Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

So, if you were to name the 5 Best Food Cities (U.S.), what would they be?

New Orleans, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and either Chicago or Seattle.

I ask because this month’s Budget Travel arrived today and on the cover is America’s Best Food Cities: New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and... Boston.

My first thought was one of these things is not like the other.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

FUCK YEAH BOSTON!

Someone is walking down the alley, singing. And he's pretty good. I'm almost tempted to go out and applaud. But I won't.

OK, I've read the episode synopses on wikipedia, but watching Spooks gives me a heart attack even if I know how it ends.

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

I'm almost tempted to go out and applaud. But I won't.

Yell "FUCK YEAH BOSTON!" just to confuse him.

Hee. I'm trying to have hometown pride. Anyway, I'm going to (apparently) one of the best restaurants here on Thursday, so I'm excited about that.

Hee.

Seriously, this show is giving me heartburn and RAGE. Possibly not the best thing to watch tonight. Coup d'etat of a democracy makes me craxy.

It's only Tuesday and this week has been frustrating, but a couple of hours ago I found out that I got a raise.

I need to buy a wedding present, and as part of the registry info, the bride and groom have a site where you can pay for parts of the honeymoon. This means I could Paypal them some money for the honeymoon, and what, just bring a card to the wedding itself? I'd feel weird not bringing anything.
