Things Bob likes
Raw Fish and Cold Rice.
Sushi sounds so unappealing, but I love it so much. After the gym last night we went for Sushi. Last night the Sushi was extra, extra good (cheap too!).
Beer and People singing from their diaries
There is a tiny pub between sushi and home. It always has live music (and no cover). Mr Bob and I stopped in after sushi and had a beer and listened to a few sets from a singer/songwriter.
Being a DAW
One of the people in my lab helped out with a project for another lab, which was then featured on the university home page because it made a cool picture. I am a DAW by association.
Oddly enough, being down here
As most of you know, I'm Canadian and rather Canadian. I didn't want to come down to the States, but the best research in the world is here, so we're down here for a another year or so. I've really started to love where I live. There are little shops all around, everything is in walking distance, poker is fun, my job is great....sigh...I am NOT looking forward to the next job search aka "what I will do with the rest of my life"
K, name 4 things you like and one thing to be blown up by bob!
Edit to add:
I forgot my happy gym update. I benched 95 lbs, which is extra cool because it means I got to use the grown-up weights for the first time. (The bar is 45 lb, so 95 means I add two 25 lb weights)
You can ask about the whole ab thing, but it doesn't mean I have to answer.

Thing to be blown up: Cold weather.
DH liked his experience with sushi that he wants to try more but doesn't know what to get. So, the other night I bought him some california roll suchi. I even liked it. I've tried sushi before in a restaurant but wasn't crazy about it. I suppose I like the mild stuff.
Your area sounds like Ottawa. I love the area my BIL lives in Ottawa because you don't need to drive anywhere. Lots of shops around. I want to retire there.
Being Canadian, DH & I don't intend to spend the rest of our lives here in the States. However, the money is so much better than if we stayed in Quebec so we will just stick it out as long as possible, then retire to Canada.
I'll come back with my four things in a bit.
#1: Waking up to sunshine
#2: Mashed potatoes
#3: All things chocolate
#4: Going a week without having to clean up any messes on the carpets
Thing to be blown up by Bob: People who sneak into driving lanes at the last 2nd.
Oh Nookie you still go on your carpets? Why don't you put down paper or buy the extra absorbant Depends?
Oh Grats to Iggy!
Yeah! Science!
but, um, I was going to mention how much I was enjoying this mild Boston weather compared to Calgary.
The weather over the last couple days has been very nice, but this weekend is supposed to be cooooold and I was not excited to see snow.
I was worried about the Science paper and am much happier now. They had to send it to a fourth reviewer for a statistical review because someone questioned our statistics (scary because I did the fancy pants statistics). We just found out that the question was "Do you think they used enough animals?" so all is good.
Congrats to Iggy!
Yay Iggy.
Boo z'baby *WHACK*
Iggy has fancy pants?
Are the cheeks cut out and saran wrap replaces the fabric a la So Fine
oh eeek on Statistic and yeah on acceptance.
Enjoy your trip this weekend and we all be waiting for an update.
ZOMBS!
I surprised someone trying to park in the pregnant-lady-and-baby-carrying spot. She was well over forty and Not Pregnant or accompanied by little child. She did look a little shamefaced when I walked past her carrying the carseat.
Not shamefaced enough, though, because I came across her cart blocking the entry to an aisle about ten minutes later. Yeesh. So, Bob, go ahead and blow her up.
Things I like:
1. Sleep
2. Sushi
3. Toddler hugs and baby smiles
4. Bob coming to visit in March
I promise to PM you soon. I have lost your email address.
PM sent.
I also add a *scoff* to all the cold-weather complainers.
Things I like:
1. My hard working, irrepressible husband.
2. Working part time from home.
3. Cheetos.
4. Cold weather. Hah! to all you weather wimps.
Someone to blow up: Special Services director of my son's school.
Also? You can blow up sushi--all of it. Blecccch!
Woo Hoo on getting into Science, Iggy. You're in the big time now!!!
1. I'll second the sushi thing.
2. Cosmopolitans
3. Vacations
4. Fireplaces
Blow up request: My desk, please.
