Another wierd thing that happened to me today is that the wine store owner (who I know because I buy a lot) started talking to me about how great the Arizona legislation was. But, he said that it shouldn't be a first thing that pulled you over, just a check for everyone who got checked by the police for something else. By the end of our conversation, he was talking about how hard working the immigrants were, and how we should pay a living wage for farm work, and then people already here would do it if it paid well, and that the immigrants are being taken advantage of. And I never disagreed with him, I ust talked about how my Italian immigrant family was able to work for wages, and he had an Italian immigrant family too. It was nice.

Nice job Sophia.
I feel like I have officially found a hair stylist I like. Second hair cut with him and I am once again thrilled with the results. The only down side is the vast collection of OPI polish they also sell. Two came home with me. Can't do that every time I go in for a cut.

I think I just signed up for a CSA.

Stuffed French toast is indeed a thing, a wondrous, nummy thing. But if you're having cheesecake? Waffles. Waffles is what to layer it between. The textures together are wonderful. The cheesecake melts into the little squares, and the air in the waffles keeps them crisp. Nom!
The four ugly arbor vitae in front of our porch came down this afternoon. I can barely contain my excitement. No, really. We still have to hack the roots away from the cable, um, cable, and possibly electric lines, but they were ugly and overgrown, and now they're gone. Once we get the stumps and root systems out, we can build steps to access the front door from the street. What a concept!

See, and this is much more likely(?). Still able to be used in a discriminatory way, yes, and probably would, but seems more likely to stand up to tests, surely. And at least a LITTLE easier to believe is OK...

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
why oops, perkins?
I think she misspelled NOM.

Ah, the Buffistas credo: Back up your positions with verifiable evidence, watch some porn, buy cute shoes, and eat your veggies.

IHOP's "Pancake Stackers" will be a limited-time offering through June 20, and consist of: a layer of cheesecake sandwiched between two pancakes, available in strawberry, blueberry, or cinnamon apple, all topped with whipped cream. They will be available a la carte or as part of a combo meal, with eggs, hash browns, plus bacon, porks sausage links, or ham, which will tally up to 1,250 calories -- over twice that of a 540-calorie KFC Double Down.
And IHOP is not going to knock off a buck or two when I get it with no meat. Oppressors.

Also: the Double Down is basically chicken cordon blue anyway!!
Don't get me started.
When I was an omnivore I'd have been ALL OVER that thing.
It's no mystery how I got so heavy, historically I had an iron stomach. I didn't always or even often indulge it, but boy could I. Alas, it went away when I hit my mid-thirties. Between that, and the facts that my eyelashes no longer hit my lenses and I need to hit the head within three minutes of waking up... ageing is not for sissies.

I love the apologetic pothole commercial.
I almost used that copy for my VO reel! (they were recording at the same time that I was and gave the OK). It cracks me up to hear it on TV.
I don't think it's on my reel. We recorded about a dozen things and used six or seven.

Skipping (oh, when will I stop opening posts with this word?) because, according to billytea "If the Apocalypse Comes, Beep Me" Apr 29, 2009 11:40:24 am PDT today is Ryan's birthday.
Happy birthday, you almost-a-toddler! With lots of wishes for your parents and all your family, as well!
[Edit: OK, I is dum. Today is the 30th. Not the 29th. Next thing I know, I'd discover that the year doesn't start with 19--.
So sorry, not-so-wee-anymore Ryan! So sorry, billytea!]
