We decided to camp at windmill point rock quarry for (e:Terry)'s birthday. I wish everyone could have come. I swam for like 3 hours straight.

And your allergies peaked after this marathon swim session? You have to wonder what was in that water...

Dragonfruit
Category: food
Finally got some dragonfruit in Canada. They are so beautiful and the inside resembled kiwi in consistency but is not as flavorful. They taste kind of like a slightly acidic cucumber.

The allergy attack started two days before. I was not allergic to this fruit.
tinypliny - 08/30/11 19:18
Hmm.. how many of these did you have? Is this the first time you are having these fruits? How long after having this fruit did your allergies start and peak? Was there any itchiness when you were eating it? New foods should always raise flags.

Wait I thought they where a fruit and kinda tasted like that... Well that being said a fruit and its juice don't taste the same like apples great apple juice um not so much now apple cider :).... Then again I have only had drinks that are supposed to taste like dragon fruit or flavored with it.... All though the one had a dragon I think on the bottle and I thought they where from the Orient so maybe those and these are different?

I love having this haircut. I think it is my favorite. I just can't stand having hair anymore.

Yikes. You do look scary. I would have second thoughts about hanging out with the person in the 1st pic. Is that really you? :)
metalpeter - 08/27/11 14:17
If my facial hair grew like that I would love that hair cut....But I would keep the top long and then dye it all jet black but hey that is just me....1st pix you look ready to kill...

It only makes sense that whoever bought the land did somehting with it, Heck the other end of the Right of Way became a Target in North Buffalo.

I tried out their side of fried okra... not sure I liked it too much. It was floating in oil and made me slightly nauseous. But then, I don't know what I was expecting with the word "fried" right before okra. I guess I was hoping it wouldn't be breaded but unfortunately it was. I was also not thrilled with the smell of oil. They don't use peanut oil for frying - the only oil I would ever consider for deep frying.

Partway through shaving my head...

I absolutely love that first comment, Tiny.

This is hair hypocrisy (H-squared!) especially after your comments about how I should keep my hideous hurricane of hair. (H-cubed!)
tinypliny - 08/27/11 00:01
I think that is the perception of terrorists. Most "terrorists" wear suits and walk about openly extorting money and people don't even realize it.
