I'm sitting in the Honda service waiting room as they replace my car's headlights. Eh, it's a recall job, so it only costs me some time. Next I'll be buying a backup drive and then going home to watch last night's SPN.
There's an ad on tv right now for Chrysler, talking about how much more luxurious and stylish America use to be back in (judging by the cars and clothes) the 30s and 50s. They're only showing white people. I feel like writing a sociopolitical rant about it, but I'm on my phone and the keyboard's not exactly convenient for paragraphs full of rant. So I'll just say "Hmmmm".
My Federal refund covered my State debt and most of the software cost, so I came out of it about even, which was as much as I could reasonably hope for.
I don't yet have my W-2 from my old job. When I emailed about it, they told me I could get it by logging onto the ADp website that has our paystubs, but I am no longer an employee and my log-in doesn't work. Then they told me to get a new log-in I would need the last paystub that was handed out before going to this system. I have no idea where that is and I am not searching for it.
I'm not allowed to buy any more shoes until I get rid of some.
I wish I could impose that rule on The Boy. It's sort of hilarious how we have completely reversed the stereotypical gender roles, in certain situations -- I have indeed asked him, many many times, "How many pairs of black shoes DO YOU NEED?!?" I cringed the first time it came out of my mouth, but now I stand by it. Some day I will have to take a picture of his shoes, because it's comical. (Though, to be fair, he wears a lot of them, very often, so it's not like he impulse-buys and then tosses them in a corner.)
I need coffee recs. I want something to make at home that is smoky and not too dark. I am overly sensitive to coffee with the bitter aftertaste and can't stand that. I like flavored blends or regular and am fine with buying online. I'm willing to spend more to get something really good since I don't drink it too often and am trying to kick the expensive grab-coffee-at-store-on-way-to-work habit. So...medium or light roasts without bitter aftertaste recs--go!
well it is not coffee, but celestial seasonings Roastarama tea tastes smokey and nutty and not at all bitter to me. It's the only tea I really drink with milk since it tastes so much closer to coffee.
Well, I just ordered my favorite Kona, which is from Left Coast Coffee. They also have an imprint with a less political name that I recommend to my conservative friends, heh. But I think they're great, and of course Kona is very smooth. I actually buy their darker roast, even though Kona is typically medium roast, because I think it's well suited to their particular bean. But it's not smoky at all. It's still pretty expensive. But I love the people, and it comes in an aloha print fabric bag!
Ha. We are typical. ita recommends Blue Mountain and I recommend Kona.
I had a feeling that might happen. Ha!
You know, I do like smoky but I think really what meant to say is that I like my coffee to have some body, but I hate the bitterness that so often accompanies it. So ignore the smoky. I just want something with substance without being too strong. I love smooth coffees.
