I was going to take the soup I made to work for lunch tomorrow, but I think the tupperware is also packed.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Actually, Jessica, I will be in New York in mid June and would definitely be down for some real Japanese food. I will be starting my food planning soon.
Re: cross section of people at the marathon representing the three dead... that's one of the reasons I was so terrified when I heard the news. It could be anyone down there watching for whatever reason on a lovely Boston spring day. It could be anyone.

Re: ramen (on my kindle so can't cut and paste) there was this popup here called "Noodles and Pie" which sold various ramen flavors and, you know, pie.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
:: checks Google maps for closest ramen bar::
Huh, closer than I thought. But not close enough to go to for lunch tomorrow. Alas.

In completely different news, this video is gut-wrenching.
Oof. No lie.

Now tagless for your comfort.
A friend of mine's article made it onto the front page of Salon.com today! I feel so excited for him. I can't wait to congratulate in at TRX class tomorrow.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
But I've never had the real ones! So all I know is I like what's called ramen in the little plastic-wrapped packs.
The real ramen noodles aren't all that similar to the instant ones -- no ripply texture :( So its not like you can get traditional ramen and it'll be some epic original version of the tasty celophane pack ones. They're their own wonderfulness altogether. The instant ones are very popular in Japan, however, despite their decidedly not-gourmet nature.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Maria, ballpark guess for packing dates?
Could be any time. It will all depend on when I get a job. I've given myself 6 months from the end of March to be out, worst case scenario.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
So who can give me tips about introducing dogs to indoor cats?
Are you worried about the dog chasing the cats? If the dog is bigger than the cats, set up a baby gate just off the floor enough that the cats can squeeze under and into a room the dog can't get to. (I would put the litter box in this room). They'll be able to see and smell each other and the cats will venture out when they're ready.
I was so tired after work tonight that my dinner was a couple spoonfuls of peanut butter. Now you've got me wanting ramen.

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

And the cats going after the dog.
I was definitely thinking baby gate blocking off the back half of the house.
I know it will work out--I just want to see if it can happen without any bloodshed.
