God, he is beautiful. Otherworldly almost.

I ate a healthy breakfast and lunch. I feel that my reward should be a cupcake.

I hope the currently majority Democratic Senate will stave off the Republicans' efforts to repeal the legalization of same-sex marriage!

Republicans in general are pissing me off right now!

Vernor's is not ginger ale

It's what it says on the can! Hee. When I was growing up, it was the bitiest damn ginger ale out there. Made my nose burn and sting. They've toned it down since then, unfortunately. But it's still got more of a kick than something like Canada Dry.

shrift, I bought one of those, too--we should definitely have a meet-up there.

I think the fine print says we can only use one per table, BUT that just means we'll have to meet up more than once! I'm okay with that. Moar Indian food, moar Buffistas!

BTW, this was the first one I'd bought. Do I have to print out anything, or will they email me the info?

They'll email you the info the next business day after the charge goes through. You'll probably have to print out the voucher to take to the restaurant

I am anti-fizzy everything. Champagne and Proseco get passes in moderation, but I'm not a carbonated person. On the other hand, I am tea obsessed.

The snow is still falling and accumulating. I checked the school district page and while there isn't any mention of closure yet, one school shut down early due to a busted water main. There is only a half hour left of school, so he will be trudging home soon.

My favorite ginger ale is the homemade stuff they have at Big Bowl (one of the Lettuce Entertain You restaurants). I think it's real ginger infused into fizzy water with some sugar added--whatever it is, it's delish!

Danny Elfman/Tim Burton box set.

Okay, I really read that wrong. I saw "Danny Elfman/Tim Burton bot sex."

Chicagoistas, I totes just bought today's LivingSocial deal for Viceroy of India, so we should go eat there sometime soon.

Oooh, that sounds good.

I don't like my water fizzy. The only carbonation I get any more is the occasional beer.

Ooh.

I think the furnace just kicked on. Yay kettles of boiling water to the rescue!

Cars are still a nogo, though. One battery is completely dead. The other turns over, but doesn't start. I did try to jump the one, but I think it's too far gone.

Or maybe not.

I am totally reduced to cargo cult status at this point. I am just waving my arms at things hoping that if I wave them right things will work. The reality is, things will probably work after tomorrow when the temperature rises above freezing. But other than that, it's just superstition.
