mmmm.... fresh crab. only a couple more months to go before crab season starts. though i still have some in the freezer from last season. anyone need some crab? i have about half of a 40 lb box left.

On second thought, I don't believe it was the crab.

This is turning into a major "ate some gluten somewhere" event. The only new thing I ate today was a Green Tea Frappucino with whipped cream at Starbucks. (it was good, by the way)

I wonder if there was some wheat starch thickener used to make it creamy?

Dang, now I gotta stay home tonight. Hangin' out in the little room with no windows. At least I have the September issue of Bicycling to read! (and there's a woman on the cover!) And I have my titanium tri bracelet to get narcissistic over.

Edit: dammit, the Starbucks site doesn't list ingredients. Guess I won't be ordering any of those Frappacinos in the future.

My LBS is great with my questions, and will show me stuff and tell me how to fix things myself. Plus they are willing to almost match the prices for things at Nashbar if I need to make a special order. And they have used parts for some things.

Used parts - that's the mark of a good bike shop. Glad they're willing to take time showing you things.

HOW many pages of TD have gone by? OK, to catch up:
Mr. Tennis is definately a guy, and Japanese, I think, and hot. 'Course, with hair and arms like that, even if he was a chick, I'd think he's hot. I'm not too picky. =)
Mimi- your tortie is beautiful! I had a tortie that looked a lot like her- Tsukiko. I've always heard that torties have a personality so unlike any other cat, and I've honestly never seen anything to the contrary. Tsuki had this affinity for playing hide-and-seek, chasing through the house until she 'found' me, then bushing all her fur (bottlebrush tail) and running a little, stopping to see if I was chasing her, then 'encouraging' me to chase her thru the house until she zipped under the bed. Then I'd go back to whatever I was doing, she'd come out, slip around corners all sneaky-like, until she was right next to me, then repeat. She also played 'fetch' and walked through the house talking to us and herself. Silly girl. Does your kitty have such quirks?
OK, so the interview was scary. I was essentially told that the company was only 21 months old, and they'd fired both their administrators in this time period. If hired, I'd be in charge of basically the whole show- as in everything would be on *my* shoulders. No medical/dental/vision benefits yet, but they were excited to be adding medical in 3 months.
unorthodox 30 second interviews- not what I was prepared for, but I did my best, and we shall see.
