Cincinnati Is Cool.
Oh, dear. The author spent most of his time at all the most painfully hip* of hipster stores/restaurants/apartments. Of course he's going to be left with the impression it's cool.
*(The non-hipster places being, of course, Skyline and Graeter's; in fact, the specific Skyline and Graeter's locations are in my old neighborhood, and ones that I've taken many a Buffista to.)
At sundown, we headed for Ludlow Avenue, ground zero of the student-laden Clifton neighborhood, to sample an entirely different skyline. There’s no need to mince words here. In one meal, I became an official Skyline Chili crack whore. Give me the mild chocolate-cinnamon laced chili in a five-way (ladled over spaghetti with beans, onions, and cheddar cheese) or on a coney (a Cinncinati hot dog with mustard, chili, and onions), I don’t care. I wanted–and still want–more. Now please. Sooner if possible.
The black raspberry chip 1870 Tower sundae I inhaled down the street at Graeter’s French-churned ice cream helped a little bit, too.
Despite his kind hipster words, Cincinnati? Not. Cool. We're good with that.
Hey guys! Guess what? I might be working the inauguration for Close Up after all! Woot!
I'm loving the obama pics. This is my fave family picture of the moment: [link]

We elected people. That's what it is. Real, honest-to-whatsis, living actual lives with each other
people.

I believe I managed three 5-ways in four days.

The photo of Obama and Tammy Duckworth hugging gave me allergies....
Well, hell. Lewis just inadvertently broke a piece of our stoneware. The bitch of it is that it was an unusual piece to start with and the pattern's no longer made.
I'm almost afraid to look on Replacements.com

why is filling out financial forms so stressful? It makes me want to cry and I have bitten my nails down to nothing. I do. not. get. it. All it is is finding information (granted not always the least frustrating things given my files) and putting it on the paper. No formulas, no gauntlet to run.
I hate financial anything, as you well know.
I'm done for the day. Except I can't pick up the cat until a little after six, so it makes no sense to go home.
