On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Salmon loaf is of the yum.

Also found to my surprise that I like canned mackerel fish burgers, since (unlike canned salmon) I don't like canned mackerel straight. However rinse, mix with cornmeal, milk and egg, then bake or fry in olive oil on top of the stove it is quite tasty, and has no canned mackerel taste remaining, though I can't guarantee what the flavor would be like to supertasters. The secret that was passed to me was not to use spices, no mustard no garlic, not even salt and pepper. Supposedly any of these would bring back the mackerel flavor. I've never violated this rule on grounds of not changing what works, though I suspect it is nonsense. Birth of a superstition?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

This 9/80 work schedule is killer. I'm just exhausted.

Ran into lori on lab today, though. Makes it feel homier.

Also, I learned a new french word, today, and wanted to try it out on Megan. It is BOF!

And that is the only french I know.

Bof? eta AH!

It's nice to see you, Allyson!

So Vegas was good. I love Mandalay Bay so much. Even with a toddler in tow. We got to swim, we had the lazy river, we did not get to participate in the wave pool. We ate at our favorite hotel for food, even though we couldn't sit at the oyster bar as we had a little one in tow.

Also got to see a friend from high school (both K and I did, actually). So that part was good too.

I have 2 more weeks of school and my grades are already turned in. It's making it hard to motivate.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

One of my French teachers in high school told us that were were not allowed to say "um" when we were pausing while speaking in French, because "um" was English -- we had to use "euh" or "ben." (I have no idea how to spell that first one -- nothing looks right.)

Speaking of meh, not too thrilled by the mesclun, cherry, and chevre salad, but I'm happy to report that the cherries are no more. Brandy may have been involved.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I feel like such a slacker for having to ask this, but what is a 9/80 schedule?
