We didn't have sex, if that's what you mean. That's all I do now, not have sex.

He was actually very supportive of both. He made a point to remind me not to purchase moving boxes. Which I don't want to do, but if needed, I will.

This snow, it's so cold, is the consistency of sand. But lighter. Which makes shoveling a completely frustrating endeavor. Brooms work and then the wind...

I love going to Cubs/Brewers games for this reason

That's a good example because almost nothing is of less consequence than a Cubs/Brewers game.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I haven't given any of my money to Exxon since '89, because I still hold a grudge about the way they handled the Valdez spill.

Sometimes not buying boxes is a false economy. If you're packing something like books, identical boxes really speed up the process.

Ginger, I'm also expecting to move again, so they wouldn't be a single use purchase.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

For books, I recommend going to a liquor store and using wine/booze bottles. They are sturdy and thick, and they are a small enough size so that they are not too heavy when they are filled with books

I think Vortex means the boxes the bottles came in. And I second the idea.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Last night, they announced 11am open at my office. But somehow I feel my boss will be there at like 9:30, so I should get a moveon. I am taking a leisurely morning routine, and then I have to clear the steps (probably just sweeping).

It was so beautiful last night, with the snow all glittery.

not your mom's socks.

3 degrees here. Snow day#2 after a long weekend. Have forgotten what day it is and any motor skills except those required for the rainbow loom.

I interviewed my editor yesterday for a web column, and she linked tv tropes once for an anime citation. I didn't say anything then, but now I want to go point that link somewhere else.
