Cooking rice. There are bugs in it. Gross.
Was the rice in a tube?
Yeah. He's my hero.

Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Mostly lurking...
Was the rice in a tube?
Nope. It was the nice, expensive Uncle Ben's kind. If only...

Was it in a sealed container, vw? I'd complain to the company, if so.
I decided to yank my motivation back by the short hairs. No fair, it having more fun than I am. IOW, that means I've actually sorted clothes and am on the way out to start some loads of laundry. If I don't do it now, it won't get done before Bones and House and then won't get done, after. I blame this on the cat. If he'd just stayed curled up by my side in the chair, I never would have got out to start sorting.

Has anybody seen my motivation?
I think mine is hanging out with Sail's and vw's. It's funny. I got a work-related compliment, and my only thoughts were: have you seen my office? the piles of work that I have not yet done? how those piles are growing daily? Still, compliments are nice.
All this talk of voting makes me feel like a slacker. But we have no elections here today, so it's not my fault!

Thrive to spite them
Once again today I wondered how the division head managed to not drown in the shower.
Today's version of "Guess that Office Product" went like this:
Division Head: "I need some ....manilla folders."
Me: (realizing this can't be as easy as that) "Do you mean file folders?"
Division Head: "No, those folders with the clamps on them....that you put things in." (she also mimed that part).
Me: (moment of confusion where I know she's not asking for the folders we use for personnel, that's too advanced.) lightbulb! "You mean manilla envelopes?"
Division Head: "Yes! with the clamps."
Unfortunatly we didn't have any manilla envlopes with the prong closures so I had to get those from somewhere else.

The status is NOT quo.
Aimee, yes really. My mom is coming in the night before, so I'll even have backup!
What's the time frame?

I have to share this story, I hope it livens up your day like it did mine.
My friend's 8 year old daughter was Jango Fett for Halloween. They arrived at one house to be greeted at the door by a Darth Vader of the same approximate size and age complete with Darth Vader Voice Changer Mask. In all seriousness Darth says "we meet again, Mr. Fett". My friend said he laughed so hard other parents on the sidewalk were staring at him.

The status is NOT quo.
No problem. We can work out the details later this evening. Kisses.
And on that note, I am so outta here. No more yucky work for me.
Well, except the grading and parent emails I'll be doing tonight.

Our wings are not tired.
Darth says "we meet again, Mr. Fett
That would have made me collapse in laugher too. Very cute.
