I got a comment on one of my flickr photos that is in another language! And I can't figure out what language! Actually, some of it seems to be in Spanish (basically, "I love the photo" and "Luck") but i couldn't figure this sentence out at all

sarameg! Do you know Atwater's in Belvedere Square? They make a chili cheddar bread. Available every day!

My god, you rock. I'm going to have to start leaving offerings on your porch or something.

And, um, do you know what the hell happened October 29 that is making my head hurt now? I swear, as soon as I know enough to not be the bubmling newbie, I'm making some rules here. But first, I have to know where we need rules. Hrmph.

hah! I have no objections! Of course, it was a pretty easy task. I just thought "I bet Atwater's has chili cheese bread sometimes" and then called them to confirm.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, I think we got the same boots, and I gotta say I'm not pleased

Bah. Luckily, I ordered them shipped to work, and there's an Aerosoles up the street, so not too much of a PITA if I have to return them.

When you know who the caller is, should you greet them by name, or just answer hello? And does this differ if it is a personal call rather than a business one?

I dream of caller ID at work.

Do it!!! ha!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

People think that Two Buck Chuck tastes better than a $35 dollar wine... If you tell them that you paid more for it: [link]

I doubt it's at all the same thing, but Au Bon Pain makes a really good chili corn bread loaf. I'm sure it's horrendously bad for you, so I try not to get it too often, but it's delish. And if you get them after 5 pm they're half price, but unlike a lot of their stuff they stay fresh for days.

I couldn't live without it. We also this cool Call Pilot program, where it just sends your voicemails as an attachment to your email, which rocks. The file name contains the number, too, so you can see the duration and the caller before you click the button.

The status is NOT quo.

Happy Birthday, msbelle!

Man, I miss having jeans Fridays. For people like me for whom every morning is a struggle to find something that fits/doesn't look like ass/isn't too dog haired or wrinkly, it made the whole week seem shorter and less stressful.
Oh, this is so me.
