I'm sorry, Gud.

Successfully got myself out to lunch! I will have to eat out every meal for the rest of the week to maximize my Restaurant Week menu sampling. Got it all planned out, we'll see if I can actually pull it off. Should also help with that whole having dishes to wash thing.

After a day spent on a Stephen King movie set, it's turned into a sunny, sparkly day.

Of course, it's going to snow tonight, into the commute in the morning. Why must it always snow during the commute?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Is it wrong that I think those Frugaltwerps are kinda cheating by deducting their mortgage payment from their monthly expenses?

Which okay, speaking of not frugal, I took a walk today with my son to go to a local cafe and pick up some fancy juices. Walk was nice, juice was delicious, but I always find the price tag a bit baffling. How can fresh pressed juices be so much money?! Although it's kind of worth it to get my son to go on a 45 minute walk.

Because people will pay that price for them.

Connie nails the capitalist system.

I got my bread made last night: it came out nice. Overslept, ran in the woods with the dog and got very muddy, but got home before the rain started. Now I should be doing paperwork, argh. And I was going to run errands but I'm kind of broke...

It is kind of a lot of work, and takes a surpassing quantity of fruit/glass, when I squeeze my own.

Wrod.

ION, I have over 5 weeks of vacation now. And work has a policy of no more than a week off at any time. I see several three-day weekends in my future.
