Oh! Oh! I forgot to share something funny!
So ND and I went out for Chinese a couple of weeks ago. We go to this great little place down the street--best wonton soup ever. Anyway, at the end of the meal, we get our fortune cookies. Mine has some vague fortune, as per usual. ND's says, "Perhaps you've been focusing too much on yourself." I laugh at him. A lot.
Flash forward a week. We're listening to
Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me
on NPR, and get to the "Bluff the Listener" segment. If you aren't familiar with the show, this is the part where the panel tells three unbelievable stories and the listener has to try to guess which one is true. The true story? Is about how there was a limited run of depressing fortune cookies in the country with bummer fortunes like "Perhaps you've been focusing too much on yourself." It is
exactly
ND's luck that he would get one of those fortunes. I find this all terribly amusing.
Omnis, that's normal. It's serous fluid and it's full of white blood cells. It should dry up and get scabby soon.
x-post: Sorry to hear about the fall, Omnis. Hope you heal quickly.
Cash, thanks for the confirmation. I suspected it was benign in nature, but, ya never know.
KT, thanks. All in all, it wasn't a bad fall. Just haven't done it in awhile, especially one where red stuff escaped. It's just sucky that the face has to get road rashed as I'm trying to woo cute new gal in graphics. The under nose looks like a lil faint scrape. Under eye will probably be more of a minor shiner than anything. the over eye is the big scrape. The band-aid is right on the eyebrow. Must. Pull. Slowly. to avoid strange new look.
the straight brother of one of the gay boys who said that he always liked hanging out with his brothers friends because there was always a straight girl or two around that he could hook up with
Heh. Yeah, I made out with him. We were doing tequila shots in the kitchen. :)
OK, I'm officially coming out as a military history geek at work. Soon this guy [link] and this guy [link] will be standing guard on my desk at the office.
the LA times Sudoku was rated at 5 stars. I did it in about 15 minutes. It wasn't easy, per se, but it didn't last me as long as I was hoping. Still not tired.
Mmm me either... gonna try to hit the sack though
was hoping it would last thru This American Life #110 Mapping. Pod casting. This one on mapping. I'm a bit in love with maps (please don't look in my center console in the car!... or hear me complain in Halo how it doesn't have the map like Marathon did). So. Like. I can't go to bed until it's done.
Good luck, Cashmere!
So, my body? Not adjusting to the time change :). Oh, well. Timelies!
