Happiest birthdays to all of you celebrating! I donated blood and now feel tired and woozy. Or woozier than usual.
Lake effect snow blows.
At lunch they included avocado fries with my salad. Heaven!
Lorne: Back in Pylea they used to call me "sweet potato." Connor: Really. Lorne: Yeah, well, the exact translation was "fragrant tuber" but…

The garage IS clean, and I will take after pic. I will I'd taken before, but hell, all you have to do is watch an episode of Hoarders to get the before pic.
Thanks, guys. I'm just taking a 15 minutes iced tea and wash hands break. Encouragement is good!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I am having irritated little forays into work. Like, I needed to cut paychecks, but the checkbook is in Dave's car. In New Mexico. Where there are no National Banks of Arizona. I have the cash bag. Which he needs to put his travel receipts in. Aargh. Minor, but annoying.
Ok, back to The Pile. Another fifteen minutes, and then I can go outside and garden. And then shower. And then pick up my friend and head to the ladies' thing.

Okay, I didn't know avocado fries existed, and now I cannot be happy until I have some.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Or until I paint my nails. I'll probably be happy then.
Okay, okay, I'm working!

Avocado fries sounds AWESOME.
You know what else sounds weird but are OMG amazing? Chickpea frites. Fried in duck fat. Had 'em at restaurant we went to for our anniversary, and they are cracktastic.

I donated blood
Me, too! I don't think they had a big turn out here at work--I was the only one in the room at noon. At least I thought to make sure my sleeve would roll up enough to get to the arm (I forgot to do that when we got our flu shots a few weeks ago).
I just got a research request forwarded to me by my new boss ten minutes ago, and I can't find the bill in either of the sites. I asked the editor for further info, but I'm only waiting another few minutes for her to get back to me--it's after 5:00, and she's probably gone already.

My salad had mixed greens, corn/black bean salsa and chicken with horseradish cheese and avocado fries. Amazingly good.
And I have two copies Cold Kiss in my car(one for me and one for the school library).

The garage sale shit may not be yours, but any money will be, won't it?
