Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Much ~ma to Zenkitty and Zenkitty mom. Also ~ma to Jars and Greg. Hope it's just some sort of flukey thing. For both, I'm hoping that the panicky bark is worse than the diagnosis bite.

Also, because I've been thinking of them, continued ~ma to NoiseDesign's folks and to d's dad. Have also been thinking about Beverly and her family. Hugs to you all.

ION, we finally have a TiVo, a wireless router, and a Wii. I feel so goddamned consumerist it makes me laugh nervously. However, the web surfing in the living room really makes all other financial and consumerist dilemmas sort of melt away. Heh.

Also, we went to a homebrew club meeting last night and it was fun. We met a whole bunch of beer geeks and Tom's beers were enthusiastically received. (his Session-strength Saison in particular.) I don't know what was more stressful for him- meeting a lot of new people at once or having people say nice things about his beer. He did great though, I'm really proud of him. He didn't even take an Ativan! (he forgot them at home)

Mostly lurking...

Nora, that sounds so fun! I remember you telling me about that...that you were thinking about going. So fun!

I need some resume advice. I'm updating my resume...and I'm making a copy that includes everything, but I want to do one more specialized for transcription. Should I include the little jobs I've had over the last few years, or just the more "big" jobs that included transcription work?

Cindy's readily reachable by email if anybody wants to check in. (I did.)

Woot! We're having billytea for lunch and vw for dinner. I think we'll roast billytea with marshmallows and braise vw in red wine.

Fava beans with vw? Are you nuts?

Clearly you'd go with root vegetables.

Nora! Saw you arrive at the depot this morning, but I guess you decided to wait for the train after the express (I was right by the door, so I was able to snag a good seat).

Glad to hear Tom handled the social situation well.

He hates cilantro, so avoid that.

Aha! In a unpredictable and wily maneuver (Not designed to avoid you, just out of my usual groggy habit) I went in the right hand side door and turned right heading toward the front of the train. Where I was also, surprisingly enough, able to grab a good seat.

FUCK. I seem to have misplaced my FIRST mortgage payment statement. So, while I have an idea of how much it is, I have no idea where to send it, what the loan number is, etc. FUCK.
