We just had a water main break at work. Water to the whole building is shut down. And right on cue I felt the rumbling down below. I've been tip-toeing around. I hope I don't have to post in the "Have you shat yourself" thread.

Just the first. (Both, but usually keystone) I have also taken to drinking oAk leaf wine or whatever it is. $2.97 per bottle at wal mart. The merlot over ice is good.

Probably worse than mixing pappy with coke and setting a baby on fire at the same time.

Abe would love the wine/beer place I go to. They have one of those automat things where you can buy wine $2 at a time.

1. Nowhere near top 3.
2. It's three dollars. I could mix it with Sweet N Low and snort it and it wouldn't be "wrong".

I find Amy Adams sexier than Jennifer Lawrence. 
I mean. I find them both incredibly sexy.

Ooooo, good one. Sandy was kind of yucky. I mean, Amy Adams is a beautiful woman and a very good actress, but weirdly miscast here. Jennifer Lawrence could have pulled it off so much better.

I hate when a typo of mine gets quoted.
So, I also got a job offer today. A friend from law school has a big real estate company, and wants to bring me aboard. I have mixed emotions because I was hoping to get something on my own maybe doing something outside of real estate. This would be better than a law firm though. Compensation is decent, not spectacular, but more than I make now. I'd have to move, but that's been the plan for a while. There's a decent amount of travel too, which I wouldn't mind in general as I'd like to see some new places (new baby will either change my attitude, or I will need the break). Just timing will devastate my mom (who gave us the cold shoulder for a while after I made my intentions known this summer), and I have the preggo and unknown kidney situation. The other worry of course is always how working with/for great friends could impact the relationship. He actually hired another friend/classmate a few years ago, and I will be talking to him shortly. They seem to have not been impacted, but every person/situation is different. I'd also hate to not take it and offend my friend, who really gave them the hard sell on me. It could be really cool though, as he is expanding the company and wants me next to him doing it. I sent out some resumes this week to others; two firms, but one large company that would also be awesome to work for. Who knows if A) I will hear ANYthing from them, or B) if i'd get even an interview.
My head is spinning.

3 buck chuck at Trader Joe's has to be better.So wine that is actually cheaper than boone's farm... impressive!

I would go on a week-long, cross-country road trip with MOP and Timschochet just to beat off over a moist shoe-tree once owned by Jennifer Lawrence's step-uncle.

Oh she looked great, and she's probably one of my favorite actresses. Mr. krista and I both just couldn't buy her in the role in terms of the sexiness or really anything else. It's a minor quibble, though; enjoyed the movie a lot. That guy who played Carmine Polito--forgot his name but he's in lots of stuff--was phenomenal.

Let's be clear. Nothing is worse than the Pappy and Coke move.Probably worse than mixing pappy with coke and setting a baby on fire at the same time.

Just found out that the mother of my godchild got her results back and she has stage 2 breast cancer.
32 years old. 6 month old son. No history within the immediate family.
So, yet again, #### you cancer.

this reminds me of a girl i used to work with.Makes me miss the days when it was 2 buck chuck3 buck chuck at Trader Joe's has to be better.So wine that is actually cheaper than boone's farm... impressive!
she was trying to be all cool and buddy-buddy with the managers and decided that she was going to start her own wine collection because that's what all of them had. she went out and bought ~100 bottles and was talking about it non-stop so everyone would know how in to wine she was. Every single bottle was a version of 2 buck chuck
100 bottles of that swill. I can't even imagine how many bags of ice you'd need to drink all that with
I still don't know who actually mixed the Pappy with Coke.

This sounds like a great opportunity. Very excited for you! It might not be your ideal but it has many advantages from what you've described. Unless your other friend says your friend is a complete ##### to work for, can't see any reasons not to take it! You deserve to have something great like this after having a few struggles in other areas lately.I hate when a typo of mine gets quoted.

It's all coming together, my friend. New baby, new job, opportunity to move where you want to be...I'm so happy for you!

That's the one! Awesome actor. Great in The Town.
TPW for your friend. Remember, though, that breast cancer has one of the highest cure rates when found early, which Stage 2 is. She might not even have to have surgery. While no one should have to go through that, this should be very treatable and curable!
ETA: For some reason I typed Stage 2 but thought Stage 1. Yeah, she's going to have to have surgery but still has very good odds of getting to cancer-free.
ETA2: When I say surgery I mean a lumpectomy. She probably won't need a mastectomy.
ETA2.5: Lots of breast cancer in my family so I've dealt with these a lot.

I love lists like this. Settle down, Chip. You're a blogger/mag writer not James Bond.
