Kitty~ma to Byron. We just visited Jo and she seems to be doing better. We got her to eat both times we visited and she purrs and is really happy to see us. I think they are all good signs.
ETA: You are welcome to come hang with us anytime, Miss Kristin!
Thanks, guys. This reminds me that I really need to update my CV -- I've been horrible about keeping it current, and it's impossible to try to remember things like the dates and topics of talks I gave years ago. Also need to decide what to do with my cash prize, once I find out how much it is.
Way to go, Hil! Impressive.

now, I thought that was about blueberry bagels.
now, I thought that was about blueberry bagels.
Now that you mention it, it may have been -- it mostly sticks in my mind as a general point about the blueberriness of everything, so I could easily have forgotten the specific trigger.
Is "blueberry" losing all meaning for anyone else?
x-posting with myself? Not nearly as much fun.
Au Bon Pain now has cinnamon struedel bagels, or something like that. Cinnamon crumbly stuff on top of the bagel. One of the most ridiculously "Eat a muffin, whitey" bagels I've ever seen. (I noticed it last Yom Kippur, when the fast was over and I really wanted a bagel, and I went there and the only kinds they had left were asiago cheese and cinnamon strudel. Neither of those remotely count as bagels. I ended up with soup and a banana instead.)
It was bagels, I'm pretty sure. But I think it TOTALLY applies to blueberry coffee, as well.
And now I want a fresh blueberry muffin, with nice real blueberries in it (not the kind you get at the store or coffee shop, which are so not the same)
Congrats, Hil!! That's awesome!
I just went to get my WA State license places (this is not at the DMV, or I'd deal with Annoying Recruiter Man's issue while I was there). It was quick and painless and only $125. Not too bad. Though I don't get a new title for six weeks, which is a bit creepy. Now I just have to put the plates ON.
AANNNNND, when I was driving home from that, I looked up, and WHOAH! BIG ASS MOUNTAIN! I dont' think I've ever been on the highway on a day when Ranier was visible, but today is sunny and blue sky and there's this GIANT MOUNTAIN LOOOOOOMING over the whole city! It's AWESOME.
