Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

ARGH. I am ready to explode with irritation at a student. And a student I even like.

Must take deep breaths. Must not yell or maim. Must remain calm.

Weekend: No plans! I do have to Clean the house. It's getting desperate.

Other than the usual bookstore shift tomorrow, I have no plans except my usual intention to clean my apartment. Now, if I actually do so, I'll be ahead of the game! I started with taking all my garbage out to the dumpster this morning, and laundry has to be done first thing tonight, as well as dishes.

Oh, and I do want to finally get caught up on the last six episodes of Dollhouse, starting with the ep I have to buy from iTunes (Hulu no longer has it for free) and then I get to watch and delete the others off my dvr.

We also cross paths with Kentucky's 400-Mile Yard Sale, which should make the drive extra exciting.

Is that the World's Largest Yard Sale I've seen on HGTV? IIRC, it runs through Georgia and Tennessee as well as into Ohio. It looks pretty neat, but the traffic they show on TV is horrendous.

I had hoped that Watergate Salad, a staple of potlucks in the '70s, had disappeared from the planet. I just got an e-mail from GE featuring it [link] The only GE appliance it requires is a refrigerator.

No, this one is a little shorter. It runs along U.S. 68 across Kentucky. I am afeared of the traffic.

Now tagless for your comfort.

We're hosting a cookout on Saturday. It's probably going to rain and not hit 50 degrees.

Hey SF-istas! My boss is moving to your vicinity soon and we're putting together some city stuff for her as a going away thing.

Can anyone throw me some recommendations in the way of vegetarian/vegan restaurants? She's something of a foodie, but any favorites would be great to know about.

It's gorgeous today, but looking at the 7-day forecast, they're predicting a lot of rain--big surprise, I know (we're having the rainiest spring since 1921, and so far we're at #10 on the rainiest springs ever list).

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm a fan of Herbivore. And although I've never been there, there's always Cafe Gratitude.

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

Cafe Gratitude scares me.
