Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Not that I don't eat ramen, but I'm aware that I'm one culinary step above eating salted cardboard when I do.

Oh, I'm right there with you. I just really like the texture.

Because books.

But I've never had the real ones! So all I know is I like what's called ramen in the little plastic-wrapped packs.

Seriously, all of you fly to New York right now and I will have Yoshie take you out for real Japanese ramen TONIGHT. Or better yet, let's all fly to Osaka and eat ramen there.

I like this plan. Where do we keep our private jet?

I'm afraid if we go to Japan, I will not be able to eat anything but sushi. ALL OF THE SUSHI.

I could eat some ramen right now.

In completely different news, this video is gut-wrenching. A woman who took a picture of herself every day for a year, during a horrible year in her life. The transformation is incredible and heart-breaking. (Some of the images might be disturbing, or triggery for abuse, I guess? Just a warning.)

Instead of having really for real ramen, or delicious fake ramen (look, it's noodle soup, even if it's cheap and substandard noodle soup it's pretty good), I am making myself something out of the four things that the handy dandy Still Tasty app says are the most past their best by date in my kitchen (that I haven't already been inspired to toss due to mold or whatever) - a tortilla, tomato paste, garlic cloves, and muenster cheese.

That settles it, I'm going to the ramen bar on 57th St for lunch tomorrow. YOU ARE ALL INVITED TO JOIN ME.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I was going to take the soup I made to work for lunch tomorrow, but I think the tupperware is also packed.
