  1. I’m thinking about chili for the game tomorrow. I want to do a venison/beef chili. I’ve never used rehydrated chiles, and honestly, they are a bitch to find up here.
  2. I would grab a yello cab. Yellow cab to Manhattan is something like $75 not including a tip. Which terminal? This is important as there is construction, and ubers and other cars are restricted due to the construction. Terminal 8 (American and BA) still is at the terminal, but some of the others are bussed to a common area.
  3. It is on my list. My list keeps getting longer. Sigh.
  4. I have to have caffeine throughout the work day to function. I got about 6 hours of sleep last night, so relatively good for me.
  5. LOL. The whole family is rotten to the core.
  6. Le Rock in Rockefeller. You can get a 5 pm res and let them know you have a show at 7. The theater is 2.5 blocks away. Gallaghers is on 52nd and Broadway. It’s a short walk to the theater on 49th and Broadway. Kochi at 10th and 46th, again, get the earliest res and tell them you have a show. It’s a short walk to the theater.
  7. Already did this. Fuck Elmo.
  8. 1935 Labor Day Hurricane And these 42 have reached Category 5. Trump is an idiot. Water is wet. Here are the names of the estimated 42 tropical cyclones that have reached Category 5 intensity since 1924: "Cuba" - 1924 "San Felipe II Okeechobee" - 1928 "Bahamas" - 1932 "Cuba" - 1932 "Cuba-Brownsville" - 1933 "Tampico" - 1933 "Labor Day" - 1935 "New England" - 1938 "Great Atlantic" - 1944 Carol - 1953 Janet - 1955 Esther - 1961 Hattie - 1961 Inez - 1966 Beulah - 1967 Camille - 1969 Edith - 1971 Anita - 1977 David - 1979 Allen - 1980 Gilbert - 1988 Hugo - 1989 Andrew - 1992 Mitch - 1998 Isabel - 2003 Ivan - 2004 Emily - 2005 Katrina - 2005 Rita - 2005 Wilma - 2005 Dean - 2007 Felix - 2007 Matthew - 2016 Irma - 2017 Maria - 2017 Michael - 2018 Dorian - 2019 Lorenzo - 2019 Ian - 2022 Lee - 2023 Beryl - 2024 Milton - 2024
  9. I got both of mine on Saturday. This is now the third double I have gotten. Just each arm is sore. Nothing else. I love my Oura. It is depressing how little I sleep though.
  10. Sex isn't the only way to get pregnant. I wouldn't be shocked if a lot of those are through artificial means.
  11. No matter how much money Elmo has, he is completely repellent to the female of the species.
  12. Michigan losing not great. Sigh.
  13. Arky kicker pulls his groin on the miss. Lol.
  14. The announcers for the aggy game... No one is talking about aggy (talking about to win the SEC)... Didn't we all know Missouri was WAY overrated?
  15. Just here to say how sad this whole situation is, and I completely feel for the folks who thought they would be ok as they are far enough inland or far away from the storm's landfall (see Harvey). Chimney Rock State Park is where these scenes from Last of the Mohicans were filmed.
  16. Onto less serious topics, I ordered the Thom Browne scarf and some friendship bracelets back on September 16 and still do not have either. Sigh.
  17. I think you have actually met my folks at a Houston event or another. I know. And no offense taken. I wrestle with it myself. I have gotten grief on here for refusing to step foot in Texas until I have no choice (work related), but the shit Republicans have done in Texas and in other states is personal for me and for a lot of other women and members of the LGBTQ+ community.
  18. Me too. I saw the headline, and was about to send it off to my Vietnam Vet father (who voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020, though to be fair to my dad, he is voting for the R, not the guy behind it (never voted Dem, not even 1963)). I am working on him and my mom to either hold their noses and vote for Kamala (I would put that at a 5% chance) or to stay home (45% chance at the moment). I do not have a lot of hope, and if they vote for Trump, that will irrevocably damage my relationship with them. For those that think this is a hyperbole, Trump hates women and was totally cool taking away our right to bodily autonomy. It is shocking to me that my dad, who told me growing up that I could be anyone I wanted to be, would vote for a misogynist like Trump, who is totally cool with relegating women to the same place they are in enlightened places like Afghanistan under the Taliban or Saudi Arabia (i.e. as little more than property).
  19. A Vietnam Vet gave him his. https://nypost.com/2024/10/05/us-news/vietnam-war-veteran-gives-trump-his-purple-heart-for-taking-bullet-in-butler-you-got-guts/
  20. https://www.mlleshetravels.com/ The places I would like to go back to, or do go back to when I can are: MoSuke Restaurant AMALIA Montee (Still) Le Chateaubriand I have writeups on MoSuke and Montee on that website I linked.
