Someone is making a crockpot full of velveeta and canned beef chili right outside my door.
Holy shit, that sounds awesome. I love Velveeta.
Ugh, ita. You're a victim of your own success!
You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Bah. There is construction at the Red Line station in Evanston (new condo going up across the street). So the bus I was in got stuck against a flatbed semi that was unloading construction supplies. The truck pulled forward and I could feel the bus shake as the two scraped against each other. It looked like the bus would stay there for a while while everyone filled out paperwork, so I walked to work from the station instead.
On the bright side, I got my xmas bonus today.

I think the canned chili bothers me most. One, I'm not a fan of the whole beans/ground beef/tomato chili thing. Two, canned? It smells like dog food when it is first opened. A common problem with canned beef in anything.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm out of vacation days,but I do have a personal day left to use up. If the strike lasts more than two days, I'm totally giving myself a 6-day weekend. (We're already off next week M-W.)

Yeah, that's probably true.

Do people think the strike will go on for a while?

I mean, isn't a lot of dog food technically canned beef?

A sort of vegatarian chilli I've made in the past is really simple. Can of bean, can of tomato sauce, bunch of heated up southern style potatoes, and a bag of taco seasoning with a bit of water to thin it out. Probably with some fritos or crackers and some grated cheese.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
So they were there to report a crowding that - at the time - they were the ones creating?
American media at its best.
My sympathies to the strike-affected peeps. Do they have estimates on how long it will last?
