Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hey--I'm looking for not just a travel mug, but a travel tea infuser. Last time I travelled, I had a baggie of tea (innocent, officer) and my tea strainer. But it would be more practical if the infuser were part and parcel of the drinking vessel, like this [link] . Since those are Teavana, though--they're not the cheapest, although they are likely good quality. I'm looking for deep baskets, and good insulation. Any tips?

Now tagless for your comfort.

Oh, that site has one I really like--the infuser basket on your link was smaller than I usually use, but the one with the big basket seems less insulated (difference between "hours" and "a good 2". 2 would be fine usually, but not as much when travelling. Why, tradeoff, why? Google shopper--don't fail me now...

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have a Tea-zer. Nice big basket, has kept tea hot all day for me in the past

I've been occasionally checking updates at the NYU website to see what my niece's situation might be. It looks like there are places on campus with electricity so she should be able to charge her phone and call home. (Which I hope she is doing.)
Also - is Andrew Lloyd-Weber a lord? Because is so he has a filly running in the Breeder's Cup Filly & Mare Turf tomorrow. (Her name is The Fugue.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Ginger, Yahoo is telling me today is your birthday. Happy Birthday!

Hmm. The basket is nice and big, but it isn't mesh, and...good lord, I'm becoming a crazy tea lady. I think that ranks below cat lady, huh?
Hmm. I'm not finding travel infusers (or travel mugs of any sort on Upton--what must I be doing wrong?) Plenty of infuses, some mugs+ infusers, but nothing where the infuser screws into a lidded insulated travel mug. Hmm.
I wonder...Lupicia? Nah, nothing there.
Bed Bath and Beyond had a couple Bodum items: [link] and [link] but they're both press, and I'd rather remove the leaves that drink over them--I don't add milk and sugar much, but I especially don't want milk (however dilute) sticking around until my next steep. And I can't see how big the filter is on this [link] .

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Depends on how many cats.
Man, I didn't sleep well last night, and work people keep sending me emails that deserve "bitch, please" responses. That is maybe not a very good combination.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
In addition to being annoyed with looking for gifts none of these people need, I just had to do the annoying copy all the medical receipts for the ex-pat task. They get all their co-pays and out-of-pocket medical expenses reimbursed by their home countries, but somehow that is a business task for me to do instead of a personal one they take care of at home, like the rest of us do to file claims.
