Mmmmm. Caaaaaaaaaake.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My mom made an apple gingerbread last night that was awfully good. Maybe I'll do something like that tonight, but more apple-y, since I need to do something with them....
Edit: Except of course I have neither molasses nor golden syrup in the house. (and I don't actually know what golden syrup is, in American.) Hm.
Damn, these fries are good. I should let you know, I showed remarkable restraint by not getting the cheese fries.
And what to drink? Anything other than shake or beer = incredible restraint.

Yay Scrappy's mom! That's awesome!!
I woke up with an awful headache, took muscle relaxant, and fell back into bed for a while. Headache is still a little present, so other than glancing at my work email to make sure nothing was massively urgent, I am just waking up and having some breakfast. Hoping I can beat it all the way back wiht some coffee.

Awesome news, Scrappy! You should have ginger cake or a shake or something to celebrate.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
The work stuff I could not do this weekend becuase I coud not get a connection? The stuff I had never bee told to do or which part to potentially do? The stuff I emailed my boss about and said I could not log on, but here are all the relevent emails? The stuff he never gave me any direction on and, in fact, has done all or part of the prep in the past? that stuff?
Yeah, at 9am after I had emailed asking what he still needed me to do because I could not find any of the files. when he saw me, he said "What do you have done".
I am not sure deer in the headlights captures what my face looked like.
I finished updating one of the powerpoint presentations in 2 hours, in time for his big whig meeting. The other one I am still waiting on updated slides from people, so I had to upload a half-done one.
He wants to meet with me at 4. If the meeting is bad, I just refuse to own any part of it. And I am buting a "USE YOUR WORDS" t-shirt.

ION, I think I've sent the entire IT department into a tizzy because my new iPhone was delivered last week and I'm not planning on coming to the office to pick it up until Wednesday.

There is no real flavor equivalent, but corn syrup should work.
