Liese, my one lap is 50 yds (pool is 25 yds, so up and back.) So 9 laps is a quarter mile. Some places are fancy and have 50 yd pools. I wish. I have no idea on the strokes, though.
This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Hmm. I`ll have to figure it out. If the families sunbathing were baffled by me going back and forth by myself, they`ll really love me out there with my giant tape measure. It was hard to guage where I was. There`s a good swim out to a floating dock thingy. If I figure out how far that is, I could use it to count.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Mmmmm, panzanella caprese. I should totally make some of that up soon.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Okay, I'm all for good daddies, but I am getting a little tired of the motif of men with babies on tv.
Sorry for the random, I am watching Haven right now.

Hi, all! Wow, I haven't tipsy-posted in a while.
My party was fun, nice and low-key but good. Cute babies for a couple of hours, then they conked out and we had some more drinks.
It wasn't godawful hot out, my friend made us a killer homemade strawberry cake, and I even cleaned up before I came up here!
D is "asleep." He drank whiskey and went to bed, skinny dear.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
Watching a show on the Cooking Channel called "Drink Up" (yes, I know that it's 3AM, I'm not drunk, I'm waiting for cheesecakes to cool because I would rather stay up late and finish them than get up at 7 to make sure that they're in the fridge for 8 hours before I take them somewhere at 4) But, I digress. The "mixologist" was making a drink with something she called "Italian bitters" and I said "hey, that's FERNET"

Fernet!
smonster, talk to me of how to deal with plastic. Not the clearly recyclable bits but the things that package so much in my life. I hate throwing them away but I can't figure out the right way to deal with them. Either here or you can always always email. I just figured that posting here might spread the word if there were tips when me quietly emailing you was lost.

I AM going to get dressed and go to the store. Soon. Then I will strip paint and clean and swim.
I got a splinter full of stripper yesterday (through 2 gloves) and while I got it out, it still hurts.
I really want to go back to bed.
