The secret about the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf is if you can’t get to California, you can order a kit online with the coffee extract and flavored powder and make the Iced Blended at home, vanilla or chocolate, in your own blender.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha (wheeze) ha ha (cough) ha ha hack. You warned him ahead of time? About cleaning. You gotta bush whack the sucker with cleaning. Because yes, he’s a man. We don’t need to clean. In fact you don’t need to clean either, you just go mental if you don’t. And have you considered that maybe he was building something to help with the cleaning? Huh?

ABC actually goes with several songs, I just forgot the last one. And Battle Star Galactica can’t hold a candle to Heroes, a show written and directed by God. I had a meal that consisted of beer, peanut butter bars, mystery shrimp leftovers, and carrots. But I’m not pregnant. Just a stoner.

I assume someone already beat me to this, but you can download the rest of season 2 of BSG on iTunes. And if you buy the nifty coaxial cable thingy at walmart, y’all can watch them on your regular TV instead of gathering ’round the ole computer screen.

This very thing happened to me at 2 am on a monday night, when I realized there was NO REST OF SEASON 2. I have never been so grateful for iTunes as I was at that moment. And even though I told myself I would just get an episode or two to get myself through the cliffhanger, I ended up getting the whole season, an episode at a time. I could have saved myself a lot of money by just going ahead and getting the season pass.

There’s a reason that liver is followed by wurst. Which is actually a whimsical German word meaning “Zis meat by-product, it schmeckt wie, how you say, ASS.”

Arby’s jamocha shakes are pretty damn tasty.

Coos Bay is where my grandparents live (I am in Northern CA) and I grew up taking yearly trips there, so it is always interesting and a bit strange to me when you talk about going there. I will be visiting this weekend actually, for the Prefontaine and to “Cruise the Coos” with family, so I will have to try out this Dutch Bros. concoction.

Re: gender test – I left the house, by myself, for the first time in over three days yesterday with specific instructions to get some housework done (I was actually more specific then that) or work on getting the garage straightened up. As I was locking the door behind myself, I heard the football game get turned on. When I came home: “I couldn’t do much because Baby woke up from her nap like five minutes after you left.” Uh, do you think that I don’t do anything when Baby is awake? Then, as I needed his help with something, he conveniently took a work call and didn’t come to help me until I was buried under a pile and was yelling for him…I think that I will power the TV through the vacuum so that the only way he can watch football is while cleaning…. Also, does it take your husband six times as long to do something, including errands, than it takes you? I don’t get it — where’s the vortex?

p.s. We watched BG Season 1 like crack addicts just to get caught up in time to watch Seasons 2 and 3 in real time because it’s such an incredible show (oh and we’re geeks) – so sorry to hear Season 3 is not yet available on DVD.

Ah the old “this week-end we have to do X” In ten years that phrase has translated to “this week-end MRW will end up doing X while husband disappears” all but about 3 times. It has been the source of countless arguments in my house and shows no signs of slowing down. Managed to keep cleaning the house from being on the list by hiring a house cleaner 8 years ago and never looking back.

I have a similar perfect summer coffee drink issue – there is a small coffee stand in Sisters, Oregon that makes the best iced/blended mocha I’ve ever had. Have tried other places in Portland, no dice. Depressing. Since my in-laws live in Sisters we are there about every other month or so and I make sure to get at least one every time because it is coffee perfection.
