I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The hospital has internet access, even though the house still does not.

I still have had no liquor, since dinner was Subway, eaten in the ER waiting room last night.

And now we're under an advisory to boil water. Ha. Ha ha.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Ooh, Matt, my dad would be so envious of the Russian restaurant. He loves Central European food and it's not that common out here in LA. Loads of ethnic restaurants, but not a ton of European ethnicity restaurants.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I saw HPVII-PartI today (there ought to be a better acronym

Preferably one that doesn't make me want to encourage young women to get their Gardisil vaccinations.

Thank you Cass, so glad it's not just me. My first thought was, "sounds like a new strain of herpes."

That restaurant article makes me want to go out to eat. Hmm. Maybe we need to plan a very LAista outing to good food in a casual setting. Preferably kid-friendly.

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

Dana, I am so sorry you are having such a collection of troubles all at once.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I gather it's really a sort of pan-Central Asian place. The owner is from Uzbekistan, but their menu is about half Russian and features other countries too (I think plov is Turkish?). Saturday nights they supposedly do a Russian disco thing.

Spidra, back in 2004 I ate in a Russian place that was in a strip mall between Santa Monica Blvd. and Sunset. Maybe it's still there?

Spidra, has he ever been to Warzawa? It's a Russian restaurant in Santa Monica, been there for decades. I've never been there myself so I don't know how good it is.

Dana, your last few days have been rotten.

Marketted, where I only bought empanadas. Then leaves. 2 hours and 7 bags of leaves. My walk, the sidewalk of 4 houses and street. Next up: swim. After I eat something.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I have a maple pecan pie in the oven and the ingredients for the pumpkin pie sort of around. They bake at different temperatures, so I can't do both at once. That's ok—it'll keep the nice smells coming out of the kitchen for a longer time.

Sounds interesting, Matt.

He may have been, Burrell. He's not a fan of the West Side so he's not as likely to go out there. But I just sent him a list of Russian restaurants in LA. Esp since he's been out at UCLA doing research anyway.
