I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

I'm getting the pig!

aurelia, for veggies - you can add a cup or so of raw spinach to your carnation breakfast. 30 seconds in the blender and you're good to go. I have a vanilla shake that I drink on the weekends and although it turns the shake green, I can't even taste the spinach.

I asked him why she didn't sign for the package, and he said that the lights were out and the door was locked.

Wow. Massive FAIL! Kids these days.

I'm finally feeling mostly better after almost three weeks of being sick. And the hole in my mouth from a root extraction last week is healing nicely. I swear, the last couple months of the year always try to kick my ass, so I've come to expect this nonsense.

In good news, though, I'm now out of the boring domestic beer business and learning the export side as the Puerto Rico analyst. New stuff! Yay!

So I have this old friend who I used to tease about her over-the-top xmas decorating. Then she got married and moved away. And now she's chiding her husband that once she can read by the light of the outdoor displays, it is enough. I find this hilarious. He'd do well on 34th street. Has penguins and polar bears and animatronic deer and baubles and trees and santas and and and. He's not done. It's crazy!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Really hoping this is nowhere near any of our California-istas!!

Now authorities face the risky task of getting rid of the explosives. The property is so dangerous and volatile that that they have no choice but to burn the home to the ground this week in a highly controlled operation involving dozens of firefighters, scientists and hazardous material and pollution experts.

I have to share this: [link] in the xmas parade. I was NOT the one who started making plushie jokes. Though I thought it, thanks to y'all.

As the woman quoted in the article said, that's INSANE.

(The whole set is worth looking at, if you want a taste of Baltimore's xmas parade. It's a lot, but it is awesome!)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I am simultaneously disappointed and relieved that I will not be in Baltimore for Christmas.

Baltimore is special. I love it (clearly.) It's so interesting and unselfconscious and broken and proud and homey and friendly and complicated. And it is beautiful.
