River ,'Out Of Gas'
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.
Dear Humans:
Why the hell would you choose to sit right next to me and crowd me when there is an entire row of empty chairs across from you?
Please ass off and die.
Signed, Cranky with personal space issues.
PS. All children in the terminal SHUT UP and SIT STILL.
Maybe that sort of agreement could work for you?
That's pretty much how we work it now, it's just that we've had so many people in and out in the last few days that I don't even know who to point at and say, "J'accuse!"
Dear Humans:
Ahahaha, humans. There was an entitled assmunch causing a bottleneck on my bus this morning, and I spent a good fifteen minutes thinking about stabbing him with a pen.
I... might be a little cranky this week.
shrift, maybe a more formal method of dividing up fridge space, so that you get a special shelf of 'don't touch without permission!' food? (And roommate vice versa.) Also, don't discount the possibility that the food-taker was mistaken about what was on offer because of a misapprehended permission.
Also, and seriously: sometimes very nice people are just freaky about food, as in well-concealed bulimia or other problems likewise.
Oh fuck me. Now there are twitchy children sitting on both sides of me. I hope Disney World is closed when we get to Orlando.
I might be a little cranky this morning.
Also, don't discount the possibility that the food-taker was mistaken about what was on offer because of a misapprehended permission.
Seriously, this is my assumption. I don't think that people are rooting through the refrigerator willy-nilly.
Oh yeah, I actually hadn't thought of that. "Oh, sure -- help yourself to anything!"
Although, I will say, as a guest, I would still confirm: "Can I take this quinoa salad?"
Possibly this is due to growing up in a household where things in the fridge might look like available leftovers, but are actually part of a Master Plan for dinner that I'd better not fuck up.
MMM... I want quinoa salad now!
also! paperwork is signed for my leave to go work for UCLA! Happy!
I don't know why I imagined shrift's future-lunch to be quinoa salad, but maybe it's a Sign!
Yay UCLA!!
Despite having eaten a bowl of cereal the size of my head less than 4 hours ago, I am chomping at the bit to have lunch today. Maybe a Buffalo shrimp wrap & potato wedges from Wings to Go.
