So now we have "OT Australia" and "OT Texas"? :D
Dinner tonite? Gee, I dunno.
I have no idea.
Probably just a baked potato and some cheese.
Dar, I'd be happy to make you some chicken soup!
Cuz I have family there? :rolleyes: :pQuote:

Those teeny weeny hawks that kill the pigeons downtown are called kestrels.

I am too busy to post in yet another drifting thread this week, but I AM here!!! :rolleyes: :D
OMG! FOUR TDs!!! This one wasn't even there yesterday when I logged off, and today it's already up to 4 pages :eek: When will I ever find time to get out on my bike now?
Today's after-work plan is to give RubySlipperz and Big Red their Spring cleanings, including changing Big Red's pedals to semi-clipless (one side platform) and maybe even giving per a new saddle (if I find a good one at the LBS on my way home). Forecast for tomorrow is rain, but forecast for Saturday is sunny again. Now if I can just get myself off the net long enough for a ride on Saturday, I'll have something to post about when I get home. :o
Cool picture of the herons T! :cool:
Coffee time. :)
I've pretty much been living on Frosties since Monday. I just don't feel like eating ANYthing -- not even my homemade gluten-free chicken noodle soup.
Frosties? As in Sugar Frosted Flakes??Quote:

I like pie.
Mmmm, chocolate.
Hmm... haven't heard from X or Kit... should we start calling jails in the Reno area? Or do you think they're visiting the "ranches" of Reno :p
DEFINITELY chocolate. I'm not a big vanilla fan. I like to let them get real melty first before eating them. Same thing with ice cream.Quote:

Woop. Found X and Kit in TD: Oz.. Man, gotta keep up with all these :)
Oooo...
Frosties and french fries (dipped, of course, in the Frostie).
The breakfast of champions!! :D
Mmmmmm....
Frosties are actualy health food. Very low fat as I recall.
Oh good Lord - not another TD! Say it isn't so...
We had boiled crawfish last night. Ohhhhhhh so yummy!
And a frosty must be lowfat. How do you like the vanilla one?
4 td's? I only know about 3!
eeek.
It is so beautiful outside i didn't need a coat!
I got so behind on the other TD's that I became overwhelmed by the amount of reading I would have to do to catch up.
This one is still quite manageable.
Must find a frosty.....
ETA: crawfish??? Yum!!!!!
We're going to drop the kiddies off at the grandparents and get a sack of crawfish to boil (that's approx 35 lbs) and eat and eat and eat for our anniversary. Well, we won't eat toooooo much! :p
I'm buried in data analyses. bleh
Seriously - 35 pounds???? That's almost enough crawfish for me. Almost. :cool:
You know how I eat! We had 10 lbs last night and it was gone in a flash!
The two of us could do some serious damage at an all -you-can eat place!
Yeah, they'd lose money on us. :rolleyes:
I have a nice new chair in my office. It's one of those mesh-backed chairs with a cushy leather seat. Nice!
New pup comes home tomorrow :) We've warned the cats!
There's something that makes me giggle when I see the students here at work mowing with a bee veil on. It just looks silly.
What's the new pup's name??
Ok what is a crawfish???Quote:

Trekhawk - Gasp... crawfish (crayfish) are part of louisiana culture! They are similar to what you might know as a yabby? BTW - do you know what a yabby pump is? I used one extensively as a grad student (actually I have my own). Here's a link with all sorts of info on crawfish: http://www.crawfish.org/home.htm
Crawfish etouffe - YUM!! Gosh, thinking about food is the last thing I need.
Cassi is a great name! Nice constallation, too.
TH - you would like crawfish, I am sure. Do you like lobster? Very similar.
Thanks DrBee - they sound yummy. I have seen a yabby pump but I have never used one. All this talk of yummy things has made me very hungry.:)Quote:
