ya, I've seen Pho in Dallas. I saw it in SoCal (Little Siagon was between home and work in Westminister, CA). I just never ate it before. I'm hesitant to try new things on my own, but easily persuaded by folks I trust.
Buffy: How was school today? Dawn: The usual. A big square building filled with boredom and despair.
Buffy: Just how I remember it.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Houston has a substantial Vietnamese population, including an area of downtown where the street signs also have alternate Vietnamese names. And excellent Vietnamese food.

I had the chicken pho, and, as someone who doesn't care for soup. I will agree with beth_b on this one.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It's certainly not her friend.

There's a pho noodle place right next door to the Uzbek restaurant I like to go to. I keep meaning to stop by and try it out, but I get sucked in by the garlic chicken and spicy carrots at Chaihanna instead.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
BTW, I was so frazzled, I think I forgot to post this yesterday. My ex-husband was in town for a few hours and called me. We were divorced about 20 years ago and I don't think I'd seen him for about 16. Our marriage ended with him cheating on me, being a general tool and my heart being thoroughly broken, so I was a little hesitant to get together, but he came over after work and we actually had a nice conversation.
He's always been a fascinating person, just a really damaged one. It seems like he's been really working on himself and has had two kids which has opened his heart a lot. It was good to see him more at home in the emotional world. It was also good that he told me I looked amazing, because I am TOTALLY shallow like that.
He's in wikipedia, oddly enough: [link]
