Everybody comes to town while I am elsewhere! Unfair!

Connie, I'm sorry to hear that.

Hec, much good wishes for your friend.

Today is made of fail. Fail, fail, fail. I am attempting to work from home today, because Tzepesh needed an emergency trip to the vet. Whitefonted for ooky: blood all over his butt. But other than that, there's nothing wrong. Tzepesh is his usual chatty, affectionate, playful self. But that's not a symptom to ignore, so off to the vet he goes.

To top it off, I can't log on to my work laptop so I can connect to the corpnet. Apparently it's been long enough since I logged on to it that I don't remember the password, and the only way to fix it is to take it to the office, connect to the corpnet there, and then have a technician come help me. I am NOT a happy cupcake of a goth today.

Congrats on the house having, -t!

The painted bricks are so very cool looking, vw. And Tep makes Waterbury, VT sound like a very yummy place to visit.

Happy birthday, Debet!

I'm sorry about the exhaustingly rough night, connie. I hope you and your dh are able to relax extra hard tonight.

Universe! Bring our happy cupcake of a goth back. Right Now. Stupid password issues Be Gone! And a bucket of It's Nothing ~ma for Tzepesh.

I still need to actually try sushi. Will have to work on that.

::back to the boxes. neverending boxes. packed, it now appears, by rabid monkeys ::

Happy house hazzing, -t! Hooray for housing!

Am now formulating Evil Plan to take Nicole to a sushi boat bar. This was how I ended the Sushi Virginity of some dubious diners: I'd say, look, you don't even have to pick it up if you think it doesn't look good! Now, my friends hate me for having started them on an expensive food habit. I recommend the Barbecue Eel and, of course, the California Roll. Mmm crab and avocado with sesame seeds.

Sox, is your friend the owner of the Waterfront? Am I remembering that correctly?

Katie! ::hugs and smooches Katie for DAYS:: I would gladly follow you to a sushi boat bar.

I'm such a baby when it comes to new foods. I was nervous as hell the first time I went to a vietnamese restaurant (maybe 7 years ago) but I'm so glad I did because vietnamese eggrolls are nothing short of heavenly. I also have a favorite vietnamese entree dish but I couldn't possibly tell you what it's called other than #12 on the menu at Kim Ba's.

I was nervous about dim sum, too, but now I have it at least once every couple of months, so I have high hopes of liking sushi.

Not sure if this is a migraine side effect or not but I keep getting sharp stabbing pains toward the back of my head. They are verging on scream-out-loud worthy, rather than just painful and annoying.

Congrats on the house-hazzing, -t!

I have never had gnocchi.

I've recently joined the ranks of the verified gluten-intolerant. I had heard quinoa was safe, but I hadn't tried it. Given all the recs, I will.

I would totally love one of those eco-friendly little hobbit houses. So very me.

Am enjoying Gloomcookie's shoe porn posts.

According to my statistics, in comparison to that article I am a ginormous slut.

This is me also! Sluts R Us. The whole "men have more sex partners than women because men are horny toads and women aren't really into sex" tripe makes me feel like an alien species. I've had more partners than anyone I know whose stats I know, with the exception of one woman who's like a porn star.

Besides, "Everybody lies about sex."

I don't! I'm distressingly honest. Really, I just can't be bothered to keep track of what lies I told. Also, have virtually no boundaries. shrug

No aftereffect of Fernet can possibly be worth it!

Hec, I'm so sorry about Karen! Much strength and health~ma to all of you! Does Emmett know?

lisah - yes, Ben.

It seems like he is in the newspaper every day! About opening the new restaurant? Miss Irene's? That's him right? I think I've been seeing him most mornings at the Daily Grind. At least that's what I've surmised from conversations I've overheard.
