Huh.
So, Seattle, pho comes often with cream puffs because we have SO MUCH DAMN PHO? and they have to resort to gifts-with-purchase?
Meara, which one did you go to? I love the one on the Ave.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
We have a pretty substantial Vietnamese population here. There's a whole section of downtown with alternate Vietnamese names on the street signs.

This one, I believe. Conveniently the closest to me. But I'm curious about the other places along Broadway

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I am intrigued by the concept of cream puff with pho, though knowing how full I am after pho I doubt I could actually eat and enjoy a cream puff at that point.

Now tagless for your comfort.
My friends took me to a Pho restaurant in Cleveland. It was TASTY GOOD.
Sadly, we had no cream puffs. But we stopped in at Whole Foods for lavender chocolates afterward.
WF is something I really miss having access to. And TJ's.

Gah. Grueling week. Not over.
Project 1: My coworker spent the last 20 minutes of today ripping apart the thing thing I'd spent all of the past two days working on. And now I think I forgot to bring that thing home with me to do what's needed this weekend. Getting this project ready to submit on Monday is going to be a
Project 1 B: Client asked for pt. 2 to follow three days after pt. 1 - usually we have a couple of weeks. Have to have it done early because of crazy meetings next week. Forgot about it altogether until about an hour ago.
Project 2: Short timeline. Extra short timeline because, while on a conference call at like 10 pm, I promised some material to people earlier than I meant to - fucked up the time zones. They're in Singapore, so saying I'll have it to them Monday really means Sunday.
Project 3: I'm sure there's a project three. I just can't think what it is right now.
Project 4: Profit! Drink.
