Roomie just fell asleep exhausted and I hear my neighbors' kids screaming like monkeys that have been stomped on, while I'm making enchiladas. I have fantasies of throwing stuff out the window at them to shut them up. i did have a nice time hanging out with several of my great friends last night.

Throw stuff at them! Serve the little bastards right! (Can you tell I live on the seventh floor so I can't throw stuff at anybody?)

believe me, I would if I could guarantee that I wouldn't get caught.

You have nice friends...

Send over some enchiladas to me, will you? ;)

[chocolate-frapp.livejournal.com]

come visit me in California sometime and I'll make them for you. :)

I'd like to...but I have to save some money first! :(

Throw water, that's what my mother used to do. Doesn't harm and you can always claim you hadn't seen them.
I still don't know how my children weren't murdered by the neighbors in their noisier years. Or, for that matter, by me.
I second the request for enchiladas. Don't make too rash promises since, if I regain my sanity, I might very well show up at MSRI in the next couple of years.

I don't consider it too rash a promise. I would love to meet you IRL. I love playing tour guide. I could take you to the cool places in the San Fran area that we locals know about that tourists usually don't see.

Sounds good. And I could take you to one of the places only tourists go to (Chez Panisse, I eat there at least once every time I'm in Berkeley). Now I have a serious incentive to start working again.

wow! that's very generous of you, that place is EXPENSIVE $$$

It's your country that pays me when I'm there, so it would be nice for me to share some of the money with an actual US taxpayer.
Also, my career and my life changed during a conference in California many years ago. I have a soft spot in my heart for the UC system.

I live in a part of Oakland that is a very short drive from the UC campus.
