Kelley, I have all their cassette tapes, and thank heaven I still have a cassette player in one car to play them on. Rolling down the highway singing, "Eye in the Sky" is fabulous! ;-)
P.S. I just voted in the NM primary, did you all vote today? They moved our polling place closer to our house, which is a big plus. And some cute little boy came up and asked us at to vote for his uncle- (they are getting younger every day to work at the polls). ![[Snigger]](graemlins/snigger.gif)

Yep, I voted. We're going to get a new mayor for the first time in eighteen years. I hope my man makes the run-off election.

Be glad he was already gone. Most welders use around #5 shade glass. If that was the case, his glass would be insufficient to protect your eyes. You need the solar film stuff like your eclipse glasses or #14 shade glass. Contrary to what some people think, layering a #5 and a #9 is NOT the same as a #14. [ 07.

We had v. good steak breakfast burritos from our local Dunkin Donuts for breakfast as well as donuts and some v. good coffee.
Bad news when we get back to the house: we have a choice between getting a brand-new water heater or replacing a part that costs about 60% as much! Dunno which we will end up doing yet...

last night we had a big crowd at the bar. loud music, lots of dancing, all of us running our feet off. around midnight, an outdoor bar was broken (after just being put up!) because a bunch of muppets decided to sit on it. around 12:30, the ice machine gave up the ghost, and in trying to fix it by punching it, one of our bartenders busted the water line and flooded the kitchen. around 1:30, the big speakers over the dance floor overheated and died on us.
I left at 2:30. I have no idea what else might have died afterwards, but I'm not even going anywhere near that place until our handyman has had time to work through his inevitable meltdown and temper tantrum.
oh - and opening night of "Agnes of God" tonight. just to add spice. ARGH!

Decided to do some foodie things in San Francisco on my day off today (in honor of Birthdaytide beginning). A beautiful sunny day, easy parking (!), traffic that wasn't too bad, and some completely awesome food.
In two weeks I might be there again to try out one of the famous local food trucks ... it's called Bacon Bacon so you can guess what the menu is like!
Came back to news that there was a small fire in the Oakland hills when a car hit a power pole - fire out, but about 7000 people are without power. Scary reminder of the '91 Hills fire.

Yesterday, one of my regulars brought me a new kitten. I was in the market for one, so that was fine, but what made me laugh was his improvised cat carrier. In true red-neck fashion, he used a 5 gallon bucket with holes punched in the top. I think my husband was more excited to get a new bucket that he was about the kitten.
We had an amazing band playing last night at the bar, and I was off-duty so I actually got to relax and just enjoy the evening. This morning, from the state of my head, I think I may have enjoyed just a wee bit too much . Things that seem like a good idea at 2am often turn out not to be.

White female with a grey smudges on her head and around her nose. I don't know her name yet. The guy who gave her to me was calling her Donald Trump because she does look rather like she's wearing a very bad toupee. It's a cute name, but I don't think it's her name if you know what I mean.

Love, love love baby kitties! Lucky you, Bess!
We had rain yesterday and last night! The rain gauge had just a hair under four inches. I had been begging MaryFL (for those of you who remember her) for some of what they were getting two hours north of me. She's had probably a foot of rain this week.

Crickets. I don't like feeding live things to things, but at least it's only insects. Ans we have cricket food in the cage with them so the crickets are happy right up to the time they get eaten.

Love, love, love green anoles! We named the first one Cammy (short for Chameleon) and the second one Sammy. Cammy hitched a ride home with us in a bucket of generic kitty litter from the pet store. She jumped out of the bucket and landed on my 10-year-old son's shoulder, much to his delight. They were very affectionate and would enjoy being taken out of the terrarium to sit in the palm of one's hand and lap at a teaspoonful of water cupped therein. And it was hilarious the way our male cat Koola was freaked out by them. He would perch outside the terrarium, crouched and glowering, while Sammy would strut up to the glass and puff up his dewlap, which would turn bright red. I used to yell, "Enough with the testosterone!" and shoo the cat away. Good memories.

So long as it's not Strumpette. Unless you plan to breed more toupees.
Oooh, Mamacita, those are fun, those anoles! Sometimes I see browner ones, sometimes greener. You find their eggs in the flower beds around the house. I've seen the oldest/largest males get almost a ridge down the back. When I was a grade-schooler, one of the kids down the road had trained (?) hers to bite onto her earlobes, so she could wear them like earrings. (Unknown what the anoles thought of it. She still has earlobes today, according to her Facebook photos. )

The name I'm using for right now is Squeak. Short for Pipsqueak, and also because she more squeaks than meows. It's wonerful fun watching her doing kitten stuff and watching my hubby watching her. He has very very limited experience with kittens and so is amazed by the randomness of it all. And there is something so very endearing and heart-warming about watching a Very Large Man cuddle a Very Small Kitten.

I wonder if I may impose on you for some travel advice.
Liberty and I will be in Seattle for a week or so in mid-July. There is one particular date that we have to keep in the city, but we will have a few days to take a drive somewhere else nearby. We were wondering if Portland would be a good destination, for example. Or maybe some of the scenery in the mountains near by.
What would you recommend?
And thanks in advance. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)

I don't live up there, but I have been there enough times. Portland is a long drive from there - about 140 miles. It's a a lot like Seattle in some ways, great book store, great seafood, great beer, great coffee, hipsters and cultural. But if you want a more outdoorsy feeling, I would drive up into BC, also about 140 miles. If I were you, I would just hang out in Seattle since it is the center of everything and there is plenty to do.

Oooh yeah - Olympic National park looks very nice. A couple of days of hiking could be rather therapeutic.
duchess - Our trip out of the city would be for a few days, so a 140 mile drive is not long at all. But if Portland is just a smaller version of Seattle then perhaps it's not worth it.
Thanks for your thoughts. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)

YIKES! My two nephews just stopped by the bar to drop off something for me and told me how cool it was that I had hung a big rubber snake over the flat-screen TV. It's NOT FREAKING rubber.
Sadly, its proximity to expensive electronics prevents me from shooting it. It's got itself halfway tucked up in the ceiling and hubby can't get it out. Luckily, my shift ends in about 30 minutes, then the snake will be my partner's problem ![[Snigger]](graemlins/snigger.gif)

That has got to be the coolest post I have seen on this thread yet.

Bess, I am awestruck that you are willing to stay in a room with a loose snake for another 30 minutes. I'd be outta there in nothing flat.
