Aw, thanks so much guys! And I love Barbthday-- that's pretty awesome.
It's been a lovely, relaxing day, with part of it spent finishing up some school shopping for Abby, but then had a great dinner (with a massive piece of pie for dessert...) and then shopping for me, whereupon Mom bought me a gorgeous pair of Frye boots.
And I got a six month membership to a yoga studio, so I can go back to regular classes and hopefully, get my ass and other body parts into my wardrobe and quit feeling quite so slothful.
All in all, a Good Day, made better by all the lovely birthday wishes.
Happy birthday Barb, glad to hear it was a good one.
Happy Birth Evening, Barb!
They randomly send me email.
Apparently flights of tequila can lead to me giving my email address out.
I'm an hour late, but Happy Birthday, Barb!
Oh, smonster. You so deserve this vacation.
Ghosts and demons. General symbol of purity.
So confused. Actually, not really confused. Just knows I'll be trying very hard in the future not to laugh my ass off while studying over and over how spices were considered as symbol of richness, while picturing men in togas passing the/paying in salt all around.
As for the alarmed doors - I swear I caught it myself from some TV show/internet speak. Can't remember where. I knew it was slang, but I didn't know it was wrong.
I woke up late today. Will need to make up for it in much studying over the weekend.
Should i be slightly wierded out if i'm planning to meet someone from match.com and he suggests meeting at a Cold Stone Creamery? (" I am guessing you haven't been to one. Good little summer stop. You can choose their creations or make your own. Also have smoothies if you'd rather go that route. Just looking at their offerings makes me want some of that frozen goodness right now.")
I mean seriously, we live in Portland, a veritable haven for coffee lovers and foodies and his suggestion is a national ice cream chain? (I might be slightly more squicked that expected due to my lactose intolerance). Would it be rude to counter-suggest with a place i might actually enjoy? He seemed really awesome until that suggestion. *frown*
