I was reading takeout reviews (once again, not doing a lot of work) today and apparently there is a Jamaican place in Waverly (near work) that is really good. My thought was
hey, I can finally figure out what the hell ita and Jesse are talking about with patties and coco bread and...
Also, in my saga of not doing work, I had a higher rank coworker TOTALLY cover my ass (and gilded it) in the process of covering hers. I was working on a portion of a doc she's in charge of. My part is basically done, needs peer review, but the first draft has been done for a few weeks. I just hadn't sent it off (because...well, my first drafts are actually 101st drafts cause I never stop tweaking.) Anyway, boss asked her about her progress and then the status of my part. And she totally sold me as wonderful and excellent and I'd been very thorough and... Which she said
having not seen the doc nor checked with me on the status.
She told me "well, you always do everything so thoroughly, I figured I wasn't wrong." Which was nice to hear. But also? Really funny. I'm a class A procrastinator.
Ooh but it's worth it for you Chicago-istas to venture to Evanston for food at Addis Abeba. Best. Ethiopian. Food. Ever.
Huh. I just walked by that place a week ago and noticed it for the first time. I was thinking I'd have to try it.

Dudes, Jigglepuff can BRING IT.
Seriously. All these dogs BRING IT.

Do you think you're a Procrastinating Perfectionist? That's what happens to me. I can't let go of stuff because it could always be better. And sometimes I can't start stuff, because I want it to be perfect, and I don't have the time to make it perfect.

This is me. Lazy perfectionist.
So I'm watching the Pussycat Dolls show, and it's kind of funny because the lead singer from Pussycat Dolls was in that Popstars show, back in the day -- Eden's Crush!

I had a patty for the first time on Friday, I know what they are now! And what they are is delicious. Also tried some goat curry (yum) and ting. Other stuff was also yum, but not new to me.
lori, thanks for the update on Robin. Have you heard anything, today? How's Kat? Does she still have her lungs?
go go team lower interest rates. just got a 0% card and dumped some balances. now if I could just actually pay it off. current payment plan puts me 4 years away. Maybe a big chunk payment with tax refund will help.
