so no-show guy from this past weekend texts just now to say he didn't realize I was interested... b/c that explains inviting me for a drink and then not replying to my texts for two days, right?

it's quite possible I have an unreasonably strong celebrity crush on Luke Evans. actually, it's most probable. or whatever is the closest you can get to being true without admitting it.
There's a scene from an early 90s movie that captures my feelings on the subject perfectly, but I have to look it up.

found it: http://www.imdb.com/title.... it's from 2004, not early 90s. anyway, it's not much of a film, not terrible, just not great, but there's this sub-plot about why the nurse he has a one-night-stand with agrees to help him once he's been exposed as a fugitive bank robber, and at one point while she's tending to a bullet wound and hiding him from the local police he asks her and she says "because you did my dishes." TRUEST LINE OF A MOVIE EVER! The film is worth seeing for that alone.

On the topic of the Universe sending me the occasional reminder that my approach to managing relationships with open and honest communication, though often difficult, is truly the only way worth doing it (despite recent evidence to the contrary): a guy I dated shortly after I moved here a couple years ago just invited me to his wedding.
The bamboo I knew was in there b/c I had to look up how to cook that. Who expects a bamboo shoot in their grocery delivery? Not me. The other stuff was most likely bok-choy, poblano pepper, and brocolli rabe (?) based on the vague descriptions on the box and some image matching. Added some almost rotten green beans from last week's delivery with ever-present onion and garlic. Again, results were not terrible.

tonight's challenge is what to do with more sweet potatoes than a girl could ever hope to consume in a week.

Biking map site BikeScore has released a new ranking of the country’s best cities for biking, accounting for factors like bike lanes, hilliness, route options, and number of commuters... But the truth about biking in the U.S. and Canada is more complicated than that headline suggests: there are some really nice places to bike, and some, well, are best approached with caution. A new expanded ranking of bikeability from biking map service BikeScore in U.S. cities gives a sense of the contrasts. At the top are cities like Cambridge, Massachusetts, Davis and Berkeley, California, and Boulder, Colorado--all rated "very bikeable" (or in Cambridge’s case, as a "biker’s paradise"). Then, at the bottom, you have Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Chattanooga and Nashville-Davidson, Tennessee, and Birmingham, Alabama--all rated, gently, as "somewhat bikeable."
