Cricket folks are very enthusiastic.
Yes, yes they are. Perhaps more so than baseball fen.
Aw, StuntHusband. Many hugs to you.
Well, if we followed the recipe...should be cake. A demon-violence-free-zone cake.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
One of our neighbors has a cricket bat. There were people playing cricket in out court. It was a tad surreal , because it was happening when I couldn't really see.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sorry, StuntHusband. Peaceful thoughts headed your way. I hope you are able to have restful renewing sleep later.

Yesterday we picked the granite for the new kitchen counter/bar area (went with a mostly black, matte piece), stone tile for the kitchen floor (gray slate), and a soapstone countertop for the bathroom (gray with hint of blue). So exciting! Almost makes living in a hellhole piled high with boxes (kitchen and bathroom cabinets) and tons of dust worth it. Almost.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Very cool, GC! After months of dithering, this weekend we are finally going to get the tile for our kitchen backsplash. I think we are going with white subway tile and black grout, but that could all change when we see what's on sale.

You're renovating while pregnant, GC?? I mean, I suppose better than renovating while having small baby, but...eep!
How the hell does a gas station in Alabama have a cricket bat?
I suppose the answer of "is from country where cricket is popular" makes more sense, but having just watched "Shaun of the Dead", I too went to a "is prepared for zombies!" place.
I am NOT prepared for anything, myself. I slept for SIXTEEN HOURS yesterday (including a six hour nap from 2-8pm). This is NOT working for me. Oy. WTF body? WTF?

Oh dear, SH. I hope things resolve themselves, and PLEASE be kind to yourself.

I know, we are insane people. However, we really needed it desperately and figured if we didn't do it now, we'd never do it. We are completely remodeling our kitchen, laundry closet, and master bathroom. We did our other bathroom about a year and a half ago and all of the flooring when we first moved in, so this will be it. Our house will be totally done! (Except that we also need new windows. Argh.)
