Get well, SQT. Good night, and thanks for the good trip wishes. I'll think of you when I"m slogging around the San Diego zoo with a two year old crying "No, I want to see the monkeys! No elephants! Monkeys! Monkeys!"
That's the plan, but early would be 7-ish. And since my daughter is a 6AM girl lately, that could actually happen for once.
Probably. I also haven't packed yet, or printed directions, or figured out where the hotel is... Such a good planner I am.
Oh well head south on 15 and I'm bound to run into San Diego eventually.
I don't mind packing. I just throw a bunch of stuff in a bag. Then I get where I'm going and remember everything I forgot to pack. Heh.
Does SF have good art galleries? I have not visited any there, I am embarrassed to say. But I've visited almost every one in Paris... that counts for somethign right?
NO, I know all about the symmetry is less interesting thing. I still like it.
No, not strictly contemporary. I didn't think of being that discriminating.
That's okay, I can read typos. We'll continue this discussion later. Because I really should like actually pack and stuff now!
Have a good weekend!
Perhaps we can have a BAHC tour of SF galleries and sushi bars? I will be out of town for 2.5 weeks starting next week though.
Ok SQT, I will try the sleeping sponge method….10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1……zzzzz
If it does not work, try counting fibonacci numbers: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, zzzzzzz.
Hey not a lot of action here in the bowels of the thread while I was gone. I'm baaa-aaaaaack! Haaaahahahahahaaaa!
Traveling with kids is an excercise in voluntary torture. Or like lining up to pay a lot of money for the torture. You wait an hour in the line, your feet hurt like hell, just so you can fork over a few hundred bucks for, "Um, I'll take...thorns under the fingernails, and a side of Chinese water torture. Make that a double."
But it was nice to get away, and San Diego was far more lovely than I remember it being 11 years ago, and I'm back and hyped up on coffee. I mean, I really, really liked San Diego. It felt remarkably uncrowded compared to LA and SF, and the sun was great and the palm trees were great and the people were laid back and friendly and unpretentious. Definitely a nice place to be. Like LA without the smog and assholes.
I see we have been called out on the main thread for our silliness. WELL THEN. Huh. I don't know what to say. Huh. Maybe we really should knock out the silliness. Maybe we should start an email list for the silliness. Like a Yahoo group or something. If you want me to sign you up for the Blog Burnout Email List, just email me! We will discuss poetry and the meaning of life and why trolls taste like chicken. My email address is on my website, if you click contact Jamie. I don't want to post it here and have it be picked up by yet another spam bot, but it is probably already been picked up by every spambot in existence judging by the flood of spam I get.
Jack, glad your gallery tour went well. So we have not organized the bubble blog gallery tour yet? What the hell is wrong with you people? Gawd I've drunk nothing but coffee today and everything is vibrating. Oh, but I do not know when I will be in SF again, so DON'T organize that tour just yet. I mean, we need to make sure all the important people are there, right? LOL. Sooooo, anyway, I dunno. We may be there for thanksgiving, or Christmas, or New years, or all three, or one of the three, or none of the three. It's a very complicated thing this planning around my husband's freakish schedule. Stay tuned!
I thought it would be good for those way off topic discussions that go on and on like TS Eliot and stuff.
nO, NO, i WAS THINKING OF THAT ALREADY. OH DAMN MY CAPS ARE MESSED UP.
I just don't like polluting the blog. I feel like we should be respectful of the topic and stuff.

Okay, is the Fed trying to prick the housing bubble?

It is not April yet...
What's in April?
And I am not the Fed, but I may be trying to prick the thread bubble. Oh hell I've become one of THEM.
Actually I did none of the driving. I freak my husband out too much when I drive...probably for good reason. But also because he's a back seat driver and it always telling me what to do which gets on my nerves, so I just let him drive.
I wouldn't leave the blog (unless asked to!). I just figured we bubble burnouts need an outlet for chatting, and I really don't like having my idiocy recordered for posterity here on the blog.
What’s in April?
April is the crulest month...
tax tax tax

What thread bubble?
Actually I have a group of writer friends I'm on a Yahoo email loop with, and we do manage to replicate pretty much the rapid fire conversations we have here on the thread, only maybe a wee bit slower. Occasionally Yahoo screws up and sends posts out of order or gets slow, but it doesn't happen too often. Trust me, I manage to waste plenty of time on that email list.
Also if start a Yahoo list, they come with chat rooms, so if we really needed to all be talking at once we could use the chat room.
The posts are kept in an archive, so Peter P could lurk by just reading the posts on the website without answering them, I suppose.
I'm not a threadmaster. I was too dumb to figure out how to register and somehow never got a password.
Oh were you talking about threadmaster on my blog? No, Blogger does not give me access to the email addresses of people who post on my blog unless they are registered users. Or if they do i haven't figured it out.
I saw that moon but didn't think of a connection...could be. it was one of those painted sky nights in the desert tonight, with a moon hanging over it all.
So you had to go legit and participate in the main thread this weekend. Heh.

I suspect the Fed is behind much of the stories about reconsidering mortgage interest deduction. (If they were really serious about it, they would stop deductions on interest for second (and third…) homes. I think this is basically a made up story, trying to inject a little caution into potential homebuyers who have trouble reading the writing on the wall.
