I don't think that there is -- this is a small town.
I think part of what is both frustrating and freaking me out is that I'm feeling like I'm seeing a glimpse into my future and it's scary - you know to not be able to do stuff and also not really have people who can help you out. (I mean, I have people who would -- if they were here but the people I'm closest to don't actually live in any great proximity to me.
Okay, so I had some chocolate, iced my leg (now I'm all chilled), cuddled the cat Ivan and watched a bit of Pirates of the Caribbean. Feeling m uch better now. Up to going downstairs and checking on the boiler.
Congrats, Kalshane!!
Great, so tomorrow morning, I get to angst about xmas shopping?
Nah, you'll be out of the woods as long as you're not angsting about raising children.
So I only bought one thing that may be for me, but ended up taking a long walk through the Village, which was great. I saw carolers! Now I have a beer.
I have thoughts of making black bean soup tomorrow, so that's why I needed.... a six pack.
Ah - are you making black bean soup along the lines of this recipe:

The nice thing about it is it uses only one bottle (or can) of beer in the soup. So you still have five left for drinking.
Oooh, black bean soup. YUM. Maybe I should make some soon.
Yup, right along those lines, except I don't really use a recipe.
By the way, I came across an amazing blog for foodies the other day: [link]
Congratulations, Kalshane!
I looked at that Snopes page. Yeah, talk about undermining the message.
Frankly, the first and last of the unaltered photos still fit the bill of "skeletal" in my opinion, no Photoshop needed.
Congrats, Kalshane!
Man, this spring and summer is going to be busy with small bewildered new people. I think I need a spreadsheet.
Talking to my brother last night, he said his wife is FOUR months along. If he was correct (he can be, um, fluid with dates and times) that means SIL was 2 months or more pregnant before they figured it out. Which. Um. In any case, this pregnancy has been much easier on her than the first.
When I was at the bookstore today, I asked if they could look up a couple books to see if they had them. They didn't, but offered to order them, which I politely declined. You could practically see the
fine! I know you are going to go buy them online you jerk!
form over the clerk's head. It was kinda sad.
