I really enjoy baseball

America's pasttime! Hot dogs, beer, sunshine, the crack of the bat... and sulking.



And boob grabbing in front of God and everybody... and Don Orsillo and Jerry Remy. I sure do miss those two!



Thanks to Buzzfeed for the first video, and Pete, of course, for the latter. PLAY BALL!!!

It's seriously so hot!

If I am outside this week, and not in a pool, this is a pretty good summation of what I feel like:



I had to shut my office door and mop myself with paper towels when I got in this morning. My dear friend Dave said he had to go stand for 10 minutes in his lab's walk in fridge. Dave is a scientist who works with monkey rectums... but that's a story for another post.

For Sydney

Syd and I had a great summer weekend together. Wine on her porch, popcorn and a movie (note: Horrible Bosses sucks, don't bother seeing it), and two trips to our new favorite place - the community pool! It's hard to beat swimming and sunshine with your bestie... even if it does result in a sunburn. As a thank you to her, I present THIS:



YAY SYD AND AMELIA! AND SLOTHS!

It's hard to beat a long weekend

I just got the marvelous news that the office is closing at 3pm on Friday! Plus we are closed on Monday for the Fourth of July (one of my very fave holidays), AND I am taking off Tuesday to spend some time with Mr. Whams. I'm going to celebrate by finding a nice park and enjoying some sunshine, just like this sweet doggie:


Here are 24 more doggies taking some time for a nice swing.

Anyone have a CSA share?

Vegetables, not Confederates. I'm thinking of joining one for the summer. It would be so nice to have tons of...


Wait, what? Oh no, I don't want that. I shall stick to the grocery store.
