I feel like that's a much less fun group to walk by on the street...

Hey, what? UFC is totally cromulent.

Man, I just argued myself out of an opinion. Crichton is an Everyman hero, not a Chosen Saviour, despite the insertion of wormhole tech into his head. I was so sure when I started. I hate that.

Hey, what? UFC is totally cromulent.

I just feel like they are less likely to have funny and/or interesting outfits and/or devices.

Timelies all!

Healthy vibes to all who need them.

Cats have been taken to the vet and checked out. Everything seems fine.(I am amused that scaredy-cat Luna gained more weight this year than her gluttonous sister)

Scrappy those shoes are awesome!

I've got roller derby try outs today at noon. After standing around in heels for six hours last night, I hope I do well.

I have shoes almost exactly like that, and I love them, Scrappy.

My coffee maker is being too slow.

I've been known to stand in front of one and yell, "HURRY!"

I went to the farmers market, but it wasn't terribly interesting. In DC, I usually made a rule for myself that, each week, I'd buy at least one thing at the farmers market that I'd never tried before. Sometimes it was just variations on things, like Turkish eggplant or golden beets, but there was always something new to try. The market here just has tomatoes, potatoes, peaches, apples, and corn, mostly. A few peppers. Actually, now that I think about it, there were nectarines, and I don't think I've ever had those before. Also, one booth was run by an Amish woman and little girl, and the little girl kept sneezing all over all the produce.

If I'm still here next year, I think I'll join a CSA.

Oh, Pix. I hope they figure things out and get Drew some quick and effective treatment right away.

Has anyone heard from Brenda? I sent her an email yesterday, but there's been no response yet.

I was wondering about that too, Aurelia. The last couple of things I sent her didn't get answered. I hope she's okay.

oh dear, does anyone have brenda's phone number? That worries me a bit.

Scrappy, I love those shoes. I have a soft spot for Mary Janes. (I thought of naming my daughter Mary Jane, but Franny Lu won out.)

Our day involves a play date at the kindergarten yard for this fall's crop of kindergarteners. I am so proud of my son, but part of me is in denial that he's starting elementary school so soon. And I just found out the teacher I was hoping for is switching to third grade, so now I need to go back to the school and request a new teacher. Oh well.
