I neglected to mention the pretzel and iced tea are from exactly the same place.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Catching up, very very late:

Kat, that's appalling. I'm glad you called the school police on those kids, and only partly sorry you stopped K from tearing into them on the spot. Threatening Noah? Absolutely no excuse for it, none at all.

{{{Tamara}}} I'm so sorry for your loss. Your aunt sounds like an amazing person, and it sounds like her passing was about as loving and graceful as any of us could hope for; still, too soon and too sudden.

Also, Kalshane! Any new Mattias pictures?

ION, I had TJ's Indian food for lunch, and am completely unsatisfied. It was very tasty, it just wasn't enough. And our farmers market was yesterday, so I've already missed the good cherries. Also, my eye itches. It's okay if I just go home and eat a giant bag of chips and an apple, right?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

eep! They had to run a scan on my computer at work because scary pop-ups were taking over and trying to download things. I swear I did not go anywhere bad. Now I fear they'll be watching my internet use.

Hivemind question - "empty temporary internet files when browser is closed" good thing to do or no?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

You can add me to the group who are horrified at the HS students' behavior. Threatening a baby?!? WTF is wrong with people?

I think I'm going to take the kids swimming at G'ma's this afternoon. If Isaac wakes up soon.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Well, I ended up going out to lunch with a co-worker who expensed the meal because we talked about one of our products which is near and dear to my heart. Funny that she expensed it because I always talk about that product anyway.

So ended up with yummy panini from crowded little restaurant in BH.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Ugh. In local news.

We have a thunderstorm here and I'm pan frying sea scallops for dinner tonight.

OMG you guys. This is brilliant. I'm at an outdoor concert for the Bastille Day festival. The singer, a jazz singer in the Edit Piaf vein, is filming the show for a concert video. And a homeless man, all bundled up in 95 layers and carrying big bags, just came and plopped down right in front of the stage and is lying on his back conducting along. He's clearly having a grand time, and consequently so am I. I'd take a picture but it feels rude.

That's awful, Cashmere. And I want to smite the living fuck out of two of the three commenters on that article. Two young, barely out of college men who are practically still kids are abducted, chained in a basement with their chains rigged up to shotguns pointed at their heads, and sexually assaulted, and people are making cracks about Silence of the Lambs and a possible boost to local tourism? Scum.
