Yesterday when she learned in environmental science that tap water is cleaner than bottled, and that was something that I had advised her of a long time ago. Moreover, bottled water I learned can seep plastic into the water when left in a hot car trunk, for example, over time.
Pictures on my walk home from Castro Valley BART station.
Alex’s amazing cooking!
The pasta sauce was made before we went really low-carb, but the point is that she was able to pretty much replicate my Mom’s homemade red sauce.
The second picture is of her purely vegetable and meat portabello bun sandwich.
Aaron’s sort of Going Away Tropical-Themed Party
My friend Aaron is going to Holland for an internship for his Ph.D. in chemistry so he had a going away party last weekend. There was great food, great music and a lot of fun people with a good mix of gay and hetero folks in San Leandro.
Some dancing (that I actually participated in)!
Daughter and I are going to start to look for places to live in the Emeryville/Oakland area starting tomorrow.
Landlords divorced after decades and foreclosed, basically. I can’t buy the place, so unless a family member comes through with a cash offer, we have to move anyway by beginning of April.
Made Phoenix plans for Spring!
I’m traveling to Phurfest and hoping to see friends and family in Arizona in late April/early May. It’s a state I’ve never stepped foot in, to my knowledge, but which my family has a long history in, apparently. I’ve seen a lot of relatives going back generations move and return to Arizona, and I know my dad lived there for a time as a kid. Ancestry.com has helped prove the links I have to the area, but I’m also looking forward to some pool parties and dry heat, which is one of the reasons I moved back to the West Coast.
Liz Cheney announced she is against DADT *after* she emcee’s the conservative conference!
I’m sure the check was deposited before she released the statement today.
It’s no surprise that she would support her lesbian sister and concur with her father, but somehow this hypocrite whose family still profits off of the wars in the Middle East, still holds herself out as some kind of new age Repub.
“Retard” Brouhaha is not what it seems…
Doubt the Palin clan knew actress portraying mentally retarded character on Family Guy has Downs Syndrome before they started lambasting it. Before the Palins had a stage, the “Petarded” episode, where the main character was found to have a very low IQ, didn’t get much flack. Apparently SOME of the letter that the actress wrote to the New York Times was published, but not the part that accused Sarah of carrying her son around “like a loaf of bread” for sympathy votes!
