In random news, I ended up poaching the ancient frozen chicken breasts and making them into salad, and they were just fine!
Don't you just love this party? Everything's so fancy, and there's some kind of hot cheese over there.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

poaching the ancient frozen chicken breasts
This sounds like you went all Indiana Jesse on an ancient temple of a chicken worshiping tribe that has become lost to the ages in the frozen wastelands of the arctic. Maybe that's just me though.

It was much like that, yes.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So, is the Tuesday after a three-day weekend worse than a typical Monday? or not?
So far, my Tuesday has been better than a typical Monday....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Is sending "thank you" emails after phone interviews too much? Not that I can, since I don't have the email addresses of the people I spoke to. Just wondering if it was done. Maybe I should have sucked up more and asked...
No point over secondguessing that. Still wonder if it's done.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Sotomayor is officially Obama's pick for the Supreme court.
She's Latina, brilliant, and has years of experience on the Federal Appeals court. The Republicans can huff and puff but she'll go in. She's 54 years old. Huh. She's only five years older than me.

I don't think so, but remember in my world, you should thank someone seven times every time they give you anything.
My Tuesday is going OK.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
My Tuesday is going ok. I need to ramp up my productivity though, or Wednesday will suck taters.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Sotomayor has been the subject of an anonymous whisper campaign ever since it became clear she was on Obama's short list.

I love the "whisper campaign" as a verbal construct, not the real actual shittiness behind it. But I love the idea of gossipy people in 1950's garb whispering behind their gloved hands to talk smack.
It's a really cool label, for an awful concept.
