my spanish lesson podcast is making me so hungry. They're in a tapas restaurant talking about tortilla espanola, croquetas de champinones and crema catalana. Tengo hambre para tapas!

Spike's Bitches 40: Buckle Up, Kids! Daddy's Puttin' the Hammer Down.
[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.
OMG, shutupshutupshutupshutup! You're making me SO hungry, with all this talk of sexy icecreams and yummy Spanish food!
!!!
...'kay, maybe I'll have lunch at the Japanese place next door. Hmm. Now if only it were nearly lunchtime...
But the ice cream wasn't GOOD, Fay!!
And I'm hungry too. But it's bedtime. So I will just have to wait for breakfast. If I were motivated, I'd get up and go get a real breakfast, but I will likely sleep in and hit up Starbucks instead. It's across the street, thank goodness.
shutupshutupshutupshutup!
it's OK. They're talking about the weather now. It's doing sun, apparently.
Freck.
CJ has 101.6 temp. Sent STBX to the store for some Tylenol as we are OUT.
I wish I could stay home with him tomorrow, but I have a busy day at work. Miss Senior (aka K-Bug) has offered to take a day off school to watch her little brother. Next week is a testing week for all the other grades, so the seniors have little to no class time anyway....
In Decatur, Georgia, when I lived there, they had put in place a policy that trash would only be picked up in special blue City of Decatur bags that you had to buy at stores for $1 a pop. You better believe people paid more attention to what they were buying and throwing out v. recycling/composting, etc.When I was in undergrad in Lancaster County, PA, they started a recycling program. Big Blue Bags for $2 (I think) and free recyvle for 1 & 2 plastic, papers, & Al. I was all over it! SWEET! The locals bitched BIG time. Until they realized just how much could be recycled. The county had a goal of 25% reduction in waste in 5 years. They had a 50% in the FIRST year. It was awesome!
But the ice cream wasn't GOOD, Fay!!
...I'm betting it was better than the tasteless, textureless sugar-free chocolate icecream that's the ONLY icecream I've had since December.
However, I have just eaten a small pot of almond paste, double cream and unsweetened cocoa with a dash of sweetener, and, by heaven, that was teh yum.
Note to self: Get on with making own damn low-carb icecream.
ok, hivemind question here. What is the best way to sort classical music CD's? My first instinct is by composer (Bach, Brahms, Dvorak, etc). But then I have some artists, like Yo Yo Ma, and I don't want them scattered around. So do I blow convention with those? Or do I say "who cares, I'm usually listening thru iTunes"? Curious what those that are more classically music orientated do?
Perhaps by what's most relevant? So if you bought it because of the composer, and can't actually remember who's playing, then use the composer, but if you bought it because you love the artist, then list the artist?
(But, you know, my approach to organising is just tottering piles of CDs in no particular order.)

Got another email memo from Boss - this one to everyone who works for him - the there is to be NO internet useage between 8:05a and 5:00p. If we violate this, we will be terminated. In order to enforce this, as of May 1, they will be installing spy-software on all of our computers to record keystrokes and take screen shots of the webpages we get on.
