With my stupid food issues, I've had to divorce all breads and pasta made from wheat. And I suffer the next day for a potato, though sometimes, I decide it's worth it.

We've discovered some pastas made with rice, though, so my devotion to white food has not gone completely unrequited.

Plei, I was thinking of you and ita on Friday when we had a poutine disaster. They layered it up with some kind of meat, shredded cheese, and then no sauce. When we asked about it they were all "oh, yeah, we were out of gravy." This is the problem with people serving poutine who don't even know what it is.

We did have some scrumptious beer battered pickles (who knew?) and potatoe ravioli with greens and cannellini that the waitress accidentally ordered instead of the poutine in the first place that was delish. So I'll be going back to the place, but not for any $12 cheese fries.

M bread, F pasta, C potatoes.

For right now, anyway.

I have discovered the wonderfulness that is chicken sausage. Ohmigawds so good.

My students just said they'd pass on a movie today in order to keep working.

Emily, your students are pod people. Calmly, without giving any indication that you are on to them, pack your things and leave the building. Proceed directly to a local army surplus store and inquire about purchasing a flamethrower.

Only after you have acquired the flamethrower should you return to work.

My life would be so different if I had followed your instructions over the last 15 years.

I hear that alot. I'm never sure if it's good or bad.

Jessica, your customers are beyond saving. Calmly, without giving any indication that you are on to them, pack your things and leave the building. Proceed directly to a local army surplus store and inquire about purchasing a flamethrower.

This morning I got on a train, but the train just sat there. For about five minutes. The engineer was obviously a pod person, right?

There was, in fact, an army surplus store just outside the station, but it was closed. But nothing bad happened. Except now I have this pod sitting next to me, and I don't remember why for....
