Erika, Christopher wants to know the temp in Phoenix.
Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust me.

Punishingly Intricate
grr I have this big review thing at the govt agency who is our client today and had the hardest time finding out I was supposed to bring for it and someone just came in and was like do you have the blah blah blah? NO NOBODY TOLD ME I NEEDED THE BLAH BLAH BLAH!
And I probably don't actually need what she was talking about but now I'm all stressed out.
And a bunch of the internal tools I need are effed up and grrr.
Stupid having to work! I prefer last Wednesday -- lying on the beach, reading magazines, napping, drinking tropical drinks.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm browsing vacation packages to Puerto Rico. Because there's really no better time to crave a beach vacation than right before having a baby and adjusting to being a one-income family, right?

Well, the craving is certainly understandable!

Fruit Sip is a berry fruit juice (the recipe calls for apple-cherry, but I use Berry Juicy Juice or a cran-something something) that you heat up on the stove with 3 sticks cinnamon, 1/2 cup raisons or dried cranberries or both, 1/4 - 1/2 cup dates, and 2-3 whole allspice (optional). heat on simmer for a while. drain out all the stuff. YUMMY GOODNESS that makes the house smell yum.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
January 2, my niece moves to the Virgin Islands to start her new job.
This means I can go to the Virgin Islands, and sleep on her couch.
mmm. Warmth. Beaches. Umbrella drinks. Cabana boys. Warmth.

Doesn't hurt to look, Jessica!
Good luck on your drive, aurelia--be careful out there!
It's sunny again today. They've done a good job of cleaning off our sidewalks and parking lot here at the apartment complex, so when Dad comes up and we head out to the movies, I'm going to drive. (Oh, and my seatbelt is already looser than it was!) The only movie playing near me that I can imagine he might like is Unstoppable.
I'm wearing my smaller pants right now, and ITFG!!! They're still a tad snug, but totally wearable. They'll fit perfectly by next week. I tried on a new shirt I'd deliberately ordered last month in a smaller size, but that'll have to wait until mid-January, I think. I can put it on, but it's skin tight across the belly.

Great news on the pants Kathy. Are you on an exercise regime to deal with the weight loss?

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
It was, like, almost 80 yesterday. Which is bizarre, in a completely opposite way from -18, in that you could almost enjoy it, but still, strange and unsettling for having carol commercials on television and all that. Next week it should be 62...which is closer to normal. We do have winter. Or at least "winter" and I want to have it.
