[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Restaurant Week is a week or two when participating restaurants offer a special prix fixe that's (in theory*) cheaper than either their normal prix fixe or ordering a la carte. It's supposed to let you try out restaurants that would otherwise be out of your price range.

Before this year, the prix fixe used to be the year, most of the time, but I've noticed that most Restaurant Weeks are bumping them up nowadays. ($30.06? WTF is that supposed to be?)

*I say "in theory" because, at least in NYC, it doesn't always work out that way. When they're offered, the RW lunch specials are normally a much better value than the dinners.

the A's owning the Mariners this year.

Yes, they do. And I was there last night to watch #15 in person. Gah, it was beautiful.

AL West is such a weird division.

True dat.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

I sympathize with all the migraine sufferers. Today I woke up with a headache as big as Kansas and the urge to heave. Three hours and two pieces of bread later the tummy is slightly more settled, but the head still kills. Blech. Fortunately work doesn't start for me until this afternoon, but ugh. I don't know how you guys do it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Is someone missing their gronk this morning? I seem to have more than I should.

move out and draw fire

Mallory was awake from 4:00 am to 5:30 am, so I have had nothing but gronk today. It's almost 7 pm (and still 100 degrees), and I'm still engronkified.

I hate waiting. Friends from Jordan are getting in today and we're supposed to have dinner and they haven't called yet. I'm hungry. Dinner is probably two hours off still.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'm a little gronked. Em woke up twice last night. The first time I rocked her and sang to her and put her back down, but 45 minutes later she was up again crying for "milky! milky!" In Eminese, this is "please bring me a sippy cup with any liquid in it." I gave her her water sippy and she grabbed it and laid back down. She cuddled it like it was one of her babies. Not a peep out of her the rest of the night.

I changed my alarm last night to 4:45 am (from 4:00 am) and forgot to turn it back on. I woke up at 5:02 on my own.

So wrong. So absolutely wrong.

I'm hungry and forgot to bring any breakfast with me. Blarg.
