Shit's all sorts of different now.

Welcome home, Robin! My brother lives in Minneapolis and loves it there. How did you like it?

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

Yep! I have a little pill jar in my purse with Benedryl in it. It's temporary Angelina Jolie lips for free, basically.

Mangoes. Love them, but the inside of my mouth peels away if I eat them. Whitefonted for ick factor.

mojito. I don't usually like any sort of mixed drink, but OMG the yum!

All this time I had no idea this was a drink. I thought it was something like a taquito. It sounds much more intriguing now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I had two lovely mangoes when I was just in Jamaica. People in my instructor group told me I missed a great training session on Saturday, or should have been there to teach on Sunday. Dude. Sipping rum punch and devouring Julie mangoes. Can compete with krav. Add the beach and the water, and I'm gonna have to get back to you. I'm busy doing not much.

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

Mmmm, avocados and mangos... Toss some crab on top and I'm a happy Cass.

Avocados are also delicious on taquitos.

And toast.

Damn, now I am hungry.

ita, you probably already know this but:

Sci Fi Channel's "Eureka" has struck ratings gold.

Two-hour Tuesday-night premiere was the highest-rated series telecast in the network's history, netting 4.1 million viewers.

"Eureka" topped the night on cable in overall viewers, adults 18-49 and 25-54. It posted a 1.3 national rating/4 share in 18-49 (1.7 million) and a 1.6/4 in 25-54 (1.9 million).

Premiere bested the debut of ABC's "The One" in total viewers and key demos and outscored the season opener of ESPN's "The Contender" and a new episode of FX's "Rescue Me" in overall viewership.

I eated avocado on toast and the avocado bit me back. Dropes... Why'd it have to be dropes?

Bless Benedryl.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Taquitos with avocado and a mojito! Yum. Mint + lime is so good.

I dare not get too excited about Eureka, because I still smart from the Coupling fiasco.

But that's damned cool.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think I have a problem with my brain being missing....

I managed to lose an iPod. My 60 gig video one.

Well, it's probably in my appartment somewhere. (I was hoping it was still at work, or in my car, but no dice.)

In violent-neighborhood news, there's a place I lived at in Minneapolis for 2 1/2 years - we had three murders within a block during that time. All were people killing people they knew, but one was a driveby shooting kitty-corner from our house....
