also, if you get hot pink pants, i will find an excuse to fly to you so we can wear crazy hot pink pants together and possibly drink bourbon. (if you are so inclined.)

I just got lost in a little reverie (between episodes of Smash, naturally) where I was serenading holly by pouring out my heart to her in a version of "Not Over You" by Gavin DeGraw. LIKE MY LIFE DEPENDED ON IT. That's my boo. :)
I confess to hoping for you the same thing any woman of my age wants for a younger, single person: a hot, meaningful relationship with a hedge-fund manager or a neurosurgeon. ;-)

All the songs I like and would use, I think I'd just walk out and dance the whole time. Cause y'all know I'm a fan of the impromptu dance party.
- Derrick
Heh. I once set up a soundtrack for my old softball team. I had everyone pick a song and I would take 15 sec out of it to make a theme song for when they walk up to the plate.
- Rodfather
I like Vancouver's Carnival Band's cover of "Cissy Strut". The surdo drum gives it an incredible propulsive kick. (30 second sample here: http://www.rhapsody.com/artist... )
- Andrew C (✓)
wait, can I change mine? Yakkety Sax probably fits me better, even though it doesn't have the coolness.
- Joe "Funkasaurus" Pierce
For some reason, the first song that came to mind when I pictured this was 'Little Red Corvette'. I just learned something about myself. Haha.

Bad Body Double by Imogen Heap or Gold to Me by Ben Harper

+1 million to Mandy; that song is the ringtone I use for my BFF in Chicago. As for me, it would be the Mark Ronson/Daptone Horns cover of "God Put a Smile upon Your Face."
- Corinne L
Either "The Seeker" by The Who or "Fat Bottomed Girls" by Queen.

I'm surprised that nobody went with Rocky's theme, Eye of the Tiger or Shaft's theme song, but I'm gonna go with Santana's "Oye Como Va"
- CarlC, spelling expert
ok, i lied. it's She Likes Hair Bands by BW. (can i have both?)
- holly #ravingfangirl
Pink Floyd's San Tropez...and I would come out skipping to it. (and those that know me well and have known me for awhile would get a real laugh out of it, and wonder where the flying watermelons are.)

New Chicken & Waffle, Sriracha-Flavored Lay's Potato Chips Allegedly Spotted in the Wild - http://gawker.com/5982611...
i'd try them! when we went to the herr's factory near philly this year we got to taste their new/experimental flavors. pickle flavor was a favorite.

I wish I had stumbled across these options before today. That being said, they look like great things to cook up and freeze and have in the icebox; my decision to embrace veganism is not just about going without animal-based foods, and eating a more plant-based diet, but also to eat less processed food, even if it is vegan. That being said, I’m baking up a mess of hot wings for the game today. #notveganyet

Is this your natural habitat, or don't you always look like that? Sorry, was going with the rhyme, I'm afraid its a habit of mine :-)

Yay, good luck! I was vegan for three years and vegetarian for another three. It's an interesting journey for sure. :)
- Hookuh Tinypants
I can give you a list of vegan products to avoid, by the way. :) The number one item being TUNO. Dear lord it was less traumatizing making my own fake tuna from tofu, nutritional yeast, and seaweed flakes...
- Hookuh Tinypants
(Nutritional yeast is your best friend for that vegan cheese flavor - chickpeas tossed in nutritional yeast and roasted in the oven are an amazing snack)
- Hookuh Tinypants
Good luck and best wishes for your health! People who love to cook - like you - sure have less problems with this move. Enjoy all the experiments! (I'm vegetarian since my teenage years, couldn't go without cheese, but I miss nothing else.)
- esther
That is awesome, good luck! (I was going to say, "but ... Cochon ... sadface" but I decided to be more supportive. Seriously, I have thought about doing this also for my health.)
- Laura Norvig
Rock on, D. Good luck, and have fun with it! Challenges like this are awesome learning experiences.
- Jenica
Is anyone else mildly stoked over the prospect of D sharing some of his kickass vegan creations with us? :) Maybe I need to get out more...

It's been a really long time since I've seen a dentist and thank the stars for the advances in technology that made the trip pretty effortless. I hope that after my face returns to normal, that any residual pain is fleeting.
- Derrick
I recently narrowly escaped a root canal and got away with a filling instead (problem tooth since I was a kid). I too was impressed by the relative quickness and low-level discomfort of the process, despite the fact that lots of things seemed to be coming and going throughout. Wishing you a speedy recovery! Also, ibuprofen.
- t-ra: not givin up
I have found myself repeating loving-kindness phrases during root canal. keeps the mind busy.
- $tephanie•Cog$ciLibrarian
It's a little tender now that the novocaine's worn off, but certainly much better than the pain I can't believe I've been in for the past month. And yes, I did find myself meditating while I was under the drill.
- Derrick
Most common dental procedures (fillings, crowns, root canals) are relatively painless these days -- more annoying than anything else. Ask for steroids (prednisone) to reduce swelling, or at the very least stock up on ibuprofen.
- Tudor Bosman
It'll definitely be sore/tender for a day or so (jaw, too, obviously from staying open so long!) but you'll be much happier by comparison. <3

Thanks, y'all. Tis a little tender but nothing that some ibuprofen won't take care of. Even though he gave me some Vicodin.
- Derrick
Aw, I just saw this. I'm glad they gave you the good drugs in case you need them. Take care!
- Katy S
I think of all the dental procedure's I've had, and there have been several, this was the most painless and easy going. Glad to have such a great dentist.
- Derrick
Oh, I love Raisin in the Sun. I saw it on PBS when I was in high school and had to run right out and get a copy of the play to read.
- Katy S
I hadn't read it until I was in film school where we started with plays and A Raisin in the Sun hit me with like a ton of bricks. So powerful, and even more so that it resonated and felt so relevant in today's time as it did when originally written, published, and performed.
