See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

The wide-eyed owlish stare while vigorously sucking on her pacifier? She's got that down pat.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Weekly World News is dead!

Slate notes: The Los Angeles Times prints an essay by WWN writer Mark Miller, full of bittersweet dish. He writes that he was initially "confused about whether I was supposed to write true offbeat news, general satire or complete fabrication. So I asked. The response was loud and clear: 'complete fabrication.' "

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

So what are people having/did they have for lunch?

Not that I am avoiding work or anything.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I brought leftover pasta e fagioli that I cooked on Tuesday. But it turned out kinda bland, and I just saw that today is sweet potato fries day in the cafeteria, so...

(Also not avoiding work, not me, no never)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I had a buffalo chicken sandwich, which was a little sweet and gloppy, but generally good.

Then I had to tell my minion that, of three possible conferences, she has to go to the one with the least-exciting location and the least-preferred other coworkers going. (Including our crazy boss.) Ah well. I guess that's what you get for beeing the n00b.

Punishingly Intricate

So what are people having/did they have for lunch?

I had leftover thing I made last night from the new Latin American food issue of Gourmet. Scrambled eggs, tortilla chips, chorizo, and onion. YUM! Super easy and bad 4 you! Also, some grape tomatoes and carrots. Later I will have a pluot.

and maybe some afternoon caffeine. I'm very, very tired.
