The vanilla is still sold in a glass pharmaceutical bottle tucked inside a box whose fonts and design haven’t changed since the 1950s. “We don’t know how we could change or improve that. It survives the generations,” Crim says. Even the machine that builds and closes the boxes dates back to the 1950s. “We’re scared to change it.

I’ve never bought any other but Adams’ vanilla extract… even though it’s not made in Austin any more.

How lovely to be a woman

On my walk late this morning, I got honked at by a truck on Oltorf. Part of me thought, well, that never happened when I walked down Shoal Creek, and part of me thought, am I supposed to be flattered?

Then I wanted to flip them off, but my thoughts caused me to pause too late to react. Can’t I just walk home from the library in my new neighborhood in daylight without having to be on the receiving end of some ridiculously quick appraisal/judgement of my appearance/level of attractiveness?

Is that too much to ask? UGH.

There’s no word on how the service will be rolled out, or how long it will take, but we do know that some Austinites will be getting the gigabit internet, television, and telephone service in the future. So far Google has limited Fiber to Kansas City, MO and Kansas City, KA, but no longer.  hooooooooooooray

Natalie Maines, “Mother.”

I’d already signed up to volunteer the late shift Friday night during SXSW at my church, and this lady has been added to the lineup.  Yippee!

My sis pointed out today that I haven’t been posting much on Tumblr in recent days, and it won’t improve anytime soon.  I imagine I’ll be on Twitter during the fest because I can tweet from my phone.  Since Tumblr is slightly finicky on my Kindle, I likely won’t be checking in here much til the festival ends (except to link to stuff I write for Slackerwood).

Also, I’m moving to South Austin the weekend after the fest!

My March will be in-SAHN.
