zsquirrelboy: Well, I mean, mu, but that's a copout, isn't it? Ultimately, though, yes: certainly moreso than a cat.

muckefuck: Not sure. For me, it's the season change; my hackles are up.

srd: Effective uses of space are rare in this area. We do what we can.

network: People: salty, hot, wet; sweet, warm, dry. Places: hard, cold, wet. Fiction: hard, warm, dry. possibly salty. Food: umeshiso. saaaaaaaaaaalt.

tcb: Maybe -- Day 69: Wake up, take photo, push limits (don't stop don't stop eat while biking) through barrens of NV, one small single alien on a large desert road, trucks for friends. Or possibly: having no permanent civilization for ten weeks and then landing on the moon at Burning Man. "This is the world? KickASS!"

zahl: Amstelveen is near Schiphol. It's quiet and near the train. I liked it. But why not in the city itself? Also: you got excellent reviews. "Very cool. The coolness factor is high."

zogathon: Live inside someone else's brain chemistry for a day.

I don't believe it! After all that (where "all that" refers to a bunch of annoying annoyances involving the bank not being coordinated enough to get their own papers from point A to point B and then blaming us), after everything was all set to close tomorrow, we get word today that the sellers haven't gotten their own mortgage on this house squared away, yet, and we won't be able to close for up to another week.

I mean, arrrrgh! I'm not even going into the part where they weren't willing to extend the closing date for our bank's snafu.
