Had a meeting with my advisor that actually went OK. Today we were just going over math stuff, not writing stuff.

Oh, and I have sort of completed somewhere around 60 job applications. (I lost count a little bit, because the way I'm keeping track of them leads to a few duplicates if I try to just count. But it's somewhere between 59 and 61.)

But it's somewhere between 59 and 61

That's a very mathy thing to say. I don't see between as =, and I'm thinking integers, so I wasn't sure why you'd written it that way, but I need to parse more flexibly.

Somewhere between 59 and 61, inclusive.

Bunch of nerds around here, I'll tell you what.

To celebrate, I bring you Toaster Purse: [link] (YouTube)

Somebody tell me to get up and make pie.

I have apples, I have crust, I have small pumpkins, I have Splenda Blend Brown Sugar. And yet, somehow I don't have pie.

I don't know what to have for dinner. I don't really have anything that'll cook quickly, and I don't feel like doing actual cooking.

Andi, go make pie.

I found a package of macaroni and uncheese while I was searching to see if I had any Indian food-in-a-box. The website that I bought it from says it's the best vegan mac and cheese mix ever. As far as I know, there's only one other brand that makes a vegan mac and cheese mix, and I thought it was OK but not great. So I'll give this kind a try, even though it's absurdly expensive and requires two pots.

I'm considering the wisdom of making it "Mexican" by adding a can of Ro-Tel. I bought two cans of Ro-Tel when I only needed one, and I have no idea what to do with the other one, since I never use it in anything. Maybe I'll make some chili or something tomorrow.

Operation: Getting Rid of Crap is going pretty well! We just got rid of our futon and 2 area rugs tonight. We'll be bringing our old queen sized sheets and blankets and pillows to the animal shelter that we adopted Taz and Marley at. We both made a pretty decent first pass/purge through our closet and dressers. We've cleared out crap from various shelves so we can consolidate and hopefully get rid of old shelves.

Whoo!

remember our discussion about the wet look leggings? Imagine my horror when I saw this banner ad at the top of a web page. I don't know what to say. I don't think that I've ever seen anything this horrible. I don't know what to say. I don't think that I've ever seen anything this horrible. [link]
