mmm, looks great!

Talking about SF burritos always reminds me of this lovely piece of alternate-reality food lore: The Alameda-Weehawken Burrito Tunnel.

Great reading for the science-geek foodie.

I have a couch and a chair-and-ahalf!! Whoo!

They aren't in my house yet, but I went to a furniture store outlet and got both for what I was looking to spend on a couch. They are comfortable and neutral colored.I'm not in love with the color but it's a neutral and had all the things I was looking for.

I'm waiting for the moving company to call me about getting it delievered although it may be tomorrow.

Don't think I'll get to curl up on it and watch the game this week but that will be in my future.

Keep track of poll-based estimates of electoral college tallies:

In the news of sleeping in, I'm afraid I stole everyone else's sleep. I passed out in evil chair around 1ish, woke up around 5ish, stumbled to bed, and woke up around 1ish. Ya, I wish I could do that again. Alas, work won't let me.

Cool, Askye! You got a link to pictures? I had a chair=and a half in my old apartment and it was the PERFECT reading chair.

We are going out today to look for a chandelier for our Dining Ell. It has a Haywood Wakefield table (check this link [link] and look at the console table and china cabinet to see what we have). Being Buffistas, we don't want anything expensive, frou-frou or fugly. Classic but not boring is the idea. I want a hanging fixture with some sort of cool semi-period details, while DH is dreaming of a plain white inverted pendant. I foresee crankiness in the aisles of Lamps Plus Outlet store.

Woot! My state is barely blue! Of course this is no guarantee that they will count it right. My beloved county is still recounting the last vote we had a month or so ago. Every time they scan the votes they come up with another number. sobs not so quietly

Woot! My state is barely blue!

Mine too!!!

Of course this is no guarantee that they will count it right.

Ugh. Mine, too.

What's interesting to me is that North Carolina is a statistical tie, given the (mostly) large percentages that the Republican presidential candidates have garnered there in the last 4 presidential elections.

I hate to even hope that Obama's going to take it, given how the 2004 election crushed me (and that's not an exaggeration, particularly given that my state's election fraud is probably what gave the election to Bush), but it's looking more and more like he really really is.

Please Vishnu.

I've been saying for months now that this place is gonna flip, and does anyone listen?

I really regret that we no longer live in NC to vote for Obama, because NC is a possible, while GA is really a long shot.

The African American turnout for the primary in Durham NC was astonishing. It made a lot of races other than the presidential primary turn out in surprising ways.

t snif I regret that you no longer live in NC for totally different reasons.
