Yogurt for protein later.
And calcium. Calcium is important!
Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I see Allyson reinforcing my theory that if there is a hell, it's the jury pool waiting room.
I want to take a physics class from the husband of one of my friends. He will show a Simpsons clip at the beginning of class and the kids have to identify the real-life physics issues portrayed in it.
I'm going to push my kids harder on math than I did myself. Seriously--actuarial work is an excellent way to make a living.

Hummus has protein!

Hummus has protein!
Only a couple of grams, right?

Depends on how much you eat, I think. But seriously, I thought chickpeas were a really good source of protein. Is that just something I read on the internet?

I would actually prefer to edit things electronically (I've become, by default, the office copyeditor ... yay?), but although I've asked repeatedly - and said I'd turn on track changes so they could see what I was doing (mostly eliminating serial commas) - I still get these beautifully laid out publications. Which I then go through and mark up. No one seems to run spellcheck before laying out the things, either, so I have to watch out for typos. And, since I always get them in color, I have to try to find a pen with a color that will show up. Really - it'd be easier for them if I got the files before layout!
And, speaking of track changes (yes, I was) - got a call from someone who'd purchased a contract document from us (Word file) and they were trying to have several people edit it, with a different color for each. But it kept defaulting to one color. I had to assure her that we had not done anything (on purpose) to make her job harder and that it was probably one of the Mysteries of Microsoft.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I am laboring under the impression that chickpeas are a good source of protein, too, but I may be reading the same internets as Jessica.
Ooh! Jessica! That reminds me, I bought the soap nuts from Lehman's. So far I like them! I thought I could just throw them in the bag, but it turns out for my front-loader I have to make the liquid soap. Which I complained about in my head, but turned out to be totally easy. Only the instructions on the bag say to use "1/4 cup in both the detergent and fabric softener containers." Does that mean, a total of 1/2 cup? Because I haven't been doing that.

Casper's third grade class uses red pen for correction - they do in-class markups of their own work (quizzes and worksheets and stuff - it would be hard to accurately edit their essays themselves.) If 8 year olds can take it, I think college students can.

Indeed! And hummus may have a ton of protein, I don't know -- okay, my hummus container says 2g of protein in 2 tbsp of hummus. (As soon as I posted that, I thought, "wait, hummus is chickpeas, so it has protein too! ...Someone is totally going to call me out on that.")
I find that yogurt fills me up more quickly, though, which is sometimes what I want these days -- something to make me Not Hungry for a little while!
