Yeah, go email her right away cuz there may be time. And it is slackers after all.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Punishingly Intricate
Jessica, hope your coworker can still use the recs! There are a million good places to eat near enough to the Inner Harbor & Hopkins (I'm guessing medical campus?) especially if they have a car. Some of my faves:
The Helmand (Afghani = loads of vegetarian options!)
The Brewers Art (Belgianesque, exceptional beer
Arcos (very good Mexican in Fells Point
Mehek (very good Indian in Fells Point
I haven't been here yet but the group's other restaurants are very good.
Cighiale (the enoteca is supposed to be very good and less expensive)
If you need any other options let me know! (now let's see if I got my formatting right.)

hip deep in pie
I just realized that the odd piece of metal lying on the ground by my front steps is a piece of flashing from around my chimney. It must have come off in the wind last night. I guess I call a roofer about this? Wait, my roof is under warranty. I wonder if that is just for the shingles...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Recruiter called me this morning and I didn't answer. I called to apologise before I checked the call log--he called at 7am. Isn't it the caller's responsibility to not call me on eastern time? I mean, I don't know where he's calling from, and he knows where he's calling.
I wonder if it'll count against me? Although I'm pretty sure it's the wrong position.

I have some shopping to do, but I'm scared.
As you should be. Target was a blessed madhouse today.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I think calling at 7:00 on a saturday puts the blame solidly on him.
eta: I made it to Target, Ulta. Costco, Bed Bath and Beyond, Walgreens, and Trader Joes this morning, and Walgreens was by far the worst.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Lisah, thanks! I've forwarded the list (I think they were driving down today, so as long as he checks his email before dinner they should still be useful).
So far today I've been to Williams-Sonoma, Whole Paycheck, and The Container Store. Dear god, I've turned into a yuppie.
Just got back from a family walk in the park, cut short by it being FRACKING FREEZING OUT THERE. And somehow, it's supposed to reach 60 again on Monday. W.T.F. weather?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I haven't gone out yet, and now I'm scared.
brenda, I haven't gotten an email from Nilly either. Extra-slacky slackers, you still have time to email her!
