It was the other day in Kansas/Missouri. So I guess the closest to Erin/Gud territory, if anyone?

Storms missed me almost entirely, there were a few seconds of hail but that was it. I grilled some chicken outside with a soutwest style marinade that night. Erin proabably got more weather, but not any of the serious stuff.

Nilly!

I like hamentaschen, especially apricot hamentaschen.

Doing my usual of lingering in my warm bed checking the 'net before taking my bath. Wish the Starbucks free coffee thing started earlier in the day since I have to be in the office by 8:30. I'm scrounging for ideas for a quick breakfast and bringing lunch to work. I think my laziness about braving the grocery store crowds is finally catching up with me. I want to eat low sugar/starch but it's hard if I don't go to work prepared. I cheated and had some office pretzels yesterday since I hadn't brought enough food of my own.

Sadly, yes.

Oh, I'm sorry. I hope it's over soon.

proabably got more weather

I love the English phrasing of this. In Hebrew, we would say something like "got a stormier weather" or the like, but I prefer the "more weather" phrasing. It's like there are places with less wheather - and what do they have instead? Jiant air-conditioners?

I love hamentaschen, with any filling. But I've always thought of it as not as Hamen's ear but Hamen's pockets following the German word for pockets (Taschen).

Of course, what I love best is the kids dressing up part.

Perkins, so sorry about jury duty. Remember the good old days when a law degree pretty much meant an automatic dismissal?

was there a post in here in last few days linking to a blog with the subject line of geek love or geek attraction? The blog entry had an old picture of Bill Gates laying on a desk.

Anyone?

Argh. Is it too much to ask that when someone says they'll have something back to you on a particular day, they will? When it's already a month late? Is it?

In Jamaica we don't have much weather--the temperatures are pretty constant, as are the thunderstorms.

Well, outside hurricane season anyway.

Crap. I just called the woman I have a noon phone appointment with, and she didn't pick up! I'm getting a little peckish, but I feel confident that as soon as I have food in my mouth (whether that's 5 minutes or an hour from now), she will call.

Timelies! Happy Ides of March, y'all! Let's all celebrate and go stab an emperor.\

An annoying boss will do in a pinch.

Huh. So I just learned that power in my building comes from two separate and not-interdependent lines. How? They keep losing power in the core of the building. I've not heard so much as a single whoomp. I am about as far from the core as you can be without being outside. Kinda weird.
