That's too bad that Alaska is giving you such a hard time, Vortex! Drew and I use them all the time and have always gotten good service, so I'm bummed to hear that isn't the case this time. Good luck sorting it all out.
Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[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.
I'm "working from home" and watching Bringing Home Baby on TLC. It's a gay couple who had twin girls via a surrogate. Is very cute.
Things That I Took A Chance On At Trader Joe's Report:
Lightly Salted Crunchy Green Beans-- they're like, dried green beans? freeze dried maybe, or something. and salty. they're YUM. mostly just crunchy and a little salty (but not toooooo salty--slightly less than potato chips--you can see the salt on them, but if you tried to lick it off, it wouldn't do much for ya). The green bean flavor is not super strong or concentrated, but it's definitely there. I'm not a huge fan of green beans, I like them OK as a side vegetable, but they're not my favorite, so I was a little worried these would be too strong, but they're not.
Two thumbs up!
Sadly, they don't seem to be especially GOOD for you--130 cal/serving, 4 servings/bag (I'd say that's probably not toooo far off--3 would be more realistic, maybe 2 if you were really hungry but they seem fairly filling). 4.5 g fat, because the second ingredient is canola oil, but no saturated fat. 20 g carbs, 4 g fiber, 5 g sugar (?), 2 g protein. 15% of your vitamin A.
My apartment got loads better today. They delivered a brand new washer! Yippee! Fixed the slow draining tub (like 10 minutes to drain from a shower slow!), fixed the garbage disposal, and got the wheel thingies for the dishwasher bottom rack. Now to do loads of laundry! Oh boy do I know how to live large on a Friday night!
My kids love those things, meara.

Ok, that's just really fucking funny. Loads! Ha!
Yeah. All I got. Long week.
Nicole, do you have a sec to jump on AIM?
nice to see my subtle puns appreciated.

I do appreciate them. I do this all the time with the boys. My older son always catches them, usually with rolling eyes. But now I catch him doing the same thing. At least he picked up one good habit from me.
PixKristin: Do you or ND have a shipping account with UPS or FEDEX or DHL or something. Cause if you do then I think you can arrange for the Starbucks to ship you your phone at your expense. (Maybe you can do this with a credit card regardless of account. Also if you are in the same town you might arrange a messenger service.)
