I'm going to give my soon-to-be-ex-therapist a knit scarf, on the basis that since we no longer have a therapeutic relationship, it's OK to thank her for all the good she's done me.
I gave her everything... jewels, beautiful dresses -- with beautiful girls in them.

No weekly dinner & tv with local fans.
See, you probably know a bunch of PDX fans.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I may attempt pumpkin lasagne with spinach and goat cheese tonight
Ooh, recipe?
It can't be sweater weather already! But here I am, in a sweater.
Hm. Here I am in three long sleeved shirts and a sweater. And one of the shirts has the extra long arms with a thumb hole.
b) framing services
Who do you need framed? Felony or misdemeanor?

A friend in Oak Park said it was snowing around there this morning.
Gronk. Am so tired, and I need to get moving and head out to a client event at some swank club. I had a big burger for lunch which is just dragging me down.

The water temp is still around 60, so it's keeping the lakeshore warmer than the 'burbs. But my apartment is only about 5 degrees warmer than the lake.

Ooh, recipe?
Um, I didn't work off a recipe because apparently that's how I'm rolling tonight, but this one looked good: [link]
This thing better be edible, god damn it.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Huh. The answer to, "What the heck is making that much noise?" is nine military helicopters. That's a significantly bigger number than I've seen overhead previously.
PDX has a really fabulous airport (with the only Good Dog/Bad Dog as well) but it is hard not seeing your family for a month or two and never without significant planning.

I'd love to move to Portland, but I have neither friends nor family other than my immediate here. I'm pretty fucking isolated as it is, so moving to Portland would be a net increase in weather.
I am running Collusion on Chrome to see who is tracking my data as I move about the internet. Buffistas? No one is watching (at least right now). LA Times? 40 people were watching. Collusion is fascinating.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Question: what has caused the metal hinges on my fairly-new toilet seat to turn corroded and green? I thought bleach, but none of the other fixtures are corroding. Is this fixable, or do I have to buy another new toilet seat?
And one of the shirts has the extra long arms with a thumb hole.
Oh, cool, I want one of those. Where do you get them?
Consuela, one of the reasons I'm still in Virginia is because my sister is here. Friends/family social network trumps almost everything, I think, when there's a choice.
ita, I'm glad your pain doc acknowledged there's a problem, at least.

Leaving all my family in California is still hard. I have made friends here and have a community that I'm involved in, but I wish I could have that AND be close to family without moving back.
I just got home from my latest trip and I walked all over in my new Danskos. Man, they were worth the money - no foot pain at all, no blisters, no other aches and pains. Heeee-hawww. Now to resist buying another pair.
