Sterling Suxors
   Last night the fire alarm went off again at Kristy's complex, Sterling, and proceeded to go off for quite some time. I think this is at least the third time in the last six months I've been there when the alarm went off, and I distinctly remember it going off for 40 minutes straight one evening. Now I've lived in The Trees for a year and a half now, and NOT ONCE has the alarm gone off here. Reason #513 why Sterling is a sucky place to live full of immature people.
   The alarm went off about as often back when I was in the dorms, but THERE they always managed to shut it off within ten minutes TOPS.


Auntie Bev & Uncle Ben
   Yes the name similarity is as bad as say... "Kris & Kristy." Ben & Bev are one of two sets of aunt/uncles I have in town here. They live on J Street. On Thursday Kristy and I had dinner at their place. On Saturday I stopped by there to borrow two wineglasses and a corkscrew for the vday plans. Today (Monday) I stopped by to return the wineglasses, and ask for help understanding "chi squared," a statistical technique which will be on my test tomorrow. While an employee of some sustainable agriculture part of the University (That keeps the agricultural industry informed of our latest revelations here at Davis or something I think), Aunt Bev is also a stats grad student on campus.
   This story has no further point. Ben & Bev are excellent however. And damn can they make a delicious Thai dish.

2. STRONGBAD EMAIL KICKS ANAL CAVITIES!

1) The cat is ferocious. As soon as you let down your gaurd it will cause you to bleed and break out with CAT SCRATCH FEVER!

2) That couch looked so familiar for a reason. I think I've slept on it before...

3) Yum!

They also have this delicious seasonal sugar plum tea. So delicious, and so terrifyingly seasonal that after experiencing it at Ben & Bev's, Kristy scampered off to buy the rest that Safeway had in stock (two boxes of it).

I don't know which is more frightening - Tea seasonality or impulse shopping!

I think of impulse shopping as seeing something on the shelf at the store and immediately buying it... Kristy plotted, dremt, planned, and schemed, to buy the rest of the safeway stock of the tea for days before she did the deed. (=

Ok... that's much more neurotic that impulse shopping. You win.

Last time I schemed about shopping I ended up with way WAY too much ice!

::shurg:: you gotta taste the tea in question.

Is there a story behind this ice incident?

It all happened a long time ago, in a land far far away. The willow tree swayed slowly in the evening breeze as the merry duck prince finished gargling before bedding down for the night....


and so the story goes!

My cat!

She is getting MUCH nicer in her old age, and the cat scratch fever was a one time incident! Plus, without the fever we would have never had such an awesome connection to the hit song.

Her weight problem is obviously an emotional one, as she is still feeling lonesome after the death of her dear friend Addie. :-(
But I think she may be loosing weight! Go Margaret!
