'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yay, Perkins!!
Hil, ugh, I wish you hadn't posted that site. Because I didn't love how full-cut the bottom was on the suit I linked, and I really love this top [link] with this bottom. [link]
Maybe I could get a cute printed pricier top, and a pair of cheaper black bottoms? I'm really only worried about the boobs anyway.
WooHoo!
(I sorta obsessed with my swimming. I apologize for inflicting it on y'all. I always realize I'm getting craxy after the fact.)
Yeah, sarameg, cause NO ONE ever obsesses about their own thangs on here!
I think it's great; I'm in awe of how consistent you are. Get wet with yer bad self!
Um.
Um. Heh.
Thing 1 - K-Bug is at the A's game. I am insanely jealous. I'm watching the game, hoping for a glimpse of her behind the bullpen.
Thing 2 - CJ is applying to be a part of the Arapahoe Rescue Patrol. It is a group of high school kids who are trained in search and rescue. Takes a lot of training and a lot of responsibility. He sees it as a first step toward his desired fire fighting career.
Thing 3 - KCD. I just don't know how I stayed married to him for so long. For a while it looked like all 4 kids were going to go to Vegas for the wedding - CJ driving with B's kids and K-Bug flying out. But he just called and said they are second thinking having any of the kids go. They will just have a big reception after K-Bug moves out here so all the kids can be a part of that. My guess as to why they changed their minds - the minors would cramp their fun. Whatever.
Thing 4 - I get my daughter tomorrow!!!
Suzi, that's a lot of things! Thing 2 sounds especially awesome.
I took Noah out for dinner (it's a Thursday thing. We've been doing it forever). He was such a pill today (not listening, not eating, just playing) that I snorfled my salad and we left posthaste. Actually with such haste that I left my credit card there.
After, he was apologetic and he could at least parrot why I was so angry. But I told him no more restaurants.
The op-ed piece about Kyl was so dead on.
There's also a good piece about sugar as toxin that will be in the magazine this weekend.
Burrell, I subscribed using the educator's link to the NYT. We haven't done the LAT in forever, but I do love the paper. So, we did a Sunday-Only and it's perfect.

Ooh! I know the lead trainer for that. If CJ makes the cut I'll have to tell Matt to pay some extra attention to him.

I read that! Or, was what appeared online a truncated version of that? Anyway, it made me sad, because I love sugar so much I would shank a baby for it. Which, I suppose, indicates I have a wee problem with it.
Unrelatedly (except for how food and drink is broken down in the body), I have had 2 alcoholic ciders tonight, and I am such a damn lightweight, I am tipsy as HELL and have had to correct about 300 typos in this post. Woo.
I still want that Korean taco thing. Possibly because I am tipsy. Also because I love bulgogi.
Pork belly is my new One True Love.
Another part of the pig that's incredibly good? Pork cheek. Yes indeedy.
Pork cheek.
Cow cheek is also very good, and a delicacy at the taco truck.
Flew home today. Plane was completely full, but the flight went well.
I was telling my cabbie on the way home that, given the number of American Taxi cabs that are always parked at my apartment parking lot, I was surprised that I've never been driven home by one of my neighbors. Turns out that he lives at the end of my hall! We ended up spending most of the drive talking about how great the neighbors and management staff are.
As soon as I walked in the door, the cat started meowing at me from under the sink, where she retreated after sniffing my luggage. But then she came out to continue to meow at me for another half hour before she finally jumped on top of me for some petting that lasted much longer than her petting sessions usually last (normally, she's had enough after five minutes or so, but this time, she kept coming back for more).
