If the weather stays cool, I may tackle them tomorrow night. Finally, a reason to wear my old motorcycle jacket again!
We're in love. We're ... lovers. We're lesbian, gay-type lovers.

there are a couple of trees in the neighborhood that bear what looks like blackberries. is that possible? from a tree, not a bush.
Mulberries? We had a ton on the elem. schoolyard and they were the scrouge of teachers (kids+berries=mess) and line-driers everywhere (grackled ate them, pooped purple poop on clean laundry and stained it.)
We were always told they weren't edible. I recall they were sour, so presumably they weren't fatal. Just icky.

Fast Company magazine has named Chicago "US City of the Year," with a great article written by Alex Kotlowitz (author of "There Are No Children Here" and "Never a City So Real").

Drat. That means they're probably going to end up in my neighborhood bar at some point.

When I was in Alaska staying on a lake in a remote cabin that we had to take a float plane to get to, my former best friend decided to try to eat the identified not-quite-blueberries. So of course lori joined her. Um. Hello? If either of them were destined to be poisoned they would have been screwed. But luckily the berries were edible.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I can't believe they aren't going to be in Williamsburg! But maybe it's full.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I can't believe they aren't going to be in Williamsburg!
Me neither!

They keep talking about doing it in Washington, but it keeps falling through, thank god.

Oh, crap. Ted Kennedy's doctors just announced he has a malignant brain tumor.
Even a "benign" brain tumor isn't always cause to rejoice, because sometimes its location makes it impossible to remove without causing significant damage. Which makes the moniker "benign" somewhat of a bad joke.
Still, what a goddamn pisser for Ted Kennedy.
Who but Buffistas could crack a friggin' Proust joke off the cuff like that?
I love us.
