I'm curious, Seattle folk: why aren't Bainbridge or Whidbey Islands on your short list of wonderful places to buy a house in the area?
A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

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.

Man. I don't want to do anything tonight but sit on my ass and watch Ace of Cakes. (My diamond shoes, they pinch!)

Every time I go to Target from here or work, I drive by the bakery.
I've never seen the show.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG, I am a networking machine. I think I just told five people I could talk to them on Friday. On the phone! I don't know why we can't just email... I also have another ad to respond to, but I think I've used up my gumption for the night. Maybe tomorrow.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
P-C, reading that articles, I thought "someone needs to make that movie", then I thought "Well, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead kind of already is that movie."

Tep, we've scored a batch of extra delicious white peaches and Emmett's gone on a binge.
We did wind up doing a smoothie to finish them off.
Also, when I make the black beans: saute onions in butter and olive oil, add beans, add cumin, add fresh salsa, add pinch of brown sugar.

Trick with black beans is also to add a dusting of cinnamon. Richens up the flavor, but doesn't taste of cinn. You can add an amazing amount before that happens.
Me, I do black beans after sauteeing garlic and onion and chile, plus chile. Did I mention chile? Green, please. Cumin, fresh only on top. If you do meat, throw in previously cooked and chopped chicken. Don't do the sugar.
Make it more souplike (keep in mind when I do this, I do several large cans at once) I puree a cup or two and remix. Burritos, soup, beans and rice.

Because the commute would be doubleplus insane?
I know people who commute from there, but they're NUTS.
Also, large sections of Bainbridge apparently have no high speed internet.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Kathy, healthma to your brother.
Go pink, sarameg!
They really have made the ordering process feel just like calling a technical support line.
Can't you do it online? I only order pizza online, but I haven't tried Pizza Hut. Just Dominos and Papa John's.
Just heard that the last job that I interviewed for and craved has been shelved--that's what my karma is--the positions I like keep getting shelved. Pisser. Not even anyone to be mad at.
