I am not a film critic. I watch a movie and I (a) like it or (b) don't like it. it's as simple as that with me.

I would recommend it for some light entertainment. It almost makes me want to go and learn how to cook .... :D

Looking forward to seeing it. I loved watching her when I was a child.

Finally time to go home now. I think it is well after vodka o'clock at this point.

I have to ask why you have such weird hours that you are there so long after everyone has gone? They want you to be there when the backup is done?

The main initial selling point behind the metal water bottles was because they are pba free. I just wish the caps were easier to put on a off as you have to turn the top so many times.

I take it you make great reservations?:D

I really do miss cooking properly as cooking for one pretty much kills that idea w/o a ton of food waste or making too much and I don't seem to believe in left overs.

As part of my diet, I'm getting better at having leftovers remaining for the next day.

What is your average order?

I have been ordering about $1500 a clip and just recently up'd it to 5K to arrive Monday. I was going to order $10K but I was afraid it would get denied.

The most I've ordered is 5k at a time. I had several $2500 orders.

The coins spend well, though - will be using three for a car wash tomorrow.

Actually, you don't want to be the person depositing $43,500 at once.

Officially they provide help desk coverage from 8am to 8pm. The bulk of the staff leave between 5-6pm. There are folks around and I got a couple calls, even tonight, but it is painfully boring at many levels. When even FlyerTalk isn't moving quickly enough to give me something to do I know I'm in trouble.

It has been 172 years. :p

I bought a lime on the way home and had a very generous pour of vodka, along with the leftovers of my Palm excursion from the other night. I'm pretty sated at this point. I also managed to figure out the OW search functionality during dinner so I'm very close to having that included in the search tool. That will give me the three major alliances, Galileo and Worldspan inventory, Amadeus timetables and Travelocity and some Russian fare engine. I'm pretty happy with that.

Funny how watching food shows does that. On Monday's my usual routine is to watch food network at night, two hours of Unwrapped and Diner's, Drive-ins, & Dives and my stomach is growling the whole time.
