Sushi (though that's cheating a bit, really, as it's a range of food, not just one dish)

Really good spit-roasted lamb over charcoal (or pig ... or duck ... or chicken ... hmm ... well, you get the idea. Some form of dead animal or bird, slow-roasted over charcoal, basted with olive oil and wine and its own drippings ... )

Real Greek salad with no lettuce

I feel ...: hungry

6'4", skinny, brown/hazel (sort of), funny looking. (I am assured.) As with many coyotes, you will likely see the nose preceding the rest of me.

If I'm on your friends list and you're not on mine, why are you reading me? I'd love to know. If you are, of course; I might be on there for some entirely other reason. I know some people added me so I could read individual posts linked from other people's journals, and stuff.

But I am curious.

Thursday and today I indulged in milkshakes made with LactAid milk and LactAid ice cream. Both days I've had all the symptoms of a lactose reaction a couple hours later. I had a small serving of the ice cream with no ill effects yesterday; I suspect I've got a bad batch of the milk. I've written to the company, including both lot numbers.

My sinus crud was just starting to lighten up; I was really hoping to actually feel good for a few hours!

Weddings make me cry.

Marriage Equality Comes to California
By George Takei

Our California dream is reality. Brad Altman and I can now marry. We are overjoyed! At long last, the barrier to full marriage rights for same-sex couples has been torn down. We are equal with all citizens of our state!"

Lots more goodness at the link.

The Inner Magpie pendants shown in the photos are the ones that didn't turn out perfectly. Some are still good, and a few will be sold as seconds. The ones with the tape over them are having bails epoxied to them, and the tape holds the bails while the glue is curing. See?

First for the TMI, then to a story/question.

I've had the weirdest period this month. Absolutly no cramps, bloating, but my crotch looks like a murder scene. It's the brightest red blood I've ever seen. I'm used to the brown goo that comes with taking this pill. Also, no breast pain, but my boobs are easily two sizes bigger than they were before.

ANYWAY, here's the question...
So, last month, i picked up 3 packs of birth control. I put them in a brown bag so I wouldn't lose them or have them fly out of my purse, embarrassing me.

I threw them on my dresser and used one pack and forgot about them.

Right now, I realized I need to start a new pack tomorrow. I can't find the pills anywhere. ANYWHERE. I'm like WTF, how did i manage to lose them?

Brown bag... probably thought it was garbage when cleaning my room the last time. Thrown them out.

And it's the long weekend in canada, so I can't get new pills until Tuesday...

AND I just started dating a new boy too. Good timing, right?

So, should i just be a tuesday start for this month? or should i try to make up for the pills I missed? I know I should use protection for the next 7 days, but, anyone? anyone? Bueller?

Anyone know if there's a way to open/extract files from a .pfc (Personal Filing Cabinet, from AOL) file without having AOL installed? The file is from 2001 or so.

Also, I have to go back to the courthouse on Monday to finish my Jury Duty.. I hope that'll be the last day!

We've just come back from the trip down to the border to actually do the "landing" bit of being landed immigrants. Some of us were a bit worried that they'd change their minds at the last minute, but they didn't. We left Z's girlfriend in our apartment with instructions to post all the books if they wouldn't let us in again... but they did. We are home! We are as Canadian as possible under the circumstances!

We've been working towards this for a long time.

I feel ...: discontent

So my dog sleeps in bed with me. A little while ago she woke me up and was acting kind of hyper. I didn't really think much of it, because sometimes in the middle of the night she randomly decides she wants to play, so I just ignored her. A little while later I notice she's sitting down, but still moving around quite a bit. I think she's chewing on something, so I reach down and feel...a chunk of something. Totally squicked out because I think she may have thrown up and I just stuck my hand in it, I turn on the light to see a big chunk of poo. Which I just touched, with my bare hands! I still want to puke.
