Re Cocktails: Sam Clemens (Mark Twain) didn't encounter the cocktail until his lecture tour in Europe in the early 20th century. He wrote very excitedly about this great new type of drink called a "Cock Tail". I wonder if he ever learned it had been invented in California?
My god...he's gonna do the whole speech.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
cleared the sink before going to bed. that makes me feel accomplished since most of what was in there was from yesterday, not today. mac's clothes are laid out, I am about to go lay out mine, his snack is half packed, and I have plans to get my lunch done in the morning. Cross fingers for good sleep and no issues on the first day back to school.

More NFL weirdness. Not just the Packers and Cards, but a full three out of four games next weekend are repeats of today's games - Jets/Bengals and Cowboys/Eagles both also played today and will play next week. Though at least for the Jets game I don't think it was already known at kickoff. How freaking random.

15 minutes of inattention, and Loki has eviscerated 1/4 box of fresh kleenex. Sigh.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Happy Birthday, shrift. Those shoes are birthday worthy!
I'm cranky tonight. I think I'll go to bed early.

If they fit when they arrive, they are definitely making a Club Vivid appearance along with whatever dress I buy to go with them.
