Just made shortcakes and topped them with strawberries mixed with sugar and nutmeg. Yum.
Oooh, that sounds good.
I got stabbed, you know, right here.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I had a very rich brunch with family and now I want to sleep, but I really should do yardwork, laundry, and make a Good Will run. Time to get rid of the bread machine that has been sitting on my kitchen table for six weeks.

We just got back from visiting some fostered greyhounds. The kids and I want to get another one, but the DH is being a PITA. I need the kids to gang up on him, and then maybe remind him that he bought 2 (not one but two!) motorcycles in the last 7 years against my wishes. We shall see

Art Crawl!!!
I am also appalled at ita's hospital. Completely ridiculous.
My cousin's wife (SE PA) posted that their electricity was out for a few hours until her husband went down to the basement and threw the circuit breaker - and voila! Electricity.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Jessica, it's still down tomorrow even though the hurrican will be over? Wow.
The MTA won't give an eta - they can't even START cleanup on the subways until the storm is completely over, and there are a lot of downed trees and flooded stations. If the express buses are running tomorrow morning, I can go that way instead, but right now there's only very limited local bus service.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Holy crap, Jess! Up here they are saying the MBTA should be mostly normal in the morning.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
A&E is having a Criminal Minds marathon, and it occurs to me that as much as I love most of the eps they are showing (I can't not watch Minimal Loss), I can't watch the James Van der Beek episodes. Too much Reid woobie.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The Saints preseason game is actually on here. The Saints just scored a touchdown, and the Oakland crowd booed. Do I usually just block it out when the home crowd boos the opposing side? I seriously didn't remember that happening that much before.

Oh, it sounds like Ingram might have done something to provoke the crowd.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
The game is blacked out here. I didn't think they did that for the preseason. I blame Al Davis. As usual.
