Today on the train, an African-American gentleman...
Because he’s a geeky looking white guy who has a lot of money, and that’s the type of guy you want running the country.

Five Things Friday.
1. I’m leaving early today. My boss’s boss’s boss approved an early release, which sounds more like a problem one would have in the bedroom IFYOUKNOWWHATIMEAN
2. I took Tuesday off to meet with the head of the school we want to put Thomas in, so essentially I have a 4 day weekend. I’m kind of burnt out, so this is definitely a good thing.
3. A project I’ve been working on for months is $117...

Fun with words.
I love collective nouns. They’re so interesting to me. I love how they can be so obscure and yet somehow fit so perfectly.
A murder of crows.
A business of ferrets.
An ambush of tigers.
I love them.
I propose to create a new one, right now, for all of you to use.
Henceforth any group of 3 or more women talking and laughing loudly on a train at 7 o’clock in the morning shall be...

Julie and I aren’t as close as some of you are, but we are friends. We talk sporadically and we start every conversation talking about how we suck at keeping in touch with each other. And sometimes we just catch up and sometimes we have really deep meaningful conversations and sometimes we just joke around and laugh and I’m just really incredibly sad about everything. I wish I had...
Fuck
Brain: Hey instead of going to sleep let's stay up and think about shit!
Me: Fuck you, brain. Get out of my head.

I have no words. Julie, we all love you. I wish I could heal your body the way you have helped heal my heart.
Exactly and precisely this.
Because of the stupid train, I'm here for another...
And I’m out of food.
No, no. Listen you guys.
I’m out of food. That’s what I do. I eat. How can I eat if I have no food???
Dammit.

The PA announcer's estimation of being 20 minutes...
By an hour.
Also it’s raining and we all know how I feel about umbrellas.
Also fuck this day.

All Aboard.
PA announcer: We encountered an unexpected problem and will be about 20 minutes late.
Ticket Guy: Tickets!
Me: Real quick question. Is that 20 minutes late from the time we're scheduled to arrive, or 20 minutes late from how late you guys were to begin with?
Ticket Guy: ... Tickets!

Chrono Triggering
So as you can see from my super mature last post, the boredom of no internet at work this morning got the better of me and I started playing Chrono Trigger again.
I’ll be busy for a while.
Don’t miss me too much.

I NEVER feel like that anymore.

Five Things Friday.
1. The personality traits I hate in other people are more often than not the ones that reflect personality traits I hate in myself.
2. Finding all of those problems with my car (I brought it in for a leaking radiator) sucks, but luckily I don’t use my car very often anymore, so I can take care of it piece by piece, as I can afford it, until it’s done.
3. This hasn’t been a bad week, per se,...
So then I was all like, "Fuck you, God, I'm not...
And God was all, “Cracked radiator. Broken tie rods. Bald tires. Filthy transmission fluid. $1500. What now?”
And I was all, “Fuck.”
This is not turning into a food blog.
This has always been a food blog.

The soup was good, but
It was way too greasy. And I’m not really sure why. The recipe called for a 1/4cup of oil, and I didn’t use nearly that much, but it was still very very oily.
So I think next time, I’ll dirty the extra pan and dry roast the vegetables in the oven and THEN add the broth and all of that stuff.
Either way I’d definitely make it again.
Overanalyzing Texts
quinnk:
What are the men in your life really saying when they send you a text message? Not to deter you from more hours of over-thinking, but I’ve dissected and analyzed enough text messages from men to now know what they’re really saying. Because if we know anything it’s that men are very, very complicated creatures…right?
