Have you tried Sea Bear in Anacortes? Nice assortment of wild-caught and smoked.
Too far to go. It’s already 20 miles to the nearer TJ’s. Three times that to Sea Bear.
I thought it possible that you’d drive by it on I-5 when la jefa requires your physical presence.
I’m stinky. We’re re-making the waterfall feature in the science park, which means the old one has to come out, so this morning was pulling up the old water barrier from the floor of the falls. Decade old water gets kinda gnarly.
The rest of the day was fun, though. I’m working on an exhibit about vaccines and pathogens. A ping pong ball cannon shoots at the visitor until they build a “vaccine” to place in the spot where pathogens come in. Basically, I shot various ping pong ball sized things around the shop for a couple of hours.
Safe travels wished upon you, metalmouse!
I’m only going to the orifice once a month now. Also, it would be a 30+ mile detour. I get up at 04:00 on my commuting day, and I don’t get home until 18:00 (if I’m lucky) or 18:30. Makes for a long day. So I’ll just have to save the time and the money and get the wild-caught at the supermarket until TJ’s starts carrying it again.
Is 6:35 too early to go to bed?
I feel like today has been mostly unproductive. Unfortunately the resin that I used appears to be too old. All the keychains that I made are still sticky after many attempts to cure them. And I also didn’t think that I’d get my metal bending tool to clamp to the table. Fortunately I figured out a different way to get it done. So tomorrow will be a day making some spoon rings and maybe some keychains.
I also have to take Annie to the vet. I have a feeling that she has cushing’s disease. We had a dog previously that had it. Maybe I’m wrong but we shall see.
MetalMouse, I’m glad that your flights went well!
As always, election worker rules and procedures vary by locality and election. 
For example, tomorrow I don’t have to report until 5am.
I used to have no interest in sharp dressed men. I’ve been a hippie since grade school. I felt they were " plastic", suits. I have since realized dressing well is a form of respect; not appearing as a bum.
It was 75 today here in NE Ohio.
This weekend it gets hot.
My interview was fast, but I think it went well. She is supposed to call me tonight.
I have a different interview tomorrow; also a food place.
Tonight, KillTony!
Some serious weather headed our way. Lighting, rain, hail, possible tornado over the next couple of hours. Yikes. On top of which, we have water seeping into our hall closet from up above. Staff gave us some soaker pads to help sop it up while the maintenance guy investigates the source.
Happy work anniversary doggio!
The state always celebrated our five/ten/twenty year work anniversaries by sending a a small enamel pin (to be worn on our ID, which was worn on a lanyard) through the interoffice mail. It always felt so special!
Fingers crossed!
I really hope you are wrong. Now that I looked it up, I really REALLY hope that you are wrong. Fingers crossed that you are wrong.
Oh good lord, just what you need. I hope all of your stuff is safely ensconced in plastic bins.
My weather app just says “Rainy days ahead”. There has been more flooding up north and the death tole is now five adults and one three year old child. I’m glad the assassin was caught, outraged at the minor crimes he’s been charged with.
I’ve always loved a sharp dressed man. I even know how to tie a bow tie as well as a Windsor knot. Tuxes are hawt.
We go to the USMC ball almost every year and it is a real struggle to not drool on my velvet dress while looking at all the Marines in their dress blues.
Men in leather are also hot.
There have been days when Hubs got geared up for a ride and I demanded that he come back inside and let me take his clothes back off just because I love a man in tight jeans and chaps.
TMI?
Currently I’m watching the cardinal birds feasting on sunflower seeds and thinking about @Seanette. It’s been a while and whenever I see the doves pecking around at the seeds I always think about her.
Gimme a sweetie in comfortable, clean clothes and I’ll call it good. Not that leather isn’t good, too.
As a matter of fact, it is. They sent someone up with absorbing pads that are, I think, intended for incontinent people and dogs, to help soak up any further problems during the night. Looks like the worst of the storm is passing south of us, so no additional weather issues.
Well, TJ’s is part of the Aldi family. Sudden appearances / disappearances are to be expected. I’ve always reasoned that you buy ingredients at Aldi and food at TJ’s.
I hope not. Skritches to Annie and hugs to you.
Wow! That looks close to hurricane.
Up from naptime. Time for the Monday Old Fashioned, cheeseburger, corn and fries.
Stiff competition on which I like better.
I’d hate to see a frog strangler in your neck of the woods.
Just don’t end up like Stephen King in Creepshow.
In the MMP? LOL

It’s a placeholder indictment, just enough to keep him in custody. I fully expect they will file a superseding indictment with many more serious charges once they’ve completed their investigation.
Me too. Although I’d have to look up how to tie a half-Windsor. Mostly I tie bow ties nowadays. I wish I owned a tux.
Nope nope nope. Definitely nope.
Up, caffeinated, and sheveled. Off to heave. I have inflated my Stanley Cup. In response, Spot has attempted to flee the apartment.
