Somewhat topical, Kate Middleton wore black to a wedding this weekend, which has many royal watchers clutching at their pearls.

I don't know how wedding-appropriate it is--it really depends on the wedding. But I love her coat and the shoes.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Good news! I made tacos for dinner and have consumed fresh tomatoes and lettuce!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

If we measure in time (and as a woman, I find that time is more important than mere dimensions of length), I think my ice scraper might have been longer.

Oh, snap! Though my ice scraper spent longer on... um... foreplay?

Well, bugger. My ice scraper:

a) needs a new metaphor
b) is atrophying from neglect
c) brings all the boys to the yard

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My ice scraper had little to no foreplay and ended up in the bedroom of a person I'd never seen before.

Oh, wait.

I'm not all that good at this stuff.

Okay, I'm sniffling and my eyes keep tearing up. My boss has a terrible cold. I know who I'm mad at.

Apparently your ice scraper is my brother.

Hee. As opposed to my reputation as the Smoove B of the ice scraping world (there will be snow shovelling also).

I miss snow days. I probably don't miss snow though. It's a dilemma.

I did the math. In one class, 65% of my students are earning and F. That's bad.

ita, unless you live in WeHo or Venice, everyone only lives near one of those pizza places. Though I will say Casa Bianca is completely of the yum. I'll take you after we have successful Indian.

Snow days, hmph. I've driven to work with 4 inches of snow on the ground. Well, what the wind wasn't blowing off, anyway. Watching transplanted Californians panic is amusing--unless they're on the highway panicking.

Trust my rage

Thanks again, flea and Calli. And thank you all for the kind words. Also, I feel the need to point out that I don't work for free. I get embarrassed some times at all the kinds words.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Snow days where you know well in advance are the best snow days.
 
Well, I came home from work and slept and I feel about a billion times better. Getting ready to have a salad all from my sunroom. Hopefully I will have a normal night tonight and be back on the right track for tomorrow and for NAMM!
 
So! I am going to be in Anaheim for this music retailers` convention this Friday through Sun. I anticipate much drooling over gear and possible bassist fangirling (Vic Wooten!) and have no real idea what my sched is going to look like. Planning on getting together with Kat & the fam for something or other on Sunday night. Probably going to get lori to take me Japanese grocery shopping. But I figure in all that, I`ll have to eat! So if LAistas would like to grab a bite at some point, I would love it. Will be somewhat limited in transportation. I know it`s a short time and short notice, so if it doesn`t work out that`s fine too, but I`m throwing it out there.
