City of Suisun City

How the heck does one pronounce Suisun, anyway?

Have spent all the money, today. Feeling a little guilty, though--I went to the hairdresser's, and got a cut, and also bought some hair product. But they use square, so when I went to sign, it was suggesting a tip on the whole amount, and when I tried to do the math on just the haircut, I messed it up (I mean, I tipped $6 instead of $8, but still).

Then there was picking up the packet for my Beat the Blerch 10K (run by The Oatmeal) tomorrow and of COURSE I had to also buy a mug and a shirt and some stickers. And then I went to Sephora...so dangerous. I keep wanting ALL the makeup.

Suh-soon. I thinks it's a French spelling of an Ohlone word? But I'm probably making that up.

10K! I like the way you casually slip that in. Go meara!

This last glass of wine from the bottle is cloudy and maybe sour? Definitely different from the previous glass. Is that lees?

Job search looks..I finally UCLA to wake up, and they've finally called my last reference (another unanimously good one).

In the meanwhile I told my most pushy recruiter I was desperate, and she offered me a job $5/hr less than my minimum, and told me they don't like jobhoppers. I hope this is an embarrassment of riches that pans out one way or another. I'm not even sure what the second one does, but I'd take it if I can't get UCLA. I just hope they'd take me.

So please send UCLA first, other place second, vibes in my direction could you?

My TiVo(s) gone haywire. The channel lineup is totally different and I can't find any of my shows. On either box. Is this something you call TWC for? Or TiVo?

All the vibes I can send, ita.

IDEK with the TiVo. Weird. Start with TiVo and escalate to TWC?

I do not know what to have for dinner. The only thing I have thawed is beef in the style of carne asada which I feel wholly inadequate to spice right now. I suppose I could do a salad, but that seems like a lot of chopping. Maybe I can cook something from frozen? But what? And how?

Vibes ita!

Carne asada - cook with frozen veggies. serve onto tortillas, wraps, or bread as you please in a microwave or oven safe plate depending upon whether you have a microwave. Melt cheese over the whole thing in microwave (for preference) or oven. Spice with chile powder if that appeals or salsa if you have some and that appeals, or spice as you like.

I do not have frozen veggies, tortillas, wraps, bread, salsa, or chile powder. But thanks for trying.

I wish I had some chopped liver, frankly. That sounds really good.

Maybe an omelet would do?

job~ma, ita!

Aha! Found some emergency salami and cheese. Perfect.

Our dinner was "Hey, what's leftover in the fridge? Let's throw it in a pot!" (Mostly beans, tomatoes, and corn.) With a tamale to round out the plate, because it went with the beans/tomatoes/corn combo.
