Maybe you could find a cat that would mix you a cocktail, Jess?
I'm thinking about dinner, and am not interested in the thing I had planned. Hmph.
Tell me more good stuff about me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Then you should do the other thing instead.

I don't know what the other thing is! And I have this thawed chicken I have to cook! Maybe I'll make the chicken now and eat it later. I didn't actually get all of the right ingredients anyway.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Book ogling is always a viable option to me, Jess.

I'm glad when I ordered last night's Thai food delivery, that I had to get two dinners (damn minimum order for delivery!), so now I have ginger chicken waiting in the fridge.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm watching Planet Green. They just said that cutting 20% of the meat out of your diet will cut greenhouse gases or carbon emissions or something as much as switching from a regular car to a hybrid. And to show how easy it is to cut out 20% of the meat from your diet, they showed trays with (I think) 16 hamburger patties, cut off half of one patty, and said that if you don't eat that half patty, but still eat the rest, then you've eliminated 20% of the meat from your diet!

If an ad you saw had a polar bear prominently going into an ice cave with "hibernate" on the label, what would you immediate thought be?
My first thought was "beer commercial."

I tip on takeout because it's usually taking time for whoever is handling it. But usually 10 percent instead of the 20 I'd tip for sit down. It may help that it's usually work money and not my money, but.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That's...not math.

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

Okay, granted - I was not a math major like you, but I don't think that's right.
DH and I have decided to try going vegetarian 2 nights a week to save money. (Semi-vegetarian, anyway - the lentil soup I'm making this weekend will still have pancetta as a flavor base.) We'll see how it goes.
