And for the record, if I’d known Bell Biv Devoe was going to be on, I TOTALLY WOULD HAVE WATCHED.
Stupid allergies. Or stupid head cold. Six of one, half dozen of the other.
Made a cheese and onion quiche for lunch; now I’m not sure what to do with the rest of my day. (That means I will waste it on video games.)
You’re very welcome for the blasting Dixieland-jazz soundtrack, Central Square. It’s my pleasure.
The new Gossip album is excellent. I was concerned, as the new single is so much more polished than their usual sound. But yeah, it’s great.

I am improvising a curried chickpea & sweet potato stew based on whatever ingredients I have on hand. Also made fresh lime/lemonade.

Quick fashion poll! Ankle-cuff sandals: of the moment and amazing, or ugly soon-to-be-disposed-of trend?
Report: the Somerville AJ Wright is surprisingly nice. Like if I didn’t know, I wouldn’t think it was an AJ Wright at all.
I’m debating a visit to the Somerville AJ Wright, since I have kindly pledged to drive my husband into Cambridge for a tournament today.
I really am going to have “Human Nature” stuck in my head for the rest of my life, aren’t I? ♫ http://blip.fm/~8z5v2

Really, REALLY excellent ribs. I am so full I think I might die. It’ll be a fragrant, barbecue-saucey death, at least.
I think the Australians are big fakers. Really excellent ribs, though.
I think I’ve eaten more meat today than I have in the prior four weeks combined. I may live to regret this.
I just ate a RED VELVET whoopie pie. OMG. We’re at the Phantom Gourmet BBQ Beach Party thingy.

I am sad it took Michael Jackson’s death to make it happen, but damn is it ever amazing to see MTV playing actual music videos again.
Via @TechCrunch The Web Collapses Under The Weight Of Michael Jackson’s Death http://tcrn.ch/4gp
I’m pretty much in denial that Michael Jackson is dead. It doesn’t seem possible.
Oh shit, it’s the SUN!
What is this giant flaming sphere up in the sky? I don’t understand! Is it the endtimes?

Regarding the dress in the previous: I finally got myself to an Avenue to look at those cheap sundresses, and they’re surprisingly great.
