Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Don't let Sci Fi see that. There will be a movie of the week in a second. I see . . .a botany lab next to a radiation lab. there's an accident and the wall between them is somehow knocked down. The carnivorous plants get blasted with radiation and VENUS MANTRAP is born!!!!!

Our wings are not tired.

The year is important, P-C. Some things change slightly from year to year. But you can read the used one you're getting, and then buy the new 2010 one when it comes out. Usually finance books bore the hell out of me, but this one is really good. And, when it comes to having both ESPP and regular company stock options, it can't be beat.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah, I'd like a chance to flip through it before I have to set my ESPP level.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just made a huge pot of chili, and it's excellent, if I do say so myself. Note to future self: I know it looks delicious, but licking the adobo sauce from the chipotles off one's fingers is not actually a great idea.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I may make some pumpkin muffins (whitey) tonight. Kinda depends if mac is a pisser again. Nothing sounds good for dinner, maybe I'll buy some ginger ale and have some whiskey with that.

Hmm. I have a pumpkin I need to do something with. Though I did just make gingerbread last night. And after the day I'm having I'm kind of planning on doing some drinking tonight, so it might not be the best time to experiment.

OTOH, it might be the best! Who knows what crazy thing I'll come up with.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

We were in a meeting the other day when someone brought in bagels. Apparently one was fruit based, but looked deceptively oniony. The designer put garlic spread on it and was...startled, to say the least. He said, "I would have expected [memfault on the exact fruit/sweet flavor] in a muffin!"

Had to excuse myself from the meeting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think I'm not touching office bagels anymore. Well, until the next hunger crisis. But the nastiness of a sweet bagel (or really, any bagel) that's been next to an onion bagel ruins all the fun. Why can't we all just enjoy Montreal-style plain, poppy-seed (see, I endorse kinds I don't eat), and sesame (mmmmmm) bagels?

I'm going to make spice cookies from msbelle's buffista cookbook recipe tomorrow, so I'd really better remember to buy flour tonight.
