Anne, I'm so sorry for your loss.

All the summers I spent in Maine has left me thinking that lobster isn't a special occasion food, and there are a lot of things I'd rather have. However, there is a place in Wiscasset that had the best lobster rolls, and I am looking forward to one of those in July.

Shrimp, on the other hand, I have very strong feelings about. They're bottom feeding garbage, and I don't understand why anyone would pay to eat them. See? Strong.

DH is gone to Geneva, and for various reasons I could not go on this trip. In September, he's going to Zambia, and I need to make some time to figure out if a safari is possible for us then. ETA: Who knew you could fly to Lusaka for $800!?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

They're bottom feeding garbage

Lobsters, on the other hand, feed on only the finest shit that falls to the bottom of the ocean.

I love all shellfish, as long as I don't have to see their heads which remind me how much they look like giant bugs. (I can't eat shrimp since I noticed it made my mouth itch about a year ago, but everything else, gimme more.)

I love Gulf shrimp (and eat a lot of 'em). Also crawfish which definitely look like bugs. Miss eating lobster.

Mmm, crustaceans. Yum. I'd be okay with eating locusts, too, ftr. But my meals today are shaping up to be all salmon and vegetables.

So, black skirt with white polka dots, white shirt with black trim, black blazer - ok for 2nd interview at the the place I've been temping for almost 3 months (so no worries about making a first impression)?

Because books.

That sounds perfect, -t. Good luck!

I will have all the seafood/shellfish, please. I'd be happy never eating anything else.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That sounds super cute!

Ann, that's a ferret.

All sympathies, Anne. RIP, Jeeves.

Thanks! Now I feel better about the day (my breakfast apricot wasn't ripe, I'm out of butter, and I didn't get radishes in my CSA box though they were on the packing slip - things were looking a little down).
