Amyth, much luck to your brother. I hope it all works out.
And to you, Zenkitty--I know what it's like to hate your job. In fact, one of my Rules to Live By* is: Life is too short to be miserable at work.
- other rules include: "Never miss an opportunity to pee or get water." And "People are stupid." And "Sometimes people are poopyheads and you have to wear a toilet-paper hat." And, newly coined today: "Be nice to people because you never know when someone might be on Nick Mamatas' friendslist, and then you will be screwed." (Nick Mamatas is a widely-read blogger--nihilistic_kid on LJ--who is a friend of the blogger who got plagiarized by Cooks Source: he broke the story first after her LJ post.)
Anyway, someone needs to tell me what to have for dinner. Should I cook pasta? Or go to the Italianesque restaurant around the corner and get a salad and a glass of wine? Go to the pizza shop? Eat cold cereal? I Require Guidance!
Salad and a glass of wine unless the idea of going back out makes you weep, in which case pasta.
I'm doing laundry so I can pack a bag for the weekend. I still need to make dinner. I probably should make a salad to use up more produce before I go.
Well, this night's good news is at least the cramps held off until I was home and could apply alcohol. Poor Loki only got a 10 minute walk, but since it was wet and gross out, he wasn't as adventurous.
The Cooks Source story is nuts. How to run a magazine without ever learning basic principles of journalism: she can show you how!
The cats keep wanting to go out in the rain. Brains the size of walnuts, man.
I had salad and hummus for lunch, then salad and pizza for dinner. Pizza, not at all healthy, but the rest was. I am trying to start eating better and hoping that between that and yardwork that I might drop another 5 lbs by the end of the year.
Some idiot on Facebook posted a link to some gibberish about Obama's trip to India costing $400 million dollars and how he's going to be living in luxury with an entourage of 3,000 people and 34 warships and how wasteful it is so he can witness the Festival of Lights while everyday Americans are cutting their expenses.
I fucking hate stupid fucking people.
Oh, msbelle, I meant to say that video went in the mail today. Just FYI.

I personally would love it if he arrived at all foreign engagements at the head of 34 warships. Meanwhile, I'm surprised the link didn't claim that the holds of the warships were stuffed with a shipment of American jobs.
