A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
If you have iPads to hand out to the interviewers, I will sneak into the meeting and pretend to be a consultant.
I'm fairly confident I can pull it off long enough to get an iPad and run. I'll pretend I'm French or Russian or something. I'll just scowl intimidatingly and brandish a hard copy of your resume.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm drinking tea right now, BTW.
AIFG.
Actually, it's weird. It does taste different. I brewed it for the length of time and strength that Teavana recommends (2min, 2 tsp at 175 for two cups) and it tastes much lighter than I get when I brew it by hand, but also sweeter. I think I'll brew for 3 minutes at this same temperature tomorrow morning, which is the teamaker's recommended steeping time.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Is it possible on an iphone to butt dial or text someone without it showing up in your messages or "recents" list?
I just got a text from a Santa Clara number telling me not to call or contact that number because they would contact the authorities.
I immediately thought "oh no, butt or purse dial", but I can't see any sign that I actually did that.

Lee, maybe they texted you by mistake. (IOW, they didn't text you by hitting "Reply," but actually typed in the number, and maybe they got the number wrong.)

Nazi UFO conspiracy theories are my FAVORITE. You can basically make up anything and it sounds kinda reasonable because, hey, everyone knows how fucked up and secretive the Nazis were!

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

I don't think so, but that reminds me that last weekend Ryan got hold of his mummy's phone and speed-dialled the woman who runs his childcare centre. He's quite proud of himself.

I'm fond of the Nazi moonbase theory, myself.
ION, I'm always amazed at how fast the snow melts. This morning the snow was solid on the mountain that faces our building. Now all the sun-facing portions are free of snow.

That's what I figure.
Though now of course I am tempted to call then from the work line, just to see what happens.

On a totally non-Nazi related note, I have a question for Buffistas who are good with money.
We desperately need to get rid of our credit card debt so that we can have a chance in hell of getting another mortgage when we move in a couple of years. Is it a terrible idea for our credit score to sign up for a card with a 0% rate on balance transfers and use it ONLY to pay off our current balance? Would we be better off taking out a line of credit with our bank and paying it off that way?
