So, I have a meeting with outside people, which has turned into less of a Big Deal meeting than we thought, so I'm basically going to have to run the meeting, as opposed to any higher-ups. Too bad I am hungover and tired! A friend's problems made me drink too much last night.
You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sad about Ted Kennedy. But given the push for the appointment resolution, I figured the end was near.
Last night, I made croquettes for dinner: [link] They were DELISH!! (And I love that the Ikea plates that the croquettes are on in the picture are see through and you can see the oilcloth on our table), a bit of a mess to make, but good.
FTR, I ended up making them with butternut squash.

Sympathy drinking is the worst.

I would like some croquettes!

On further reflection, it's got to be more the staying out too late than the drinking, because I'm pretty sure I had like three beers. Hmph.

If you have to use the phrase "I'm pretty sure", you should probably double the estimated amount of booze.

Of course, there are always Drew's "count the limes" and Hil's "I'll do math in the morning" methods.

Heh. There were two on the check, and we got comped a round, so it's got to be four tops. And that was over hours and hours!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

That's funny, Campus Queen was, I think, a game. I have one of the lunchboxes, they were for a time highly sought in the ebay market, I should look into that and see ig I can sell mine now.
