I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I try not to be judgmental about people who don't have emergency guest coffee.

If I'm a guest in someone's house, I figure I drink what they have. And if I need caffeine that they don't have, I can go get some. No big. When I'm visiting my folks because they asked me to come by and help them set up the garden for spring/put pictures up/move furniture/etc. I'm usually feeling less guest-like and more give-your-cheap-labor-some-perks-already-like.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I carry emergency teabags for places that only have decaf coffee. because I will end up with a headache, about 50% of the time if there is no caffine. My folks drink decaf - but they have two coffee pots so they can make both.

I always say "soda". I think I use BOO-tique, though I honestly don't think I've ever paid much attention. And I usually call ATMs "the cash machine".

And, my job is going through ANOTHER restructuring after we just went through one this past August. I'll just call that the suck.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Hmm. My paranoia that I'm on filter increaseth apace.

I say "BOO-tique" although I have vague memories of someone in my family saying "BOW-tique". It's weird that I got more unsure of it all the longer I thought of it.

kat, that is very much the suck. I'm sorry to hear it. My employer had reorgs in 2002, 2004 and right now. Sign of a healthy organization...NOT.

Ooh, space sake!

An association of Japanese firms based in Kochi Prefecture has started brewing sake from yeast they persuaded the Russians to send into space for 10 days in October on board the spacecraft Soyuz.

The result? Well, nobody knows yet--the sake goes on sale April 1, though tastings will start as early as mid-January.

"Terrestrial magnetism may have had an effect on the yeast while it was in orbit," said Sho Arimitsu, 48-year-old president of the Aki city-based Arimitsu Shuzojo Co., the first company in the association to begin making the new space sake. "I am excited about what it will taste like."
