Wow, Fred, that's heavy. continuing -ma for Egypt.

Mubarak is too brown for today's GOP, but being a cranky old militarist stuck in the past...well, I hear Kyl isn't running again. HM and John McCain should get together and go bowling/yelling at clouds. ION, the Treme soundtrack may be the Best CD In The world

Hrmph. I've gotten in the habit of making a fritata for my weekend breakfasts, the past couple weeks. If I make it Thursday night, I can eat it Fri/Sat/Sun. And the last couple I made were super yum. But the one I made last night? Not amazing. I thought butternut squash would be awesome! And it's...not.

Was it too soft? It doesn't have a really strong flavor for a frittata.

I try to use stronger flavored vegetables which will contrast with the mellow egginess. So I do asparagus a lot. Roasted peppers. Strong cheeses.

Mubarak kept saying he wanted to die and and be buried in Egypt. I guess when the prospect became immediate he changed his mind.

Frittata has totally become my brunch go to. I like sundried tomatoes in them.

Well, previously I was using potatoes, a little pepper and onion (came with the potatoes), and broccoli and cauliflower. I think part of it was that the stuff I used this time was unseasoned, so it was a little more bland (and I forgot to put in the paprika! I used squash and a different broccoli/cauliflower mix). I should've used the asparagus I bought, it's true.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Oops. I thought the insulation installation was done yesterday, so i slept in. Nay, i reveled in my clean sheets and squeaky clean bedroom. I woke up repeatedly throughout the morning and told my brain to shove it and went back to sleep.

When i finally got up at 9:45...turns out the insulation guys have been waiting on my front porch since 9am. They still have three more days of work to do in the attic. *gulp* Ooops. Sorry about that. Cats locked up in the guest room today for i do not wish to wash my sheets AGAIN after three more days of terrified Nico burrowed in my bed.

I think today's lunch is just going to be a hotdog. I'm getting a bit tired of grilled chicken with salsa (my fallback at the cafeteria when nothing else appeals).

That which does not kill you should RUN

Mubarak kept saying he wanted to die and and be buried in Egypt. I guess when the prospect became immediate he changed his mind.

When he made that statement, it sounded to me like a dare. Seriously. And I expected him to be taken out -- as in killed, not escorted to the door -- before the weekend was over.

I guess even a delusional dictator can exhibit common sense once in a while.

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

Big changes in Egypt, scary and exciting.

I think the interview went well. I think the pay will be low and the hours longer than I want, but the company would be good for me long-term.
