Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

My folks are here, so that's what's happening this weekend.

Oh, as soon as I saw the sweet tea article I KNEW that I had to post it here -- didn't we just have a sweet tea conversation?

Another link found on Readerville - is it only my love of notebooks that makes the linkable notebook fascinating? Or is it an actual good idea?

I am oddly entertained by the silent video of guinea pigs and cucumber. Huh. Their little nibbly nibbling!

I saw "linkable notebooks" and immediately thought internet. I was so disappointed when I looked at the site and saw that's not what they're about.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I actually don't like sweet tea, but I love Luzianne with Too Much Lemon. Still, it's a tradition in my family too.

As a reward for such good links, sumi, I give you Freddy the fox It's this guy's amazing flickr set of a fox that visits his Colorado home.

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

Today is never going to end, is it?

Not from where I'm sitting.

Oh! But I just found jackass designer (who, by the way, was out of here at 5 on the dot) is outta here for good next week! And not because of anything I said, since I said it all to you.

(Although I think I shocked my new manager when she told me and my response was "oh thank god, I was about to stab him.")

'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"

Huh, I've gone to dinner and come back and still people are working?

I touched base with a very good recruiter who seemed actually excited to work with me. Trying not to get too excited in turn here. And the HR guy from my old job is still trying to get my medical insurance cancellation revoked, so at least there's a smidge of hope there, too.

I've never had Luzianne -- but Alton Brown went to their warehouse on Feasting on Asphalt last week. Very interesting. Plus - isn't it bound to be better than Lipton because it's not saving the "best tea" for the non- US market?
