Edit: Ah, scratch that previous message. Called Visa via the 800 number and my account did get compromised. Getting a new card. They had already shut the card down and were bouncing the fraud charges.

Did our kitchen in the condo in grays and blue tones. I picked out a light gray for the walls that I thought looked good with the counters and back splash.

But it totally looks like blue on the walls. It probably doesn't help that the pendant lights have cobalt blue glass shades so it tints the lighting from that.
 
I might have to make an own thread for this but after meeting a lot of people around the country, I have one question. Why does everyone hate Dallas so much? Seriously, every time I mention I live here I get a "Oh, sorry to hear that" expression. I don't think I have ever seen more disdain for a city outside of maybe LA.

Maybe @GTO has the answers since he's been here longer.

Nope. Dallas is...okay. I hate Houston. :)
 
Whoa! Pickup lines for chemists, or perhaps more appropriately geologists. I know what you're talking about.

Of course, what if she comes over during the day and then leaves before evening?
In AP Bio our teacher gave us extra credit if we wrote cell and dna themed valentine's day cards, and I think as long as they were accurate, there were very few limits. A really good one I remember was something like "Hey babe, I'd love for you to be DNA Helicase so you'd unzip my genes."

And @Bu4ISU, I had to look that up, but it was really good

My sister was diagnosed with it a couple years ago. She drinks lactose free milk but hasn't cut out dairy.
I had an upset stomach (I'll just keep it at that) for like a week, and I cut out dairy and I felt much better. I drank 4 glasses of milk today just to see if it had an actual affect. My stomach wants to roll over and die right now.

Yep, sounds like my sister before she went to the doctor. Was having a lot of acid reflux, but if she cut out dairy she was fine.

I have laryngitis, so talking on the phone all day at work is pretty awesome.
So were people thinking they were speaking with Clint Eastwood? I once had a trial as a prosecutor where I felt like that was pretty much the case--but the show must go on.
 
GE reveal lightbulbs are my new fave thing. They have saved the paint color. Also, going from 950 lumens to 550 deeeeeeefinitely helped with the neon effect. And slightly cooler lightbulb allowed the warmth in the color to come back out.

No repainting. Until I see it in daylight again, haha. But seriously, I need to get a side by side of the different light bulbs.
