I still call them the Seattle Sadbirds, as Stephen Colbert taught me.

Asking for a cocktail with rum and ginger beer got me a "black and stormy" in a Moscow mule mug. It'll do.

Isn't that what a rum and ginger beer is called? Or is that dark and stormy?
I guess so? I'm not good with cocktails. That's why I ordered by ingredients.
I want to root for the Ravens because Poe, colors! but the Ray Lewis and wife puncher kinda sour it all. Orioles at least are moderately more nice.
But mostly, I don't care. Except as it affects traffic.

I wish I had seen the vajankle before my dinner party.
Also, my guests had no idea that cats had belly buttons. I was like, how can you not know about cat belly buttons? They're the best!
That is exactly how I feel about the Ravens. Eventually they will have different personnel and will move up my hierarchy of teams to root for.
I "root" for the Steelers from old Steel Curtain days nostalgia. I have no idea who is on the team. For all I know, it's still Franco Harris, Terry Bradshaw, Jack Lambert, and Mean Joe Greene. (Yes, I know they've all moved on) And I never liked Jack Lambert because my college freshman roommate bragged all the time about sleeping with him once.
Catching up!
I got Will (husband-shaped person) a Melitta cone at the beginning of the month and it is working out great. I actually got a set of 2 so we could each have a cup, or he and his mom could each have a cup, without having to store a big drip maker or go through a whole French press pot. He doesn't really like the French press coffee anyway. The Melitta is perfect.
Jilli, get the electric kettle, or request it as a gift. Such a worthwhile purchase.
I only seem to like herbal teas, fruity teas, or spicy teas - peppermint, ginger, chai, orange spice, pomegranate. I'm never very happy with a black or green tea. I did get some loose leaf chocolate mint for Christmas. Now I just need to get an infuser.
I can't burn it.My father-in-law put a brand new electric kettle on... On the stove. And thusly ruined it.
