Happy Anniversaries!

Not to question the recipe, but wouldn't the cornmeal be kind of gritty with only that much liquid and no soaking time? Maybe if you mix in a smurf?

It does have some texture (they're not at all fluffy like pancakes, much more solid), but that's the way we grew up liking it.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Thanks for the anniversary wishes! Hard to believe it's been five years!

We are going to see this band tonight: [link]

We've actually seen them perform quite a few times, but usually in our friend Jake's backyard back in LA. So excited to be seeing them again!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Happy Anniversary, Miracleborns!

Aimee, they're great! They're usually at the Dublin Irish Festival here in town (this year is no different). After they plan in AA, they're heading down my way for the festival this year.

They played the steerage band in Titanic.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I stayed home sick today, even though I could probably have gone to work. I wish I didn't feel guilty about it!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

bon - I so wanted to do the same thing, but I had just joked with my boss about taking "sick days" to get a break and then there's the whole thing that with mac and parents at my place - staying home is not really a break. I am thinking I may need to leave early and go to a movie.

you should feel NO GUILT!

Happy anniversary and birthday!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Jumping ahead to say how relieved I am that all my real-life/online connections are safe if inconvenienced in Minneapolis/St. Paul! (At least so far as I've heard yet.) I was offline last night, and not watching news, either, so it was a bit of a shock and worry this morning.
