I already had sushi, and didn't have to do any dishes.
I get to go to Denver tomorrow, which will be very cool, but I am also sad because I've had such a great time this week and now I have to leave.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Oooo Denver. . . There's a great sushi place in the Highlands area. Arghhh! For the life of me I can't remember its name. Best sushi I've ever had was from there.
Hmm. I'll have to ask Nicole about that.
Re: Oak Ridge: We left when I was pretty young, but I remember exploring in the woods around our neighborhood and finding tall chainlink fences topped with barbed wire just appearing in the middle of nowhere. I also remember that commercial airplanes were not allowed to fly over and were "escorted" away if they strayed.
It's near 32nd and Lowell just around the corner from Chipotle and across from a little deli called Heidi's.
Nukes freaked me out as a child but I can't remember any nuke nightmares then. My older brother did tell me stuff about how our military was the strongest in the world, so that make me feel safe until I got to Jr. high age.
Oddly enough, I did have a nuke nightmare around the time of the first Gulf war - I dreamt I was in Iraq when a nuke went off - it wasn't close enough to hurt me, except I was pretty sure I got a near-lethal dose of radiation. Oh, and for some reason I had to wade through a radioactive river. I remember thinking that I had a few hours to live.
Thanks!
They also have great drinks, and as far as the sushi goes, I'm a big fan of the Caterpillar. Enjoy your time in Denver! And, check out what the Question of the Day is in the bar and you might get a free drink out of it.
I remember when I was in hs and there was a tv movie about nuclear war. I think it was "The Day After." It totally freaked me out. I had the same feeling at the first ep of Jericho. No tears this time, though, just kind of sick to my stomach.
because (2) the sketches are NOT funny. They need to stop showing them.
I'm with you on this, Tep. The rest is just so good.
edited because The Day After is not exactly the same as The Morning After.
I had a middle school teacher who loved to talk about nuclear war and the effects of such on the skin of people. Nightmare material.
