Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If nothing else, I would never be able to pee with someone waiting outside the door for me.

Coding and Sleeping

Well, whatever floats their collective boat I suppose. I think I'd go insane in about 24 hours.

Cashmere, are you around? How long does it take to get to downtown from the airport in Columbus, assuming no luggage and a taxi.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

My dad liked sandwiches made of peanut butter and butter mixed together.

Well, before they took the vows of togetherness, they also did a 3 YEAR silent retreat in a yurt outside of Tucson that has no running water nor electricity (the yurt in which they still live).

The PB&J restaurant in NYC's "Elvis" is:

A grilled peanut Butter sandwich, stuffed with bananas and honey. Try it with bacon for that extra indulgence. Long live the King!

Amateurs. There's a place near me that takes all of that and then turns it into French toast. Now that's a breakfast that'll kill you.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

They wanted me to crash vegan potluck parties and get into the inner circle of terrorists because supposedly terrorists are trusting

1) I thought the whole point of the 1970s was the discovery that crunchy-granola lefties are just not with-it enough to create any kind of vast conspiracy?

2) If terrorists are so trusting, how come we have not carpet-bombed the Afghan-Pakistani border with Hello Kitty stationery and messages that say "Please write with your new address! I love having a pen pal!!"

3) Vegan.... potluck? Why do I suspect that the chief conspiracies discussed at same would be evil plots to cook beans in such a way as does not inspire gas?

4) Apparently, tofu makes you gay. I'd totally forgotten that one! Oh, I needed that laugh.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

You marmalade chuckers make me SAD.

I marry marmalade, but have frequent flings with jam.

Sometimes, I even do the jelly.

A canner just can't chuck this stuff, I fear.

I like currant jam on my sandwiches.

Now tagless for your comfort.

With no traffic, brenda, 5-10 minutes.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

All-girls school on Staten Island enacts rule that girls cannot attend prom without a male date. [link]

That's fucking ridiculous. Way to shame the shy girls, Interim Principal!

"Feralberry jam." Which is still my favorite name for a fruit spread.

Thanks!

Totally yummy!

Also, the inevitable question: chunky or creamy?

I used to be a chunky-or-nothing kind of gal. Then literally overnight, I started hating chunky (although I *will* eat it if there is no creamy to be had).

The best way that The Boy can keep me from stealing his PB and eating it (he takes 2 PB&Js to work every day, so his PB needs are not insignificant) is to buy that nasty lower-sugar PB. I won't go near that for love or money.
