You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

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

aurelia, pot de creme is a custard that is made in-pot - kind of like a creme brulee, but without the fire element.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

This is day 13 for me. I wasn't getting any rest that first week though.

Thanks, Juliana.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I can't believe these people I used to work with got an article in the Times. [link] Beth must know someone who works there, because I'm sorry, that's not a story.

This is my experience with NYT "lifestyle" trend type stories. They are incredibly lame and always read like "hey, I have a friend who does (x) therefore (x) is an exciting story for people my age, who are me."

(EDIT: See also: the "trend" of ladies eating red meat on dates! SHOCKING. But will make the menfolk respect you more!)

I do not have the utmost respect for the Paper of Record, I am afraid. (not that the Globe is any better.)

The Style section is almost entirely ridiculous and/or maddening.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I was going to try that last time I was there, Juliana, but then someone got me a free cheese plate appetizer, and it was so good I ate all of it.

Also, I went to breakfast right near Target and then had extra time so I went to Target to buy gum and somehow walked out with gum and a liberty dress.

At least I remembered the gum.

Poor Suzi. Do you have arnica gel? That often helps.

I do not. I don't even know what it is. Will research. We didn't even spar yesterday, so I can't try and blame karate.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I really need to get to Juliana's restaurant at some point. Pity I don't work in the city anymore. And that there aren't any Buffistas working in downtown Oakland, since I have loser coworkers who don't like to go out for drinks after word.

I tried to get a job at Pandora, but nooooo... (They probably have heard me bitch about their algorithm too many times.)

Perkins, it was goat cheese with truffles in it. How could I not share that with you?

Suzi, Whole Foods or some other store like that will have arnica.
