Happy Pacific New Year!
I met Iman once. It was like chatting with a masterpiece. Her beauty was staggering.
I was at a wedding with Geena Davis once. She was just luminous. Stunning.
Costplus I (so far) have kept for myself--a maple syrup grade sampler pack--small bottles of Vermont Fancy, grade A medium amber, grade A dark amber, and Grade B.
After tasting it at Plei's, I have become a total convert to the Grade B. Holy god so good.
I do this too (at least the “your dad” part), but don’t get when spouses call each other Mother and Father when their kids are grown and out of the house.
Oy. My aunt and uncle do this (only worse, since they call each other mommy and daddy). Not enough skeeve in the world.
Totally different if you're using those terms in reference to one or the other parent, like "your mom said no cookies" or "go tell dad the phone's for him." But to each other, even when kids aren't around? Ugh.
Wait, did someone say something about Nathan Fillion covered in syrup?
Wait, what now?
My father's parents often addressed each other as "Mother" and "Father". It always sounded like an endearment to me.
In my world watermelon is not edible, so I think ALL watermelons should be made into such beautiful sculptures.
While I enjoy watermelon as a food, many of my elderly relatives agree with you. Their reason in Yinglish is:
"Der Spitten Spitten, Der eaten eaten." meaning "when I spit I spit, when I eat I eat." When I was a smart ass eleven year old, I'd always ask them whether they skipped cherries too. Cause if they did I was willing to take their share.
Skipping (is it for the last time on 2009, or the first time on 2010?), because according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Susan W's birthday.
Happy birthday, Susan! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
And you know, I have yet to do any seeping this decade. I think I'll try that out; see if anything's changed.
My alarm this morning went off with "Let's Go Crazy" by Prince. I decided to let it play through and danced around the room to it. Seemed like a decent way to start off the new year.
Happy new year! These days I have to do my greetings in the morning since I never make it
to midnight.
Happy New Year, 'ffistas!
Guy was talking all about politics, realty, economics, etc. with an air that he knew much more than he really did. One sentence that stood out: "I asked someone on the internet who told me...."
See, I'm tempted to judge, but I do get pretty much all of my information from you guys here. (Heck, maybe he's a lurker! Hey bus guy, are you reading this?)
Just saw on Twitter that two of my friends were in a car accident last night. Tweet said they were waiting for a tow truck and not an ambulance, so that's a relief, but what a start to the new year!!
One year when I was in college Conan did a "Central Time Zone New Years Special" with the tagline "Nobody's watching!" IIRC it was basically a collection of all the most offensive and/or controversial sketches. And freaking hilarious.
I dreamt I was dating Bill Nighy last night. It was quite lovely. Then I started seeing someine else too, and it got awkward.
I also managed to say White Rabbits when I woke.
