'Shindig'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
For those who share my love of Mike Rowe, he has a website called mikeroweWORKS.com, [link] wherein he talks about working, the people who work, has some videos of people working, and has links to various and sundry things Dirty Jobs-related and not.
mmm, Mike Rowe . . .
So, while we're talking about San Francisco -- I'm going to be there for a conference in January. What kind of weather should I expect? What kind of neighborhood is the Moscone Center in?
I think I've owned a house with a yard for too many years to be able to cope with San Francisco this side of suddenly coming into millions. I know my genealogy too well to hope for a mysterious bequest.
The line for flu shots was in the pediatric area, and a couple of boys who looked around 4 were watching Dora, who is being chased by bad guys in a castle. One little boy says excitedly, "They don't know what's under there!" Another says, in world-weary tones, "Oh, *they* know. They just ask us because it's more educational."
It looks like Rowe is dipping his toe in public policy, just a hair. Talk about dirty jobs... Good for him, though.
Hivemind medical question for cysty ovarian buffistas - I'm waiting on a call back from my doctor but has any one had a cyst that started to intermittently throb? I've been super stressy and migrainy and now this is happening. Any wisdom welcome. Or distraction from googling this and coming up with bad stuff. I skipped the last 150 posts and I will try to go back and read.
That, and there are pictures you can set up as desktop backgrounds. I now have one of him sitting on a boat and grinning.
Shallow R Me.
I have Keith Olbermann as my desktop. I can be shallow and look deep and playable at the same time. Although I might want Dirty wallpaper sometime...thanks for the tip.

Chilly but changeable - bring layers. I'll let someone else answer the neighborhood question.

Mine would have intermittent sharp pains.
What kind of neighborhood is the Moscone Center in?
Two blocks south of Market, around the corner from MOMA. Definitely be careful about walking around alone after dark because it's not far from 6th and Howard, a.k.a. The Wine Country; in groups, it's not really a concern at all.
Give the localistas a day or so and we can make up a good list of decent vegetarian/vegan restaurants within walking distance. There's definitely a ridiculous amount of good Thai and Chinese practically everywhere you turn, and if you go over the overpass from the Moscone Center to the Metreon complex there's a very tasty indoor farmers market on the ground floor, I think 7 days a week.
