Yes, it's now tradition.
Yay!
I'm bringing Nutty's ginger-apple-pie recipe for if I get ambitious. OTOH, 20 people and only one pie? Might be a problem... We'll see.
Okay, off to load the car, bring the new dog to my sister's house (where she will have to cohabit with the St. Bernard all weekend, oh the horror), and hit the road.
Have a lovely weekend, Buffistas! Be safe!
I have no idea why this is bothering me so much.
Like others have said, sometimes it's very important to draw lines. I would consider it inappropriate to ask anyone to take time off work to care for a person who isn't a relative or a close friend.
Maybe I'm not a good person, but I wouldn't agree to care for an adult suffering from these kind of severe neurological problems just because she happened to be my neighbor.
Um, I'll watch my neighbor's dog while she goes to the ER, though!
OTOH, 20 people and only one pie?
Er, my experience is that three people can finish off a pie, if they have seconds. Perhaps I cut generously. For 20 people, at least 3 pies. Do you have a cook's assistant? That's a lot of apple-peeling.

I'm curious about this grant. Everyone else seems to be creating (or researching) something. Unless she's somehow involved in the composition process, I don't get it.

I was psyched to see Dawn Upshaw get one. Spider Silk Biologist? Also cool.
Corey Harris? Feh. That's the kind of blues I don't like. Academic blues.

I just found out that Clarence Thomas is going to be on the Rush Limbaugh show.
That's really not okay, right? Seriously?

It's kind of fun.

Sad but true. Or I could revel in the innovation that goes on around me.... I bet Geoff Canada has one, too. Edit: Ah ha -- he doesn't. OK, I guess I can stop being organizationally jealous now.
