Natter 34: Freak With No Name
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I forgot to bring in my sticks o'cheese today. It must be monday.
While I'm not hungry, I'd rather not have a tearful meltdown later today so I braved the caf. Now have a smoked turkey with pesto mayo and romaine sandwich. Overpriced and the bread is a froofroo bread, but it is a bland froofroo. Otherwise, it's ok.
A while back I hired a Laura as a bookkeeper under the condition that she choose another name for work to keep vendors and customers from getting confused. She chose Susan because it was her favorite name. She also rocked.
t /random fictional Susan tale
Well, the tale was true, but the Susan name was fictional.
Jesse's lunch update: Meze Chicken Salad from Whole Foods. It totally kicks ass -- chicken, roasted red peppers, feta, olives, tabbouleh on top of mixed greens AND a dollar cheaper than the chicken caesar.
Chris and I are eating almost exactly the same thing, if you take into account that we didn't grocery shop this weekend, and so are left with Kraft Macaroni and cheese, as we don't have the chicken, red peppers, feta, olives, tabbouleh, and greens.
Susan Sto-Helit -- the best place to start might be
Hogfather
which really deserves to be filmed and shown every ChristmasHogswatchnight....

Hee! That's like my mother's old office where everyone was named David and all but one had to pick a new name...

Hee! Now I wish I had mac and cheese, though.
Susan in the Narnia Chronicles turned out to be lame -- but she really WAS screwed over by Lewis.

Oooooh, trade ya! I do probably win the cheap lunch stakes, at least at a per serving cost, unless someone else is eating grass, or possibly PBJ.
In addition to BK for lunch, I stopped by the library, paid my fine ($0.80) and got the next books in the Ian Rankin and Lawrence Block series that I am reading WHOOT. Then I went online and renewed Kitchen Confidential which I already have out to read for bookclub, but have yet to start AND requested a copy of the last Dana Stabenow in the Shugak series. AWESOME.
I must force myself to take a break from mysteries after I finish these.
I know a lot of really smart women named Susan IRL.
Susan Lewis on ER was always pretty cool, too.
ETA: No, msbelle, read Pelecanos next.(/Pelecanos likes Greek carrots)
Today is one of those rare days that I drove to work, so I think I'll take advantage of it and drive to downtown Evanston and get some General Tso's scallops. With hot and sour soup.
I am anticipating the nummy....
