And I've got to do my xmas shopping this weekend and bake and I'm just screwed.
In more amusing news, when I left work, much of the younger IT staff was sprawled with abandon on floors and chairs in one of the cube rooms. Seems there were jello shots and chocolate cake shots and I'm betting some don't go home until morning and call in tomorrow. Heh. I don't drink at work things, especially not work things in the middle of the day.
Is that like Swedish for "and your little dog too!"?
And FUCKING OB.
Erm, I may have rage issues tonight.

That or "and the horse you rode in on!"
I think I need a drink now.
I thought sorrel was a vegetable! You made a drink out of it, ita?
A college friend of mine objected to the phallocentrism of "suck my dick" so adopted "suck my left tittie" complete with hand gestures. Not something I wanted to use (wouldn't use the former really either) but it pops to mind at inappropriate times. Because she used it so much, it is burned into my brain.
In Jamaica we call a kind of hibiscus sorrel. We make a rum drink out of it at Christmas. In Mexico they drink something similar non-alcoholic year round called Agua De Jamaica. Apparently the Sudanese make a syrupy sweet drink out of it. I think my mother knows how everyone cooks everything we cook in Jamaica.
It's the zing in those Zinger teas, I believe.
