(e:tinypliny), it was so nice to see you this morning! Such a warm bright treat on a cold windy day. I wish I was going to keep taking that bus this semester!


I visited this foyer recently and wanted to share with (e:matthew)! I wish I had taken a couple more shots to show the detailing.

Now this is some Buffalove (seen outside Cafe 59 1/12):

The Inauguration Ale at Village Beer Merchant was $25.99/growler. Yikes! The guy said it was really good and that he really couldn't charge his usual markup for it - it would have been about $36.

This possum has been terrorizing my buddies Jill & Kelly at the office. They're afraid of it. Meanwhile, Jill's husband has been feeding it cat food. (more about oppossums: )

Is it 406 Linwood? What is it being used as, some kind of office space?
heidi - 02/04/09 21:22
The foyer is actually on Linwood. I think I'll keep taking pix of it to taunt you! :-)

OMG! i love that foyer! i bet it's all quarter sawn oak. I'm guessing 1880's - 1890's? I must tell you, the more you get to know me the more you'll learn; never, EVER, show me a foyer nicer than mine! I might have to burn it down!! LOL. It's truly beautiful. Is it in Buffalo or Penn?

Last week at their 1-year anniversary party Village Beer Merchant had Ommegang there and I sampled their Obamagang. I have to say - it isn't worth $26 per growler. I'm not sure it is worth $15 per growler... I thought it was fairly average.

It was wonderful to see you as well. I think I totally forgot about the cold once I started talking to you! I didn't realize that my hair was actually wet and had frozen to icicles by the time I made it to the class!! Talk about the power of conversations. :D

tonight?
Anyone wanna hang out tonight? I'm here in Buffalo but I don't have enough schoolwork to keep me occupied.
theli - 01/19/09 12:10
Cool.
james - 01/19/09 12:08
If I can convince a crowd of people to play I will invite you along for zombie near-fun.
theli - 01/19/09 11:57
Ahh. Don't think I've played that one yet.
james - 01/19/09 11:51
"Zombies!!!" by Twilight Creations. They also made an HP Lovecraft game.
theli - 01/19/09 11:39
Nice. There are some pretty good zombie boardgames out there. Which one did you play?
james - 01/18/09 15:17
It was fun hanging out heidi. Next time I promise we wont play that zombie game. Rather, I will use the zombie pieces to mod Risk. Can you escape the growing zombie pandemic to Australia?
heidi - 01/18/09 11:47
I won the complicated Zombie game! (Only because I had a special card that let me jump ahead of everyone else.)

Thanks for inviting me, (e:drew) & (e:janelle)! (e:jim) & (e:james) - always a pleasure!

Others - feel free to invite me to hang out sometime. I'm often alone more than what's good for me.

jim - 01/18/09 09:59
We also played a very complicated zombie game, that I did not win.
jim - 01/18/09 09:58
Heidi went with us to Drew and Janelle's where I kicked everyone's ass at scrabble! Wahoo! Go me!
vincent - 01/18/09 01:33
I'm sorry I just saw this now as well. I have been chilling at home due to the snowfall.

paul - 01/18/09 01:06
Sorry I just saw this now ;(
imk2 - 01/17/09 17:58
sorry, too cold to move.

The Dead in Buffalo
Category: music
The Dead (remaining members of the Grateful Dead) will be playing at the HSBC arena 4/21... anyone else going?



Sunshine, daydreams!
tinypliny - 01/13/09 22:22
I so expected a reference to Forest Lawn. Haha

Puddle of poodles, music
Category: pets

Before I left Tioga County yesterday, A and I visited our friends Kell & Lori who happen to have two of Nisha's siblings (not littermates), Cooper and Buster Brown. Everyone needs more poodles.


image

Nisha and Buster Brown very similar in coloring (he's a couple shades lighter), size and shape.

(Nisha needs a haircut bad!)

(Just so it's clear that I do things other than take pix of my pets... )

A's new band had a gig New Years Eve. It was the first time I had heard them play out and I was tickled by what they've accomplished since I left in August.

A and his sister

Mike the drummer, Kell (poodle owner referenced above), and Adrian.

I'm back in Buffalo for a while... *phew* having two places that are "home" can be rough!
tinypliny - 01/13/09 15:27
They are all so cute! :)
