Allyson, you can get absinthe at BevMo now. It's legal and widely available in California.
Yep. And there are specialty websites that you can order various imported absinthes from and have them mailed to you.
My whole life just flashed before my eyes! I gotta get me a life!

I'm an ambivalent person doing the best I can.
eta: I really HATE my money issues. Rational self looks at them and laughs. The rest of me freaks out. I swear to god, I'm not a granddaughter of the Depression (as I actually am,) not a daughter of the Depression, I'm mentally of the Depression. It makes no sense.

Well, that makes you, at the very least, better than me.
Randomly, we bought an MP3 Player for Noah and one for Grace because they were a fraction of the price listed here. What's cool and freaky is that they come with, I think, a bear-shaped pouch so you can make it look all cute and fuzzy and hang it from a crib. But the round thing in the center lights up when music plays. So essentially, it looks like my kids have an Iron-Man Bear Mp3 Player.
And I loaded some songs on it because the factory songs? NOT the business.
I should go to sleep. I'm a loser.

I agree with Kat.
I am in denial that I have just one week to put the house back together, prepare for Franny's b-day party, redo my office (we moved buildings), and get ready for classes. Add to that that my MiL has her surgery (or whatever they call it, a procedure) on Monday too, so we'll also need to care for her. And that kindergarten starts in two weeks. Yeesh.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I really hope it's wrong but he's been sick. He hasn't been at a track with his race team for the last several races.

It's just weird. I can't really articulate further. I'll do it.

I haven't seen it anywhere, Sumi, but I wouldn't be shocked. Sad, but not shocked.

Dara Torres makes me want to do situps. I'm only two years older than she is!
I hope that Sumi's rumor isn't true.
