Jen, you are cracking me up. I will go back there one of these days and ask about the Spanish sauce, just for you.
Awesome! (Or should I say, awesomesauce? No, is too much.)
I hope you enjoyed what you did order.

That's bananas.
And he had a big family with a bunch of older siblings, and I don't remember their name at all. Doesn't ring any bells! I need to ask my siblings this weekend.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I just snapped at a coworker, but SERIOUSLY. "If you are relinquishing the ticket, let us work it. If you have a better idea of what should be done, do it yourself. If you only have things you think I shouldn't do, leave it alone. If I am going around in circles, I AM GOOD WITH THAT. We are not going around in circles. That stopped when you dumped your job on us." (eta: that's not venting, that's what I just told him to get him to leave my desk)
I am *furious* at him. Same guy who threw me under the bus yesterday with a ticket that was his job and he was pushing back onto IT, and now when IT has it, he's telling me what to not do. SOLVE the problem or fuck off. You are not remotely as helpful as you think you are.
Now's a good time to go find some lunch.

Oh, this is a neat essay about genderqueerdom and doing traditionally-gendered pursuits while being genderqueer. It's very enthusiastic and cheerful and empowering, with lots of great photos.

I'm not sure I can make it past:
There is masculine and feminine energy in the world; that electricity that runs through you when you open a jar of pickles on the first try, or when you look in the mirror and feel pretty. I’m not arguing against that.
I disagree with too many axioms to derive great worth from what I've read so far. Maybe later.
I do not remember what this sandwich is supposed to be, but there's a fuck of a lot of white creaminess. Hmm.

ita--no, you're right in that that there's still some gender essentialism there: why should sparkly nails be associated more with women than men, and strength more with men than women?
But I still liked the overall tone, that being bounded by fixed concepts is wrong and here's some ways that people are resisting.
