spira mirabilisspira mirabilis - LiveJournal.comPharmacychemist questions- July 18, 2008 Thank you all for your pharmacy help before!I'm asking for more help because I can't find much online. :( Maybe I'll get together with you guys later and write a book. (Don't worry, I'll ask permission!)Here are three more questions for you. Anyone from anywhere in the world is welcome to answer! The more the better. Anonymous comments are on (wait for approval.)1.

I haven't cut into it yet so I can't confirm exactly what it is, but it looks and smells delicious!http://wintersweet.livejournal.com/1295201.html Random notes- July 17, 2008 Tried making oven-fried green tomatoes last night. Not a success. They were OK, but...eh. I'm not trying to make them again (with any technique) until I've had them cooked by someone who knows how to make them. Despite living 16 or so years in the South, I've never actually HAD them before.My pharmacy is out of my BCP. I know that pharmacies get deliveries and things happen just like any other store, but I was still kind of shocked. But he called some others in the same chain and I'll just go...http://wintersweet.livejournal.com/1294943.html Twitter Log for Today- July 17, 2008 09:36 jonk ha, Cracker Barrel. Jokes aside, the 1st time I tried one it was better than I'd expected. Try Red Tractor in Dublin, Ole's in Alameda 09:43 jonk Ole's (oh-lee's) makes biscuits and gravy that's close to my mom's, which I can't find in Fremont. Mmm! OK, bagel time. 09:46 OK, I'm off to PJ's for Fremont's best bagels and cheapest decent coffee, then off to the Great Mall (rarely fruitful, but we'll see). 09:48 mactavish Duly noted. :) Maybe if we take that trip down the coast in..http://wintersweet.livejournal.com/1294479.html Bah.- July 16, 2008 Shopping failure. Lane Bryant Outlet runs to t-shirts, which I don't care about, and has the same issues with cap sleeves and empire waists. (Anybody up for a letter-writing campaign I wonder if they'd listen.) I tried on two tops: one proved to look like a circus tent AND turned out to have sequins; the other fit nicely everywhere except the bust, where it seemed to have been fitted for somewhere between a B and C cup. (All of their surplice tops, on the other hand, seem to be made for F cups..http://wintersweet.livejournal.com/1294314.html A random question (maybe for Californians only)- July 16, 2008 My client asked me about something he's seen while driving, and I was stumped. Some cars have a paper () square in their back window with a white border, a red square inside the border, and a white number inside the square. The cars have regular license plates and all. He wants to know what the number is all about, and (after I dredge up subconscious memories of seeing 'em) now I do too. Googling has not been productive. Anyone knowhttp://wintersweet.livejournal.com/1293908.html Twitter Log for Today- July 16, 2008 08:40 I rarely use my iPod, so of course when I want it, I can't find the charger. Grumble. (My 1 tech wish is more modular chargers & cables( 10:36 jonk I know; I can't deal wclassic Trek, but Takei's voice is just fantastic. Purr. He needs to get more voice work! 10:36 DivaLea Amen, universal chargers for all! Just put in a doohickey in the middle that adjusts the power.

Hoping to go back out again before first appointment. Stir-crazy. 10:26 Proofreadingediting takes a LONG time if you give enough feedback to help the writer improve. 10:46 wholefoods Thanks. :) Man, now I'm craving WF bakery stuff, darnit. Must conserve gas and not drive to Palo Alto... 11:08 Spent too much time proofreadingediting. Guess I should go get my coffee out of the car, because I don't have time to go anywhere now..http://wintersweet.livejournal.com/1293259.html Comic-Con- July 14, 2008 I'm going to copy yendi and ask if anyone going to San Diego Comic-Con (who doesn't play KoL themselves, of course) would be willing to pick up the free items at Asymmetric's booth, 1431. I'd reimburse shipping, of course. Anybody :) (I figured it was worth a try to get the items for assaultdoor, who plays regularly. I play once in a while.)http://wintersweet.livejournal.com/1292598.html Twitter Log for Today- July 14, 2008 00:42 Up too late. I blame stupidly addicting Korean genderbending romantic comedy TV shows. Or rather, just the one. 00:45 Ongoing dread of trying to get comfortable and sleep + strangely addicting TV shows = no urge for bed. But Sunday=Hellboy II in SF, so must. 00:51 I broke Google Maps. 11:12 Someone wapplied linguisticsTESOL bkgrd needs to update the Berliz wikipedia page to reflect the outdatedness of the method (wcitations) 11:49 Wondering if I should buy tickets in advance for...http://wintersweet.livejournal.com/1292456.html |
