Why can't I decide where to stop and grab something for dinner since I'm betting my apartment is the temperature of the surface of the sun and no way in hell am I cooking?

Do you like Asian noodle dishes? A cold noodle dish can be just the thing in this weather. They have really good (if a little pricey) ones at Suzi Soba's on the Ave. and I'm sure there are some other good ones nearby.

I'm totally feeling you on the heat. In my case, though, my office AC is broken (as it is EVERY summer!! And we were supposed to move this year and didn't and so here it is summer again and it still doesn't work right grrrr) so it's been in the mid 80s and humid there all week.

Actually, that specific site looks like a hoax. There was definitely a Jesus-pan-ebay-mini-scandal a few months back, though

So, DH shouldn't buy this for his friend? It's so PERFECT for him!

do you work in my building? we should have lunch!

In our case, it's 15K to replace the chiller, so theyve decided that it's cheaper to just give anyone who asks a window unit. and it's especially cheaper if they take 2 years to do it.

We have a fan...one fan for a floor divided up into cubicles where about 30 people sit. And it took me months and months of bitching loudly last year to get that.

Good luck with that, Marie.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Where the fuck are my thunderstorms?

Errr, whoops. Sorry. I didn't mean to steal yours. We're having a (completely unexpected, at least to me) brisk set of clouds here that is making an odd rumbling sound. And I think water is falling. Out of the sky! Very startling. I almost thought to myself, oh, I should take the dog out before it storms. And then I remembered that I live in New Mexico, and if it storms, it will be over in like, ten minutes.

A cold noodle dish can be just the thing in this weather.

Mmm. We had a cold somen salad yesterday for dinner; chilled somen noodles, sweet egg, char siu pork, green onions & carrots with a sweet soy sauce dressing. It was yum. But the roommate ate late and I didn't get to tell him in time, so he reheated his. Hee. But it was probably still good that way. Just not as ideal a summer dish.

though My unkind thoughts do wonder if he is so far back in the closet that he fell out the other side.

So far in there he's met Aslan.

So, Marie can't control her kids so she wants to control the whole world? Cool.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Uh, Marie? Sweetpea? Maybe if you spent as much with your kids as you do those godawful, uglyass dolls, you'd actually *know* what they were posting on the internet. Also? The day you tell me what I can and can't post to or look at on the internet, is the day that I'm a little bit chilly and little bit more in hell.
