It's still pouring here. Supposedly 3 inches tonight.
Allyson, got it. Whee!
I'll look up my hs stats tomorrow (too lazy, oh god too lazy with google?) tonight. But I'd be shocked if it turns up anything less than majority hispanic. When I was in elementary, I got all offended when some girl called me gringa. Dude! I was so not.... oh. I really hadn't thought myself at all different from my peers, other than I was a nerd. I really suspect I didn't know that I was anything but hispanic until fairly late. It wasn't an issue. I do know that my standard of beauty is biased towards hispanic- dark hair, eyes, skin. When I moved to NC for school, I felt really out of place until I realized my issue was there were so many white people. Black/afam didn't ping me, it was somewhat foreign (my part of NM, until recently, had very very few so I sort of was conscious of that aspect.) I just didn't expect so few hispanics!
We've had so much rain the past weekend, the froggies and toads have come out. I go outside and I hear the wheeerk?wheeerk?
In NM, everytime it rained, there was a cacophony of toad singing. It makes me happy. Go wee froggie! Procreate!
Also? My bed is so sexy. Dev was clawing at my sheets on the corners, which, being $70 sheets, annoyed me. So I carved up a box and coated the pieces in foil and shoved them over the corners. It crinkles. Ah well, it should cure her.
I decided I couldn't deal with the cats for a little while, so I am locked into the guest room, Perkins is locked into my bedroom, and Ozzie has the rest of the house.
I'm getting stuff done, at least.
Two more krav calls. I should really get a life, but I don't know where they're kept.
NOW the pork chops. With a mushroom stuffing.
OMG! THAT is where I know Diane Farr from!!!
Me too! I couldn't figure out why she looked so familiar when she joined Numb3rs.
and I hear the wheeerk?wheeerk?

sara has a lovely and pitch perfect froggie voice.
Day 4 of aching muscles and not the good aching. I am still blaming the weather; I hope I am right. I've added ibu to my morning and after dinner routine adn it seems to dull it some. massive amounts of grr.
msbelle, I hope you feel better soon.
Also, the reason I skipped to post now: since my browser keeps crashing today for no reason and the last time somebody tried to fix something on this computer, I didn't have internet access for a few days, I'll post already now that according to the Buffista Calendar, tomorrow, the 27th, will be JZ's birthday, and the following day, the 28th, will be a double Buffista birthday, of both DavidS and Deb Grabien (and her DH). I hope I'll be able to happy-birthday directly to their screens, but even if not, early wishes for all of them!
