Out of the Blue

Happy National Hot Fudge Sundae Day, which falls on this day every year (seems like it should always fall on a Sunday). I think the only other question about this is why it isn't International Hot Fudge Sundae Day, as this seems to be an easy cause to endorse. I'm going to have my secretary get the U.N. on the phone and straighten this out.

Yup.

Not that I can particularly bitch - I have color-shifting LEDs all over my apartment. Primarily used to create ambient lighting behind my TV, but I have some other places as well for mood lighting.

What products are you using? Trying to find something other than rope lights. I currently have white rope lights above my cabinets in my kitchen to give a nice soft lighting look at night.

May be too much of a rope for you, but it works well for my purposes.

I can't recall the last time I had a hot fudge sundae. Must have been going on nigh on over 20 years now.

I had one last year, but prior to that it was also many-a-year since I had one. I recall thinking "dang, I haven't had one in ages."

I had a nice milk shake a couple of times a year but sundaes are a rarity.

Yes, but at least that's for you and its your taste in your own private place, Beamer. It's different when all these so called artists and architects want to foist their whims on everyone else. Perfect example I fucking hate the colour purple and its variants. If I had to look at that goddamned purple bridge every night I'd go on a shooting spree or blow it up. Not to mention it's a frivilous waste of tax dollars. We definitely need less light-pollution not more. Probably just one more reason I want to move to the country.

I've not had one in forever, either. I'm hooked on chocolate toffee ice cream. Brownie batter if they're out of CT.
