No worries, Andi - I'm 90% amused as hell, and the other 10% is mostly thinking they'll be more inconvenienced than they seem to be planning for. I'd be surprised at actual harm to the de-luxe apartment in the sky, but I'm still @@

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.
It looks like a lot of people have the same idea: [link]
I wish I could get Good Night Irene out of my head.
Don't you have special nail polish spreadsheets?
I have a spreadsheet of gluten-free recipes that I've bookmarked. I ought to just make those into PDFs, and will at some point, but it's useful to just look at the spreadsheet and know I have a recipe for, say, corn pudding or pumpkin pie (yes, I am already anticipating what I can bring to Thanksgiving to ensure that I get to eat more than dry turkey and olives).
Relatedly, I am going to make cookies right now.
Pfft. Having grown up in South Florida where Hurricane parties were common, I think that's a perfectly sane response.
I remember being caught in a blizzard in Tennessee some (lots) years back and being shocked that the bars were closed.
Sorry about the root canal Teppy.
I'm planning on making a chicken stew type thing tonight. I walked downtown some and I went to the yarn shop where I'd bought some sock weight yarn to make a scarf and showed it to the owner. She was really impressed (she knits but hasn't learned to crochet) and while I was there a couple other knitters stopped by and liked what I'd started. It was a neat feeling.
She's starting a knitting/crochet group in a couple of weeks and I'm going and excited to learn stuff = there are going to be classes at some point - but also to get a social outlet.
I wish I could get Good Night Irene out of my head.
You and me both. It doesn't help that it has this verse:
Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in town
Sometimes I take a great notion
Just to jump in the river and drown.
I wish I could get Good Night Irene out of my head.
Last Saturday night I got married
Me and my wife settled down
Now me and my wife are parted
I'm gonna take another stroll downtown.
Now I want to listen to my Weavers collection on my iPod. Love listening to Ronnie Gilbert singing "House of the Rising Sun."
Wow I just googled "Irene News". Listen to your mayors & your POTUS, peoples! GTFO of there!
I remember picking up a 12 pack of beer the morning after the big Northridge quake back in 94 while others were grabbing water, etc. After such an intense experience, alcohol was a necessity.
