And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

[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.

That Watergate Safeway is something else. And if you're near it, that pretty much means you're not near any other options.

Tell me about it. I used to work at the Watergate. All the stores sucked. Lunch was problematic at best.

Yep. There's now a Trader Joe's at 25th and L, but no regular grocery store that's not crap. At least farmers market season has started again -- there's a market next to the Foggy Bottom metro on Wednesday afternoons.

ION, snorting baking soda is not a good idea. (I was trying to deodorize a funky-smelling pillow. I tried the baking soda method -- sprinkle baking soda over the surface of the pillow, wait a few minutes, dustbust the baking soda off, smell gone. I got through the first several steps with no problem, but then when I tried to sniff the pillow to see if the smell was gone -- it was gone! -- I ended up at a patch of baking soda that I'd missed with the dustbuster. That stuff is gritty.)

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Heard from the DH. FiL is better. Yay! They think it was a reaction to BP and asthma medication and they are releasing him. They are turning around to go home and so no Passover dinner. We have friends (including Alibelle!) who are shooting a student film in our house tonight, so we are probably going to duck out and see a movie.

Yay, Scrappy! I'm glad he is ok.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm so glad for the FiL news, Scrappy!

That's great, Scrappy.

Good news, Scrappy! It must be such a relief to you all.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

Yay Scrappy for good news!

I am so sore and exhausted. But I'm going out for Greek food, and I might even get to see Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Also, it will be very interesting to watch the T&F part of the Olympics this year.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Want. BBCAmerica. Now!

In the first episode of the new season, we meet the Sheriff's long-legged and dominatrix-influenced sister (she's the dame with the snakes), who has bodyguards who stole their look from the Third Reich by way of Tom of Finland. Clearly, they are up to no good.
