You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Eh. I still don't really like most chocolate. I mean, it's OK, but I like a lot of other things much better. Given a dessert menu, I'm far more likely to pick something fruit-based than chocolate-based.

Matilda definitely likes chocolate. Emmett fed her some tonight and she was stuffing that into her cheeks like a squirrel.

The status is NOT quo.

For humor: Some pictures of the day my Shepherd Zoe arrived and Seamus met his very first dog...

“Not dead yet!”

Can't see the pics. Bummer.

erika, your boyfriend went to town on McCain last night during Letterman. And I think the last time I found Letterman that genuinely funny was about 1995. Keep going, McCain, you're giving people tons of material at the very least.

Dude, give me some dark chocolate. I'll be happy.

Chocolate is an essential food group. And dark chocolate? Food of the gods.

I told my kindergarten class that ice cream & chocolate was a food group, because that was what my mother always said. (Still says.) I am in the-darker-the-better chocolate camp and won't usually bother myself with milk chocolate.

Last night I told the part-time people that we're going to hire a full-time person to work the evenings (that they currently cover). One of them got into a huff and has, I think, resigned. Not much of a loss, since I was sick of dinging her for being late (and lying about it), but the Big Boss may be upset by this turn of events.

I like both dark and milk chocolate; they appeal to different cravings. Dark chocolate with bits of crystallized ginger is my current favorite.

Our wings are not tired.

Mmmmm. Dark chocolate. This sounds good for breakfast, and yet I have none.

Dark chocolate with bits of crystallized ginger is my current favorite.

Dark chocolate with sea salt is mine. I know that I've said this before: ginger, to me, is medicinal [motion sickness], so I shy away from it as a food flavor.

Someone brought doughnuts in to work, which are not chocolate, but still improve my morning.

I'd like to try both of those versions of dark chocolate.

Olbermann on Letterman was hilarious. So, during the monologue did Letterman not know that McCain was actually in the building?

Curious.

Has Seamus' let his fur flatten out again?

I love the cats taking advantage of the big new beds. And then poor Zoe lying on the floor.
