The status is NOT quo.

LAistas... any recs on housecleaners?

We use Home Sweet Home, and they've been great. I'm pretty sure that they are a franchise organization, though, so I'm not sure if the one local to you would be as awesome as our has been.

Any meat I'd want cooked on a grill I put in the broiler drawer. You just have to monitor carefully. Flames. Choose flames. It was good enough for your protohuman ancestors, it's good enough for you.

Good job, Suzi! Go CJ!

Next year Emmett moves up to adult Krav classes and gets tested regularly. The teachers really like him so I expect him to get bruised a lot.

Mmmmm, I've been trying to finesse the abundance of Meyer lemons (courtesy of javachik) with vodka tonics and have found that a mix of half Meyer plus half lime juice is ideal (for me anyway).

ION, a week and a half into the season and both the A's and Giants are in first place. Both teams have stellar pitching, but the Giants is More Stellar, and both teams have suck hitting but the A's hitting sucks more. In short, the Giants first place is more sustainable as the A's whomp on truly pathetic teams like the M's and O's. (Alphabits!)

Our wings are not tired.

Gigantes are getting whomped right now, though.

I shoulda told Matt and Beth to come in and relax and have some wine when they came over to get the cat crate. Then I wouldn't be suffering through this game. :(

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Suzi, I used to train glittered for similar reasons.

This makes me unbelievably happy. Thanks for sharing that, ita.

I really should go to bed, but that would involve moving. Don't wanna.

Yeah, but Wellemeyer's pitching. If they win a third of his games they'll win the division.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

We'll have Grace so we'll be home after noon for nap time for sure.

I may have hermitted by then. I'll have to see how the pain goes.

Thanks for sharing that, ita.

My pleasure. I also used to share with my male wrestling partners, apparently to the displeasure of wives and girlfriends, which? Really? Is it that much worse rolling around on the floor with a strange woman if she sparkles>

I remain completely annoyed and mystified as to why Bochy didn't pitch Cain against the Dodgers. The Gigantes made a run of it though--made it a 10-8 game in the end.

Now I am watching the Sharks.

Me too. I've watched like 5 hours of hockey in a row. Do. Not. Like.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

But whenever I was having a rough time and having to go to my "zen place", it usually included reminding myself of how something as simple as nail polish makes me happy. Not sure if I'm explaining that right.

Sounds right to me.

Yay testing, Suzi!

Is there Jello involved?
