by the time we got there only to be turned away, I was really craving some chicken tikka masala.
Almost like Proust's madeleines, only with a rich spicy red sauce.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ugh. I have managed water this morning. And a fistful of pills. And I haven't quite gotten out of bed, save to my desk to log into work remotely and work from home.
I don't think I've can ever have been this nauseous before. I never throw up, so it's just a matter of waiting for the anti-nausea meds to kick in, but it's damned irritating.

Who but Buffistas could crack a friggin' Proust joke off the cuff like that?
I love us.

I had Pork Chops in a Rhubarb Glaze with Red Potatoes. My company has an awesome cafeteria.

ita - I hope it was not last night's pizza. I hope you feel better.

Oooh. I want Victor's cafeteria.
Though since I'm working from home, technically there is nothing stopping me but laziness.
I do have rhubarb in the fridge. But I'll probably have a lean cuisine instead. I'm thinking the rhubarb will be used for some blackberry or strawberry rhubarb cobbler...

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
I had a corned beef sammich.
And some 'tater salad.
...
And a apple.
...
Holy fuck, I'm in junior high again!

I want to go to Meara's and have cobbler.
I am almost almost almost done with the Dread Syllabus. It's way too long but not intended for students, but the CB. Sigh.
I'm starved.

Mmmmmm... cobbler is my favorite thing in the world. Just got my new apartment without a biohazard of a roommate, I can start cooking again!
Anyone have any suggestions, I'm a bit out of practice and want to try something new.
