I am never so grateful for GPS on my phone than when trying to drive to my in-laws house in Pentagon City.
Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Ann, that's a ferret.
That's only true in some parts of Northern Virginia. In others, all roads lead to Braddock Road.

Is it too early for a beer? How about when I tell you I moved every single piece of furniture in my house today? By myself. Before 8:30.
And I'm really not kidding. With the exception of the bed, and I think a bar stool, every single thing is in a different place. Including a massive sofa bed and an L-couch. And about 8 bookshelves. And a storage bench. And and and.
All in preparation for my new baby, [link] and I lurves it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Is it too early for a beer?
It's later here, but I started on the wine quite a while ago.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I believe it is established fact that the stretch of I-40 between Nashville and Knoxville is longer going west than going east.

Heck, I could use a drink now. But I think management might frown upon that before lunch.
If only I worked for Sterling Cooper.

That's the beauty of working from home. Only one more conference call then I'm done for the day anyway, so I think I'ma go for it.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Are these wormholes a corollary to the Northern Va rule that "All roads lead to the Pentagon... or Spout Run"?
I didn't know that was a rule but it's totally happened to me!
All roads in Durham lead to The McDonald's at the Center of the Universe, but that might just be me.

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
Does anyone here drink raw milk? One of the vendors at the farmers' market yesterday mentioned that they do herdshares for people who want raw milk. (And I bought the most amazing fresh sour cream from them, made from milk from their Jersey cows. Oh god. I can never buy mass-produced sour cream again.)
I think raw milk comes down to "trust the farmer". (Which IS how people ate for millenia...) Personally, I'd leap at the chance -- I'd love to try it and anything permitting the de-mechanization of the food supply and making it a little less mass-scale is something I'd like to support.
Tep, how much milk do you an The Boy drink? Whenever I've done farmshares in the past I feel like I'm struggling to eat all of it.
I don't think cow shares make for much in the way of quantity, they're more an end-run around the legality of selling raw milk. They're not selling Tep milk they're selling her a share in a cow. If she buys the cow she gets the milk for free.
