A building's heat is an excellent analogy for a wider political discussion.
Libertarian: Why have you surrendered your warmth to an overlord?
Democrat: Landlords suck.
Republican: Quit your bitchin'. Warmth is for Nerds.

I have a humongous vat of posole burbling on the stove. I have grocery shopped (sadly, I have a package of chicken thighs to return. They were WRONG) even though I had to sstand in line twice (forgot a key ingredient.) I have a load of laundry drying (2 more to go, but that's for tomorrow.) I'm eating a piece frozen bbq chicken pizza because I realized I had not eaten yet today and the posole is still burbling.
Up later: litterboxes and a trip to target.
It is GORGEOUS today. I'd bet it is almost 70 out there. Insane.

Also? Hate chopping onions. I end up doing it blind because my eyes hurt too much to stay open.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Also, am irked with the fact that whenever there is a large closeout sale on an item, all sizes will be available save the one or ones you need. Please tell me this happens to other people, too.
It happens to us. All. The. Time.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Man, that sucks. I'm sitting around in my bra and underwear because my apt is so overheated with the unseasonable weather this weekend.
Yeah, me too -- all my windows are open. Craziness.

Relatedly, I spent hours (OK, minutes) at Target the other day looking through sale underwear that was either a style I like, and way too big for me, or my size and a style I didn't like. Super annoying.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Plei - do you have any luck with ebay for baby clothes? Also, does Seattle have freecycle? (I am sure they do) - you might try putting a wanted post there for any specific items you want. Also? I have a little something for L, just silly.

sara, you've tried holding a wooden match in your teeth? That is what we used to do in the school kitchen.
I still need to do laundry. I am guessing only 2 loads. Then I think the iMac data pull.
