And shit, now *I* want to go! Nora, you and Tom should go if at all possible!
If you went, we would *definitely* go.
It's tempting, but a quick check of plane tickets is close to $400.
MAN, I'm tempted, though.
Eggs. The living legend needs eggs. Or maybe another milk.

Oooh,Wall-E is finally out. YAY! I must have it. And then I can make Mike watch it with me tonight.
The new place we're in has two sets of stairs that the cats LOVE to play on - the result being very furry stairs. Do those of you with stairs (and carpeting) just drag the vacuum up and down the stairs and use the attachment, or do you use a seperate hand held machine?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Blearg. Just woke up. Thanks for the thoughts last night, everyone.
Right now, torn between wanting to find some food and wanting to go back to sleep.

ROAD TRIP! It's thanksgiving weekend, after all. Leave on Friday, stay over somewhere and then finish the trip on Saturday!
Although, hm, that would be a tough Sunday.

With this much Tylenol and ibuprofen, how in blue bloody blazes do I have a headache?
I found out the hard way when I was on a prescribed 2400mg of ibu a day that it can GIVE you headaches in large quantities, as well as take them away.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
vw, the Timex Expedition line has some digital watches with a more classic watch look to them. Here is a compass watch that I find quite handsome: [link]

ack! the Buffistas need to stay healthy and pain-free!
A few health notes - WS, when I get a sinus infection I usually get a raging sore throat from the post-nasal drip. Do you have anything you can use to rinse out your sinuses? (a nasal lavage in doctor-language) Warm salt water gargles help and, afterwards, hot tea with lemon and honey usually help me.
Sean, sorry to hear about all the misery you and S have been through - glad to hear she's home. And you CAN recover from a stroke - I'm at about 98% of what I was before. A little slower, my memory isn't what it was, but I'm doing well. It took me about six months before I was anywhere near better, and I was phenomenally lucky. Best wishes for both of you - and do take care of yourself.
And, on the lighter side, in re watches - I once had a little digital watch called a Digi-Robo. The watch part had a little cover that flipped off and it could be popped off the band and arms and legs unfolded so you had a free-standing robot. I had a lot of fun with that - the crystal display burned out or something. sigh.

{{{beth}}} It is so hard losing a pet.
{{{Sean & S}}} Sounds like S got very lucky. I hope it holds for her. I also think the move closer to family is a very very very smart thing for her.
{{{WindSparrow}}} I hope you're feeling better soon!
You, too, ita.

I've done both. My current "big" vacuum is a very light Eureka Optima - can lift it with one finger.
And, vw, I'm thinking your best bet is a Nike Oregon, or one of the Timex Expedition watches. I'm sorry, after a while, they all start repeating, and I haven't seen anything new in a quite a few pages/searches.
