    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    OK, neighbors who blast hip hop with lots of bass right on my wall. Hope they like my allergy-induced phleghmfest with Ella Fitzgerald. I may not be able to sing well today, but I can sing LOUD. Enjoy!

    What's for Dinner?

    I loved the subway in D.C. because it was so different than anything I'd experienced. My favorite dinner on that vacation was greek pizza. Have no idea where we got it.

    I understand her. It should feel like autumn when you're pumpkin-shopping. When I lived in SoCal I treasured cloudy/rainy weather because it was rare. Here in WI I feel the opposite.

    What are you wearing today??

    Love the suit, love the car, love the 'stache.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    I admit I'm watching Gilligan's Island right now. And a pet peeve that always reminds me of the show: when coworkers mean "aisle" but write "isle". Oh, so Gilligan lives in our back room?

    Our leaves are just turning a sort of dull yellow and falling off. :(

    This site is filthy!

    I'm sure some well-endowed ladies would like to trade.

    I agree. Our society is extremely over-indulgent.

    Coldest Weather I've been in

    After living in this climate for 13 years, I have an idea as to why. Wind chill is what really affects a person's comfort and sometimes safety (frostbite risk), so people care more about that. Sorry--when I say reporting, though, I mean the general public letting friends and family know...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    I have a pair. I rarely wear them. Denim is just so uncomfortable to me. I prefer sailor pants (any wide-leg pants, really) and longish skirts. I will wear chinos if they are boot-cut and made of stretch twill, but I'm phasing them out of my wardrobe.

    I've been shopping for tights. I was researching and found late '30s ads for tights you were supposed to wear under pantyhose. I don't even....

    Recommendations for inexpensive wines

    Every year for the holidays World Market brings out Reindeer Reserve. The sparkling white they have is to my liking. I forget what grape it is, though. They only have one sparkling variety in that brand. I'm not going to laugh because up in Door County cherries and berries do well and the...

    Coldest Weather I've been in

    I think it was -9F, here in Wisconsin. Around here they will refer to it in terms of windchill rather than air temperature. That always confuses me. "It's negative 15?!? Oh, wait, that can't be right...." every. time. Oh, I just looked up my current city and it says in January of 2008 it...

    What coffee or tea did you drink today?

    Yes, it is. I also like Gevalia house blend. It's ground fine enough to work in the espresso pump.

    What coffee or tea did you drink today?

    I just bought some Maxwell House smooth bold and mixed it with my Cafe Bustelo. That makes a hearty shot of espresso. Of course I added steamed milk and cream and all kinds of chocolate. I always do.

    This site is filthy!

    ...or at least the internet provider furnished by the mall thinks so. Site is blocked and I keep sending reports that it is not, in fact, inappropriate material. Seriously, I have no idea how it got put into that category. :eusa_doh: :eusa_clap :rolleyes:

    How do you know when it's fall? Teen girls in yoga pants and hoodies drinking pumpkin spice lattes.
