Happy birthday, aurelia!
Wait. Black pudding isn't pudding? It's
blood?
Oh, ew.
Today has not started out well. I'm behind on two projects, and really need to spend this week catching up, and now I'm informed that my participation is
critical
in a series of all-day meetings lasting for three days this week. WTF? You guys knew about this three months ago and today you're telling me about it? Well, fine. Let's see who I can get to do my work for me.
Welcome to Monday, Buffistae! Hope yours is better than mine.
I wish I knew what I wanted to be when I grew up.
May I suggest: Cardboard Tube Champion!
shrift, unfortunately everything I want to be and everything I have skills for does not pay particularly well. It's a bummer.
Which is my way of saying, good luck.
ION, I think I need one of these. I love Eli the seltzer man, but we've been getting more and more dud bottles from him lately. Plus there's the carrying 10 glass bottles of seltzer up 4 flights of stairs every week.
Jess, are we reading the same blogs? Because just last week I read about the seltzer machine, and since I have an addiction to seltzer (I buy 4-5 two-liter bottles a week), I am SO buying one of those machines.
May I suggest: Cardboard Tube Champion!
What's the compensation on that?

Yeah, it only takes about an hour searching Craigslist to convince me that I have no marketable skills.
There was a Buckeye disaster. The peanut butter was way too sweet. This has the advantage of meaning I can eat a part of a buckeye and be all, "okay, way too much." I took the dozen I made, packaged them in boxes and they will be given away.
Ooh, I want one of those seltzer things. And they come in penguin! [link]
Buckeye disaster! Oh, noes!
Damn. Suddenly I'm nostalgic for the midwest. Guess it's a good thing it's the holiday season.
Ooh, which reminds me, Steph, I'll be in your hood next month...Nov. 14th - 18th. Will you be around and not crazy occupied between the moving and the dad and the life and everything? The SO & I would love to see you.
