Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Excellent, Matt! Volcano fajitas sound dangerous, though.

Cherry pie is the one true pie. Nothing else will do.

Sarameg, that sounds very productive to me.

"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

They probably *are* dangerous, they're mixed grill fajitas served in a sizzling bowl made of volcanic rock. (I'm picturing something like a geode, but maybe it's a smooth carved stoneware skillet?)

I realized that now that I've made a public statement about it, I actually have to go to the place next Friday to put my money where my mouth is. Not that I mind putting singles in a G-string or two, but I'm a lot less tolerant of loud clubs than I used to be.

The possibility of having a guest over tonight (since evaporated) lit a fire under me today and got me to declutter, clean my bathroom, do laundry, and basically everything else I need to make my loft presentable except vacuum. I also did grocery shopping and hung up a set of scrabble lights I bought in St. Louis.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They responded that everyone was welcome and changed the blurb to "Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting [strip revue's name]". So it looks like it was just a case of someone not thinking through the implications of their phrasing. Next time I have a craving for volcano fajitas, I can eat them with a clear conscience.

That's great. I don't think you necessarily have to go there for the strip show, either!

Shower, check. First load of laundry in, check.

I'm putting off the shower until after I rake leaves. Which I oughta got get on to doing.

Oh crap, I have to rake, too. I have to shower before laundry because most of my clothes get hung in the bathroom. I should have raked first of all!

I'm still on the couch. Pinned by cats. One in particular. Plus his weight is on a tight muscle and it is actually helping.

Uh oh, Pumpkin just took after a toy, I predict mayhem and no excuses shortly.

Ugh. From 7-730 someone's car alarm/horn was going off outside. Hate. Want to go smash in their car window. I mean, could've been worse, I was half awake anyway and went to bed early, but...

Yay Matt! I do think you should go see the strippers. Just for the stories you could then tell us. Think about US, Matt.

Ugh, that is annoying!

Outside pants on, empanadas consumed. Time for leaves.

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

It's nice to know strippers are an option, whether or not you choose to enjoy them, Matt.

I just finished pulling a ton of over enthusiastic salvia out of my garden, along with yards of poorly performing soaker hose, and planting hydrangeas. I'm thinking that some autumn ferns and Lenten roses would finish things nicely--I'll see if there are some good sales. After a day of warm rain a cold front came through last night, so the air is like champagne. It's a great day to be outside, gardening of not.
