I’ll eat an extra Paczki to keep the universal balance intact.
Yessssss!
I, however, am going to have some dry toast.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

This is totally a reboot! The planet should go back on-line later today!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Can't believe it took us this long to try turning it off and turning it back on again.
I hate working in my current office, but the baristas at the in-office cafe are the best and today they had complimentary iced green tea with lime and honey and it is AMAZING. It's not too sweet and the honey is perfectly balanced by the tea and lime and I want to keep drinking it forever.

Iced green tea with lime and honey sounds amazing!
I am trying Zatarain's box o' red beans and rice in the microwave with freeze-dried andouille. It's ok. At least I didn't burn the rice this time, but it's a little crunchy somehow. Could a used another minute or two cooking, maybe. I might have gone a little overboard on the sausage but that's how I roll, really.
Autocorrect wants andouille to be ratatouille. Weird little hole in the spell check.

I mean, several total eclipses in the recent past, but maybe annular over Antarctica is the key...
