P-C, those sound a lot like census categories. (Edit: yep, Census 2000: [link])
Ha, that explains it! Thanks.
opening night of [title of show]. Yes, the title of the show IS "title of show".
I may have heard of that. I would probably like it.
Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

I do not have Friday off, but am considering Alice In Wonderland in the evening. I may even work from home on Friday to give myself the illusion of it being a day off.
Saturday I have karate in the am, then I'm taking K-Bug into Denver for her weekend birthday fun. We are seeing Mary Poppins, going out to dinner, going to a comedy club, spending the night at the Shereton, then shopping and brunching on Sunday.

I like the Boots knock-off you can get at Target, but I think the formula of the YSL one is slightly better.
But $30 better?

P-C, those ethnicity & race options are straight from the Office of Management & Budget, which is why they're used in the Census. We use them on our studies too, so, I dunno, it seems standard to me.
We do break some of those categories down into more detail (and allow "other") but I think that for OMB compliance, you have to be able to aggregate your data into those 5 categories.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That I'm still waffling on.

OK, good -- I think we said "develop" most of the time. But not all of the time, because it's too boring. Are the others OK?

I went to Sephora at lunch (giant mall across the street, home to the Apple Store; how I managed to escape without buying a Macbook is beyond me) and got Benefit's Eye Bright. Playing with it, it seems pretty good.
Benefit also has a new powder foundation that, holy crap, I really love and might have to ditch Aromaleigh for.
