Congratulations, Zen!
I went for drinks with a coworker tonight and learned that she's planning to leave the org. in a couple of months, probably, which does improve my chances of getting hired permanently...
And now to bed.

I do notice that the Brits seem to (noticeably in the baking show, but I've seen others) all about passion fruit, which is something I feel you never see in the US.
The best dessert I ever had was passion fruit mousse in chocolate cups with a sprig of mint on top. Alas, my own attempt to make passion fruit mousse belonged in the horrible cooking disaster category.

Hey. New board.
Cookie presses are really for cheese straws.

Because books.
My mom makes cookie press cookies every Christmas, but she uses the butter pretzel recipe instead of the spritz, and they are little tree-shaped bites of buttery heaven.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I will give my boss credit for something: I sent out a piece of work yesterday that I don't really feel good about. If she had seen a draft, she probably would have agreed and helped me work to make it better. Since she only saw it after it was done, she said it was good. So that's nice!

The Yahoo bookmarks on my new computer such large balls. What do people use in their browsers to manage bookmarks? I'd like something that I can click on to just see a list of them without having to go to a website and search through them.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Congratulations, Zen!
ION, my boss is listening to the Netanyahu speech to Congress. What sort of angry punk music shall I listen to so I don't have to hear him?

Zen! Congratulations! That's so great!
Can I come crash with you if I lose my house? Not that that is in the offing, it's just a constant worry in the back of my head.
Way to go, Calli with the biscuit-making! I love making one or two biscuits in the toaster oven. So satisfying. I'm not even sure other people would think my biscuits are really good, but hot from the oven they do the job.
Stayed at my Mom's last night, which was nice except since they got their eucalyptus trimmed the streetlight shines into the guest bedroom all night long. I'm so tired. But I have an appointment to get my haircut at lunchtime, I'm sure that will perk me up.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Can I come crash with you if I lose my house?
Not that that's going to happen, but if it does, you certainly can, -t! I'll hang a heavier curtain in the spare room so the streetlight doesn't shine in on you all night long.
