Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Coding and Sleeping

I'm using Google Docs and the clear implication is you could get rid of Microsoft programs.

Ubuntu Linux + Open Office == No Microsoft for me.

Aimee, does Em like rice? Now I'm hungry for naan.

Does anyone here prefer Blockbuster's online service better than Netflix? I'm being lured by their tv ads.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

samosas (fried dumpling things with potato inside)
chicken tikka masala (a nice mild curry, very popular)
chicken or veggie biryani (rice dish with nuts and meat and.or veggies)
saag paneer or palak paneer (spinach with chunks of a very mild cheese)
dal (lentils, if you like that kind of thing)
as for naan, I'd go for plain, or garlic if you are a garlic fan.

They should also have tandoori, which is basically roasted chicken or lamb, pretty low key.

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

Chicken tikka masala is a pretty safe choice -- tangy and spicy but not usually too hot. (If heat is a concern, stay away from anything vindaloo.) I always order plain naan because it goes with everything.

Any kind of biryani is good -- again, complex flavors but not usually too hot. (Depends on the restaurant, though.)

For appetizers, I always order aloo papri, which is like a potato and chickpea salad with a chutney-yogurt dressing.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Em does like rice.

Our wings are not tired

You should be all right with a korma as well. I love lamb korma.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

The reason I chose Netflix is because Blockbuster used to edit the movies they rented. I don't know if they still do or not, but I prefer not to have my movies sanitized for my protection.

Umm, now I want to eat dinner at the Miracleborns!

Despite my lovely dinner of a nice whole wheat pasta and green beans with a cream sauce and parmesan cheese, I now want Indian Food.

I love that Leif calls his stuffed animals "puffed" animals.

That would be a deal breaker for me. DH wants to try it not because it's cheaper (which it is) but because we could run to the Blockbuster store down the street and do a quick exchange if we hate the movie we're watching. I dunno. There is also free coupons for game rentals, too.

I'm just naturally predisposed to hate Blockbuster.
