I am left over wired from caffeine. I have no interest in doing my work for work, but could easily stay up another 2 hours cleaning out stuff in my room to get rid of.
Natter Five-O: Book 'Em, Danno.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I was going to sympathize with childhood home loss, but then I realized that my childhood home, which my parents sold two years ago, was in fact part of a development built on what used to be someone's family farm.
So, uh, maybe I'm not the right person for this.
Danskos rock. I think I need to get a new pair.
The Riches started out rollicking and then took quite a turn. Eddie Izzard is supposed to be answering fan questions in the fan podcast at the FX website.
All Tommorow's Parties is a great book. I should reread it. I should reread all my Gibson. It's been a while since I did that.
I must be, like, a subtaster. I like really acidic and bitter things. Also salty, but I think that's just the Japanese thing.
Salt and vinegar: mmmmm.
I love salty. I do not love bitter, but most vegetables don't taste bitter to me, except for things like bitter greens, which I do not like one bit. Grapefruit is also blech. Blech, blech, blech. And, of course, blech to cilantro, which tastes like soap.
Yeah, totally. Mmm, salt & vinegar. Mmm, grapefruit! That reminds me, I have grapefruit juice in the fridge right now! Oh, yeah, and mmm to the whitefont.
Bitter depends a lot on the flavor. Other than that I really like most strong tastes - spicy, sour, etc. But cilantro is still the devil's taste.
ETA: We have free grapefruit juice in my office. Yay! Actually we have a fancy schmancy coffee/espresso/latte machine and a separate one with oj, grapefruit, and lemonade. It's kind of crazy - this is our "breakroom": [link]
How crazy is that? There's a reason this company is a leader in workplace strategies, I guess. It's like a little cafe. And you can see Millenium Park and Soldier Field from the windows.
I'm home again! Yyyyyayyy.
But! No jail time, so I'm definitely one up on Erin.
