There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

P-C, that's great news! Much recovery~ma to your grandfather.

You are all evil. Now I really want challah bread french toast.

What is everyone doing this weekend?

We're going to a wedding of a friend tonight, and then staying overnight at the beach (which is closer to the wedding location. Tomorrow we're having a Palm Sunday brunch with my family because we will be spending Easter with TCG's family.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

it would make the great basis for a southwest breakfast bake

Sounds yummy to me. I don't think Hermes cares whether I mix meat and dairy.

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

TJs has a brioche bread that makes a fine challah substitute for the purpose of making French toast. I imagine it'd make a wonderful bread pudding as well.

Oh, I forgot to share this one. A few days ago, I was complaining to my officemate about something with the class I'm teaching -- a section of the book that I'm required to cover, but I really don't see why I'm required to cover it, and I feel like it's taking time away from more important material. He asked why I'm teaching it if I don't think it's important. I said, because I'm following the way the department says I'm supposed to teach this course. He started singing "Tradition."

Okay, you know what, Hil? I'll PAY Vortex's parking ticket if she double parks and beats officemate senseless.

If I could, I would try to change to a different office, but the office that I'm in now is a four-person office, with only the two of us usually there, and all the other offices have between five and seven people, with almost all of them usually there, and I know that I can't get any work done in an office with that many people. I can say, "I'm trying to work, so I need quiet now" when there's only one other person in the office, but I really can't if there are six other people.

Yes, but think of it-- if Vortex beats officemate senseless, then you have the office all to yourself. You don't have to tell anyone. Just prop him up in a chair, ala Weekend at Bernies. Tie some strings to his hands so that he can wave occasionally as someone passes by.

I think it'll work.

Seconded.

OK. Now I must go buy Passover food, deposit my paychecks and tax refund checks, and figure out where Flat Stanley should visit. (My university refuses to use direct deposit for our checks. So each month, I've got to walk over the pay office building, get my check there, and then walk over to the bank to deposit it. And of course, I never remember until it's the day my rent is due and the office is already closed for the day.)
