My neighbor brought by a huge surplus of basil from her garden last night. This morning I made a pot of basil simple syrup. love

Basil-lemon drop:

2 oz. basil simple syrup
3 oz. vodka
2 oz. lemon juice

I add water to my cocktail shaker to taste but I'm sure a lot of people would shudder at the thought. Do whatcha like.

The schools here suck but they are better then those in the LA area. The cost of housing still sucks even with the massive drop in the market.

Aww, thank you for noticing, ma'am. I just haven't felt funny in a long time. I'm trying wicked hard to snap out of it, though.

A lot of people are theoretically interested in a lot of things.
toothpickmoe:
Hypothetically, yes.

I know, right? You'd think they'd encourage anything to bring attention.

Waiting on the folks who want to buy our business to get the approval from their financier. As soon as it's finalized, I can get our plane tickets and start making more solid Portland plans.

So, if you've got fingers, cross 'em for me. If you don't have fingers, then I imagine you have some pretty cool Captain Hook style attachments. What's your favorite one?...

i just made my hands into little hooks and hooked them together for you.

(kinda punchy myself)

Your plans sound a lot more fun than FedEx. It's odd how some jobs suck the life out of you, even if they're part-time. For example, one of mine= only 8 hrs. this week, but felt more grueling than my 20 of major physical labor. Funny how that is.

And thank you. I can't find my sports bras nor the one lone pair of Reebok (I think it is) black running shorts. Hey, at least it's not as abysmally hot as last night. eeek

me too. i hate anything that bothers my ears. lately i get more ear infections than a small child. frown

our 'tv' with Digital College Network at work has the trailer for "It Might Get Loud" and today i was staring at it when a co-worker approached. i said on Jack White "sometimes i think he is so beautiful, yet sometimes i think he's really ugly. it intrigues me about him."
notoriouscat:
sorry, i missed your second post. blush
nope, not skating, just a big fan for now.
i was planning on trying out for next season, but work issues have put a damper on that idea, unfortunately. Alex and i have attended every bout this season together, so she calls me her derby wife.

I want to hear about King Corn when you finish it. Or sooner, if you like.

Thanks to the few people who took the time to offer some comfort. I assume the rest of those who read it either disagree, don't care, or are too busy contemplating the hilarity of AIDS.

i didn't even see that, but man i'm sorry. addiction is a shitty thing to deal with, especially when you want to help but you know you are powerless.

i'm really sorry.
meatpieboy:
Hey. I've been off SG for about two weeks traveling and not computering. Sorry I missed that.

I don't honestly know anything about addiction beyond booklearning. It feels like nothing given what you're dealing with.

I do sincerely hope for you and him that your bro can fight his brain and break the habit.

I saw Lily Tomlin on Kathy Griffin saying that she was banned from Late Night with Conan O'Brien for asking him not to use "douchebag" as a pejorative. Lily's contention is that it's "anti-woman" to use it that way.

I think since douching is damaging to the delicate balance of a vagina, it is inherently anti-woman. Therefore, douchebag as a pejorative is actually feminist.

Discuss.

I must disagree.

When I think of douchebag, I think of home enema. In that respect, it's equally offensive to both sexes.
d_day:
Yeah, I know it was tongue in cheek. But since we were Offering arguments, I thought I'd come up with a new one.
