Oh, yay, Daisy Jane! I am so glad you are home safe and sound and I am so excited to hear your travel stories! Yay for the kindness of strangers.
Hey, man, where are my pants? I have my hippo dignity!

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I just made a recipe from a new cookbook I just got for Chanukah. (Appetite for Reduction, if anyone's curious.) It's upside-down shepherd's pie -- a scoop of mashed potatoes topped by a scoop of filling. The potatoes are actually a mix of potatoes and cauliflower, and the filling is made with lentils, mushrooms, and veggies. I made some chard with balsamic vinegar to have with it, and it's all yum.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
I am at Hansel & Gretel opera. It's in English. No clue what they are saying. Vibratto is set to max with these student opera singers. Thankfully the orch sounds nice.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I also discovered I don't really like to eat a lot of meat and that I'm not often as hungry as I think I am. Also paneer is the stuff of gods and I could eat it forever. Oh, and cauliflower in soup is the yumz.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Welcome home, DJ. I'm so sorry to hear about your friend, but the trip sounds amazing.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Yay for Rakesh and his family (also the others who interceded for you)! So nice!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Your trip sounds amazing, DJ. Thank you so much for sharing the memories with us as well.
I may need to add "bublic cervice" to my personal lexicon.
Me too, smonster, me too.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
smonster, let me know when/if you want early-morning wake-up calls to start again.

That sounds yum, Hil. I wanted latkes but don't have any potatoes so I've shredded up a butternut squash with an apple, an onion and a small celery root. I think they'll be tasty.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Andi is probably at work thinking about leaving me fr warmer climes.
15 minutes warm-up time, and I still couldn't see through the frost on the windshield. Oh, well, don't really need to see to drive at that hour of the day. And it wouldn't be leaving you, if you would just come with me.
Mrs. Rakesh is a very lucky woman. She gets to marry into an awesome family with a very kind husband (who, it must be said, was very easy on the eyes).
May their marriage be blessed with the best blessings, and may their children be healthy, and as plentiful as they wish.
