Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

I want a Cuban sandwich. I have no justification for buying a Panini press for myself. I had one in a diner style restaurant (Denny's, IHOP, I don't know) and it was wonderful, but none of the places around me seem to have it anymore. Bah.

I should be starting dinner, but instead I'm sitting on the couch watching Sesame Street with ltc.

Do you have a waffle iron, Connie?

Or an iron?

Or two cast iron skillets? Maybe even one cast iron and a larger one made of something else. I think that would work.

I'm in problem-solving mode now.

Our wings are not tired.

It was Chinese for lunch, and leftover Chinese for dinner. I may have to pretend tomorrow is sandwich day.

not your mom's socks.

I celebrated with leftovers.

Can I just say that having a political tweet go viral gets you the best art projects from everywhere. (No. Really not the best. NOT the best at all. Block block report report gahhhh)

Also I'm trying to not imagine my happy laugh if all those people RT/liking would buy a book.

Connie, it's not a panini press, but I think I have one of those sandwich makers I never use if you want it.

I have none of the items listed, -t, though I did have two irons, which I gleefully got rid of because ironing destroys my soul. Perhaps when my budget has recovered a bit from the costs of moving and setting up a new household. A George Foreman grill type thing is actually useful.

That would be very gracious indeed, sj. Profile addy is good, I'll happily pay for shipping.

I'll try to dig it out of the pantry tomorrow.

I have escaped Comcast, and now they're trying to chase me down. First they claimed I didn't return the equipment. $190 fee for that.

Now it's an early termination fee on the contract. The person on the phone explained to me that because I moved out of their service area, I have to pay a $160 fee. I tried explaining to her that contracts don't really work like that, or no one would ever sign a service contract.

Now I'm waiting on hold for a supervisor. Estimated time, 15-30 minutes.
