Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Tonight's swim was ... bracing.

Normally they post the pool temp, but didn't today. I asked the guard what it really was and he said grimly "You really don't want to know." Hah. (This was after my swim.) Figured it will be a bit before the temps get back to their normal operating temp... Nice to be back at my pool.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I think I just witnessed the douchiest display ever to not involve Affliction, Axe or Ed Hardy. Dude (and I mean that in the dudebro sense) with a popped collar polo and a backwards hat just offered the hottest girl in the bar "an opportunity to sit on [his] left knee." I am officially appalled. I knew The Vine was open to all, but really, can't we have *some* standards?

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

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I was too busy throwing up in my mouth a bit. Really, I apparently made a face and my tablemates were all "bad shot?"

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

Boy survived his 45 minutes locked out of the house. Didn't do a dash of homework, of course.

KCD's gf is throwing him a surprise b-day part next weekend. Both CJ and I have been invited. Is a goofy b-day card from me enough? I'll make sure CJ has a prezzie for him. I just am not sure what is too much and what is not enough. I'd consider declining and making sure CJ got there, but I like the gf and know some of the other people who will be there.

That's plenty.

Compassionately intolerant

Cashmere, in my limited Soda Club experience, I would recommend getting a model that has a lever vs. a button. I have the button variety and believe it is not as efficient as the lever.

I've been counting my output and am consistently getting fewer bottles per cylinder than advertised, so I consulted an expert. She blamed the button. Less consistent pressure = more waste.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Jury duty cancelled! I dunno if that means I`ll get called again right away, or if I won`t until my two years is up. But I am off the hook for tomorrow. AND my birthday present from my mom came (tomato success kit from Gardener`s Supply) so it is shaping up to be a pretty good day after all. Now to decide whether to drop in on the vocal recording session or not. I`m doing BGVs on it later, so it might not be a bad idea to go. But
