Just got out of a very interesting meeting with my boss. The department chair wants us to start making alternate plans for how to move classes to off-campus locations, get brochures printed by non-campus services, food service, etc. In case of a work stoppage. Now, the chair is not a union member and I was up at the capitol with my union rep yesterday and nothing was said of a work stoppage then. So...interesting times.
The last time the state workers went on strike was 1976. Makes me wish my mother was still alive so I could pick her brains.
NO COLLECTIVE BARGAINING FOR ZOMBIES!!!!
NO COLLECTIVE BARGAINING FOR ZOMBIES!!!!
OK, now they're gonna have to go on strike for that right.
MY MOTHER IS NOT A ZOMBIE!
eta: Although I am sure that is something she would strike for.
MY MOTHER IS NOT A ZOMBIE!
Are you sure? She could be sneaking out of her grave at night for BRAINS... or to go to work.

I really need not to cook crockpot meals while I'm actually at home. The smell is killing me.
I've learned not to start them before I go to bed, 'cause waking up to smell of them in the morning is nasty no matter how much it's something I like. It's not breakfast food, I don't want to smell it in the morning.
I haven't met the food food that's not breakfast food. I will eat stew or chocolate cake for breakfast, if it's around and tasty. I just hate the idea of food smelling that I'm not allowed to eat. Overnight stuff I'm usually going to pack a helping of for lunch, so it's not so bad.
This, this won't be done for another three or four hours.
At which point I need to try and make rice again. That should be easy, no? But I cannot consistently succeed with white rice. I don't know what's wrong with me. I can make souffles and bread and fancy sauces, but I can't time a pot of rice to finish up with the rest of the meal.
