Jessica, I'd give some of the fish dishes a try--ackee and saltfish, rundown mackerel, escoveitched fish. The sort of sides you get with those breakfasts foods would be fried plaintain (which I'm sure you've tried), boiled plaintain (nice, but not as nice), boiled green bananas (delicious when mashed with butter right there on your plate), boiled (nasty) or roasted (delicious) breadfruit, fried bammy (cassava cakes), festival (like johnnycakes, I've been told, but sweeter), yams (not what you call yam in America), fried dumplings...the list continues and continues

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

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Augh. To call, or to e-mail? If I e-mail everyone at Small Branch Office, at least they'll know I'm actually from Parent Company, not that this will help matters, because no one at Small Branch Office will know the answer to the question I'm going to ask. They never do.

I had Thai for lunch with my coworkers. Just vegetarian spring rolls and wonton soup, but yummy and hot.

Where is nearby Thai? I'll probably just do Potbelly today.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Ohhh. I want Thai for lunch!
But I have no friends for to lunch with.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Skipped over 5,000 posts. Ugh.
Sitting here trying to pass time before my interview. I should probably eat lunch, but I'm waiting for a call back from company to verify my interview time. They gave me two different times originally, and because I got the message while I was on my way to visit my folks, I wrote it down on a convinient piece of paper that seems to have inconviniently vanished from my car. I'm pretty sure I have the right time, but I don't want to show up 30 minutes late by mistake.
Having done enough interviews, I've come realize the ooky almost sick feeling is actually my nerves, and nothing to do with my health. Bleagh. The feeling is intensified to today by 1) really wanting this job and 2) I thought I nailed the interview I had on Monday for some contract work with a different company and it turned out not so much.
