Heh. When I was in Hong Kong for a bit, I had to suffer one of the
really noisy window air cons. This was like almost 10 years ago now.
Noisy as hell, but you would be soaked if you didn't cool and
dehumidify. Then there was getting to sleep...

Mmmm Rudy's.

Hope you're feeling better Amy.

This talk of chocolate makes me want to head down to Fiesta and buy
some Cadbury's... :-)

The rain was quite amusing... I was cursing being at the office this
morning, and they were watering the grass at 11:30, just as it was
starting to get really warm. It started raining, what, 30 - 45 minutes
later... Tsk.

Amusingly enough, I was rear ended on the way back from the office. I
stopped for beer at Grapevine. Mmm Warsteiner, and was stationary at
the lights on Anderson / Spicewood. I was looking in my rearview at a
cute girl in a smallish white car that had stopped behind me. She
rolled forward a little... Then she rolled forward some more. *crunch*
I rolled forward and she sort of waved. It was so light it wasn't
possible for her to have damaged my car.

I am kicking myself for not demanding her phone number though.

Ho Hum
