Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Also also, hope you feel better sj! I was very, very ill in work one day this week, and the entire office managed to convince me I was pregnant. Assholes. I'm not, by the way.

I am, thanks, and I'm sorry about the asshats in your office. I already had my doctor scare me with that this week, so it is definitely not pregnancy. Just stomach wonkiness.

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

I had to choose between margaritas and pina coladas yesterday. I went with pina coladas and bought some maraschino cherries and little plastic cocktail animals (I got a red mermaid, D got a green bull) and the blender is now back in its rightful place in the kitchen!

Oh, sj, that's no fun! I hope you feel better soon.

My previous comments re: up in trees, stand.

Hee! I just dropped him off at the airport. He's on his way to SF for the week. Crazy how a week ago I didn't know this person and now I'm like, "You're going to be gone a whole week?"

ETA: In CBD likes bacon news, he had bacon for breakfast.

You may now return to your previously scheduled Bitching.

sj I'm glad you're feeling better.

vw I'm so digging the ongoing saga of CBD. I'm wondering if I'm crazy enough to try that dating service myself. You are so brave! Would you mind telling a little bit more about how you decided to go for it and what the process was like for you?

Laga, it was kind of on a whim that I signed up for it. I actually signed up several months ago, but couldn't get my cell phone validated, so I gave up. Then a few weeks ago, I decided to try it again, and tada!

I'm not sure I'm actually that brave. I just decided I wanted to get back out there, and that a few practice dates would be good. I didn't expect to actually meet someone...and maybe that's why I did...or something...

If you want more info, you can e-mail me specific questions, and I'll try to answer. Honestly, I only went on two dates with the site. CBD was my second date. I got pretty lucky.

Tons of ~ma to your friend, Sox. I hope they can make the baby wait.

We've started our brunch cooking for tomorrow. So far we have finished the cranberry orange bread, the espresso brownies are in the oven, have made iced tea, and decided what dishes things are going to go in.

So is there anywhere to go hang gliding in DC, Sparky?

There are some spots way out in VA and MD. For hang gliding you need some open space and few power lines, or a cliff facing the correct direction. Thus the towing at some airports around here that provide the open space and give you a tow up.

Lots of ~ma to your friend Sox.

sj, if I get in the car now will you save me an espresso brownie?

In real-life buffista see-ing, we're going to bonny's yappy hour tonight, but there are thunderstorms around so I don't know that we'll be able to eat outside at one of the restaurants there with the puppy.

Bay Area istas! Be on the lookout for CBD Bacon Guy and make sure he knows he'd better keep treating vw right!
