[redhotswami]

[Canadiens1131]

Nah, I work in a boring office clerk job right now. I love working in kitchens, though, I may go back to it at some point.

 

[redhotswami]

Kitchens by a mile. You learn how to prioritize very quickly.

EDIT: Oh, and which hot surfaces you can get away with touching.

 

[redhotswami]

Hi Vazza!

Stay a bit!

I had class!

Then I lay out on the lawn after lunch but it was too windy. it's sucha gorgeous day though, I've got my window open and I put on shorts (outside it would be too cool for them) and it's almost spring! except there are still no leaves on the trees.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

describe Spring to me... I think I have forgotten what it's like...

Axver I think the NY times today is a goldmine of locations, they were responsible for Longyearbyen and they also had an article about Bill:

Note the really, really corny joke. We should visit some time.

It is warm, but not too hot, pleasant to sit outside with a light jacket or, on nice/less breezey days, with a t-shirt. You can either drink a hot coffee or eat ice cream without either making you uncomfortable.

the leaves and stuff I have also forgotten, the trees are still all just twigs and branches. And I just realized that when the tree outside my window gets leaves again it will block out the beautiful sunrises I have become accustomed to.

 

[redhotswami]

holy shit. i had no idea they had a product line http://www.rescue-pets.com/

Hi Screwey. You disappeared abruptly yesterday, I thought I'd scared you off

that sounds nice, I can't remember the last time I was warm outside...
