omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

same reason I'm not.?.

OK, so maybe I kinda fell asleep in front of the altar new TV. Now I'm wide awake again wondering what time the cable dude will arrive to give me proper Cable & Internet.

I was asleep. Then I woke up. Now I'm guzzling water (really thirsty lately, for some reason) and making sesame noodles, because I'm hungry and that's pretty much all I've got the ingredients for.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Meara - it sounds like the beans and the other things you mentioned are pretty much South East Asian crunchy snack foods, so just in case you happen to see the following, I am particularly fond of (and would thus recommend):

the crunchy broad beans (available salted, chili-coated etc),

the crunchy little fried anchovies,

the seasoned crunchy clams. Nom nom nom - and protein! (Although the beans are quite carby too, alas.)

Those sound interesting. I'm probably heading over to Trader Joe's sometime later today; I might see if they've got the green beans.

My air conditioning, once again, is barely working. I've got both air units on, plus a fan, and it's nearly 80 degrees in here. Hmm. This could explain why I've been waking up every three hours or so feeling totally dehydrated.

I haven't gotten much work done this week. Or last week, either, really. I need to get some more motivation. The post-it with "May 2009" written on it stuck on the wall behind my desk isn't really doing enough to make me actually get this dissertation done by then. Perhaps I'll replace it with some pictures of places I could go on the trip I'm planning to take after I graduate.

Oh, it's ok Nicole. I decided to just go to bed. I may e-mail you later...

Timelies all! I slept for 12.5 hours. I think I was tired.

vw, stole all the sleep. I got about 4 hours. I see a nap in my future.

Oh, sj! That sucks! I'm sorry. I didn't mean to steal all the sleep!

move out and draw fire

I was all set to sleep in today, but the DH got up at 5:45, the child got up at 7:00, and the painters got here at 7:30. Gronk.

Normally I don't believe anything I read in the Washington Times. I mean, normally I don't READ anything in the Times. But they are bagging on DHS...but dude, shock collars for all passengers? It's like The Onion. [link]

Oh, I heard about that Raq! It's craziness!

In totally unrelated news, I finally got my newest quilt and fairy tale up on my website: [link]

For once, I do recommend reading the comments. That's some fine wackjobbery going down in there. Microchips! Gun control! Big Brother!
