Salvadoran? What is that cuisine like?
Salvadoran is very like Mexican, I think; but they do fried plantains with black beans and cream, which are AWESOME. Also, they do pupusas, which are sort of pita-ish bread stuffed with cheese and pork or vegetables, oh so tasty. Oh, and served with a cole-slaw type of thing. Also they do fried yuca (which I don't love but it's okay). Others had steak and enchiladas and one huge whole fried fish. It's good food but very filling. I feel like I should have a salad for lunch.
I don't want my new TV to feel bad, but when I just took the box out to the alley to throw it out, I put it down next to the box of a new TV 10" bigger. Heh.
It is disgusting outside. We were at the US OPEN Arthur Ashe Kids Day and it was too hot, humid and not good for a wheelchair. feh. maybe next year.
Sorry to hear that, msbelle.
It rained here.
Not over a wide area and not for long. But I'm acclimated to the LA norm enough that all I could do is stare in confusion.
Rain? Middle of the day? August? Aroo?
I am cleaning. I feel like I deserve a pony, or at least a cupcake.
Popping in abot a billion year after the conversation ended to say that the world is a very small place. Jilli and I discovered that the Latke Fairy is actually a mutual friend. I went to college with her briefly, and she was the very first person I stayed with the first time I went to Seattle, all the way back in 1996. Weird!
Also, in terms of Halloweeny stuff? We have a local floral/crafty type store that take up an entire city block here in Pasadena. At Halloween and Christmas they devote the ENTIRE store to decorations. It's insane and really kind of cool. I think that Jilli and other likeminded Halloweenies should all come down and bask in its spooky glory with me.
Jesse, I'm so sorry you're dealing with this credit card fraud still, and msbelle I'm sorry that the weather prevented you and Mac from enjoying the day.
Happy Anniversary, Jessica & FoneBone!
Yeah, it's grody out. But I did laundry! Still haven't done my work. I guess now I know what it takes for laundry to be the preferred procrastinatory task!

Dude, seriously???
Seriously??? OMG, that's awesome! See? E is another reason you need to visit!
Seriously. Isn't that beyond strange? Jilli started talking about her friend E. on the phone the other day, and I thought, "I know and 'E' in Seattle...but it can't be!" Turned out it could be and is!
I can't wait to see her again! I've been out of touch with her since that visit, so it's been a long time.
