{Kristin}}} I'm so sorry, love. We're here for you.
I just walked Toto. We ran into the beautiful German Shephard that lives down the street. Poor guy was wearing a white cone around his head and had half of his back shaved and in bandages. Poor thing was attacked by a pitbull last week! I just feel so awful for him!
edit: erika, much ~ma for Betsy. Poor thing!

Aimeé, good luck with the apartment hunt.
If I don't move out of the area, I'm hoping to at least move apartments in the next 6 months or so. Some friends live in a small apartment complex, and I'd love to get one of the second floor places there. Two bedrooms, cathedral ceilings, actual storage space--if only they had hardwood floors and decks they'd be perfect.
