Don't encourage her, You. No, really. Don't.

Those are crystals. I want diamonds.

But You, you're definitely in the right direction!

*sigh* Manners, shi-shi, manners.

Well, for that display of grace, then you get this one instead!

[shira467]

Posted: 6/9/08 at 7:55pm

Let me backtrack.

Thank you so much for your consideration, YWIW. Perhaps next time, we can get real diamonds? Thank you.

Encourage Shira? No, never. Bad, bad idea, folks.

Hi all. Finally got home in the heat - using a series of buses. The train is kaput. Usually when they have a problem they make announcements telling everybody to expect a delay. Tonight they're saying "Make other arrangements to get home". Just what you want to hear in this heat. I can't imagine what those poor people stuck in the tunnel in that train must be going through. God bless them.

DG - Miss P and her gang and I are meeting Glebby for dinner Wednesday! Then it's the ballet. Sadly no babies this trip. Of course I'm really glad he didn't bring them in this heat.

Which reminds me - I think we should move the 7/19 get together to DD's place AND we should do it now. The temp in your corner of the country sounds perfect to me!

Yeesh, I had no idea this heat caused that much havoc with the trains. Very good to know, for a NYC novice like myself.

My train's in the Washington, DC area - but really bad heat can affect the rails and cause disruptions.

[shira's chef]

Posted: 6/9/08 at 8:39pm

Ah, okay. Still good to know. I'm not totally familiar with the buses yet, so I should probably get used to them. :) But welcome home to the AC.

[D2]

Posted: 6/9/08 at 8:48pm

The buses? In NYC? Are you serious?

Advice: give yourself extra travel time to get anywhere. Like a day and a half.

[shira's chef]

Posted: 6/9/08 at 8:49pm

Yeah, I mean, I'll take the train any day for transportation, but I didn't know how common it was for the weather to screw with the system.

[Mamie]

Our poor subway system is really getting it tonight. They just put out an notice that another part of that same line, only this time at Eastern Market in DC, was down because of a suspicious package left on the platform.

When it rains it pours....

She'll learn, D2!

I like the crosstown buses. They work for me, most of the time.

NY subways were screwy today, too. 7online e-mail alert told me so.

The heat brings out the crazies almost as much as a full moon does.

[shira467]

Posted: 6/9/08 at 9:44pm

I think the heat is worse.

Posted: 6/10/08 at 3:06am

Geez, all these issues!

It's absolutely beautiful here in the Vegas vicinity. But I'm nowhere near the strip, which I loathe. Perfect temp, very quiet and all the stars!

I'll be headed to the western slope of Colorado tomorrow - God's country. I can't wait to breathe the air.

And all you DC people should give Glebby and I lots to catch up on

morning all.

Good morning Middy!

Something cool for breakfast:



(I'm not sure what looks better - the fruit or the carved ice bucket it's in!)

Now - where's that iced coffee?

[midnghtdolphin]

Posted: 6/10/08 at 6:23am

thanks mamie! it looks delicious! (and i have to agree with you on not knowing which looks better... the fruit looks really good, but on a hot day like today's gonna be i know the ice would be wonderful too!)

[D2]

Posted: 6/10/08 at 7:05am

mornin'.







Ask and ye shall receive, Mamie.

[Mamie]

Posted: 6/10/08 at 7:10am

Great! Now - pour it over my head!

[D2]

Posted: 6/10/08 at 7:12am

I'm legally bound not to do that.
