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.

Hi, Natter. Just a little soon to be thinking about food. From last night, can't believe I missed The Job on broadcast...it sounds like a show for me and twelve other people, not counting Leary's mom, but I was probably trying too hard to be A Real Girl then, and as you've probably guessed, Leary? Not aiding that effort. Hec, wow, I love tart things, but just thinking about drinking vinegar and my face puckers(even if I have drunk pickle brine)

You guys are really putting me off my food with all this salad talk.

Pizza pizza pizza! Cheesy yummmy goodness!

I used to like vinegar. Then it started doing something weird to my mouth and leaving a horrid aftertaste.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

in 4 days I shall be in Canada, Land of Being Offered Vinegar (or Gravy!) With Fries As A Matter Of Course.

For me, just two, but I'll be going for the mayo.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I was trying to watch The Job when it was broadcast, but it was really hard. It was on ABC, which I had awful reception of at the time, and kept moving around and disappearing and reappearing without warning. I recently finished watching the DVDs and am said that I"ll never find out what happened to those people. Those terrible terrible people with bad habits who made poor choices.

(I think you mean Conga, Hec)

Thanks for the -ma.

I survived the meeting and it went fairly well. Once people arrived from the wrong address that I provided to them (doh!) and I explained why the date was wrong on the agenda, things improved greatly.

*sigh*

"Those terrible people who had bad habits and made terrible choices." You say that like it's a bad thing. ;)(Most of them are firefighters on Rescue Me now, I think.) Yeah, I think I'm gonna have to watch it now.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Oh, I loved The Job (what I managed to see of it, as ita point out.) You will too, Erika. I'll have to track down the dvds.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Mmmm, brown gravy and fries. I first heard of that when I saw the movie DINER and immediately tried it at the local greasy spoon (the late Charlie's Cafeteria in Kenmore Square, where Myles Standish Hall went when there was a 3 am fire alarm) - it was teh YUM!
