It would be nice, sure. Just like I would, on one level, like to totally decrease my footprint by being completely vegetarian. On a philosophical level that excites me more than on a gastronomic one. But I can make changes in my habits to limit meaty meals, and turn up the thermostat.

smonster, wonder if there's ever been case of someone soliciting to pay for organic fruit and veges.(I only get them sometimes, myself. What with eating every day and so forth. They are totally better...better enough to be worth it? I'm not sure, in some ways, because you have to use them faster.)ETA: Anthony Bourdain wrote an essay about that in one of his books in reference to Alice Waters...that in some ways, his heart thinks she is totally right, but his brain thinks she's smoking monkey crack(shockingly, he didn't actually use this phrase.)

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
bonny, ugh. I don't know what to tell you.
erika, you made me literally laugh out loud, and I needed that. And whether they're better for me, I fully believe they're better for the farmworkers and the planet.
Forgot to take my birth control and my antidepressant this morning, no wonder I'm hell on wheels.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
New computer setup - in front of living room couch so I can lean back on couch and type, with monitor and keyboard at proper height. Keyboard, mouse and network connection all wireless. Now to find out if I can make extended use of computer without pain.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Meetup has suggested I join a group called Creative Soapmaking and Cocktails. Honestly. The soap would totally ruin the cocktail. And vice versa, I'm sure.

I hope so, Typo Boy.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I'm still ridiculously stressed about the job situation. I'm kicking myself for not getting an IT or engineering degree. (As if people in those fields don't lose their jobs...I *get* that I'm being irrational.)
Tim is fantastic, though, and told me that if we need to get courthouse-married before our planned wedding date so that he can put me on his health insurance, we can totally do that. (Pretty sure we don't have enough employees for COBRA to apply to us.)
So I realize I'm ridiculously lucky in a lot of ways, but I'm still a giant seething ball of stress and knife-y stomach pain right now.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Sorry you are so stressed out right now, Teppy.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
So very glad I live alone. Just fielded a call from a young gal whose roomate had stolen her panties. And she's pretty sure he's a registered sex offender but didn't tell her before she moved in...
