I do, but only in my bedroom, and I only use it when I'm in bed. I am a cheap and/or hearty Yankee.

Me too!

The boyfriend is going to put one in his office too but I'm afraid he won't be able to run it AND his computer without tripping the breaker.

Someday we'll get the electric redone in this place. My new kitchen has as much electric running to it as the rest of the house combined.

I can't tell you how awesome 20amp circuits are. 2400 watts goes a long ways.

I would kill for that meal, tommy. Sounds delish.

I had a lot of trouble telling where one began and the other ended

That's what I'd read/heard quite exactly. Have you been following me around and whispering it to me?

Yes

It was delish. I'm lucky to have such a good place a block away from work....

Yes

I promise to start going more interesting places as soon as I get some money.

Timelies all!

Dinner will most likely be take-out Chinese. Which is perfectly fine by me.

ita, I just talked to my little sister, and even she said that the action was hard to follow and she couldn't tell which were the good guys and which were the bad guys when everything was blowing up. She wanted a TiVo to bloop-bloop past all the action near the end. But she said it was funny and generally liked it overall.

P-C, since I can't work out how anyone could have liked the first one, I guess you could like the second one just fine.

I had a panic. The Wimbledon coverage said that reporters had been asking Federer about MJ and Mandela. But it's okay. Mandela==still alive. Even Wimbledon coverage opened up with the news of MJ's death, which was a little much, and Serena apparently got more questions about him than about tennis, since they'd spent some time together.

And Andy Roddick had been complaining jovially that he gets more questions about Twitter than he does about tennis, but if he tweets about MJ's death, how will he not get more attention? Apparently his following goes up every time they show his feed on ESPN2--they refreshed the screen and showed an increase of 15 as they spoke yesterday.

I have been such a housewife today. Not a Real Housewife (lacking as I do in millions of dollars and multiple nannies) but a real housewife. Both kids at home. Spent the morning mopping the kitchen, dining room, living room, and Franny's bedroom. Then I got the slow cooker started making ground turkey and kidney beans for mac and beans, or American goulash, or whatever it's called. Made the kids lunch and then, on their recommendation, walked up to the local frozen yogurt store. Now I'm going to go wash the dishes.

I have to say it's been a nice enough way to spend the day, but I don't think I'd want to watch myself on tv. The kids maybe. They have been playing Animal Adventurers all day. The walk to the store = rain forest. Now they are wearing swim vests and pretending to explore the ocean.
