I love sauerkraut- as long as it's real, brined sauerkraut and not that shitty vinegar... um... shit. And yes, I have eaten pretty much a plate of it, and keep it in my fridge at all times, near the pickles & kim-chee.

The closest I come to a fast food sandwich in Banh Mi from Saigon Sandwich in SF: yes, I wipe the drippings on my pants if needed.

I used to but I think now the eye strain would be to much.

I've actually never had a pedicure 'cause I'm too thrifty. I do like to keep the toes nice & polished, though. Usually a Caribbean blue.

I don't know about elaborate but every now and then I indulge in a roast beef/turkey/swiss cheese, mayo, salt and pepper without any of those vegetables that have overtaken my life but keep that under your hat. That said, thin cucumber slices are awesome on a sandwich.

Relieved? Not at all, I think you are a witty, funny lady...and not miffed either. I love self-depracating humor (not sure if that is the proper phrase or not, so if it's not please don't take offense) You are who You are, and You my dear are da bomb!

Working in a club as a photographer- definitely an opportunity for liver damage.

I don't really like it, but I feel I should like it as it has all sorts of sneaky values that contrast? invert? subvert? with the culture at large. But yesterday as I was tooling along I saw a young girl and her mother, the daughter all in pink shiny fabric a head of me, and I was really admiring the whole get up until I past them (thinking of telling the daughter how awesome her cape and leggings were) and I saw there was a grey bat applicade to her chest. There was a whole thought process of "oh. she's batgirl. Batgirl's pink? I guess it's now "Batgirl: No, not in the least butch."
So, I guess that Hallowe'en is just another consumer holiday in which cash is exchanged for actual participation and craft skills. What. Ever.

TPBM already knew that Batgirl was pink.
