Ran out of that on Saturday and now she will not touch her regular chow.

Good morning, Buffistas.
Did you floss?
Did you mail that thing?
Did you take your meds?
Does anybody else miss the Mayor? 'I just want to be a big snake.'

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yes.
No.
Yes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I still feel like crap this morning, but it's in-office sort of crap, so you're off the hook, bon. I'm indulging myself with a red velvet cupcake (isn't this supposed to taste like chocolate? It doesn't taste like chocolate) and fancy blueberry/cassis tea (found a tea store in the mall near me--Lupicia). It's a start. Only a start. I feel incredibly light-headed. I need to be coherent by 9. Oops.
But I was clear-headed for the drive in. That was safe. And I feel a clean conscience about honking at the car in front of me for stopping at a green light. That's annoying. I get to be annoyed. He doesn't get to make hand gestures back at me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
isn't this supposed to taste like chocolate?
Not really.

But wikipedia says:
It is usually prepared as a layer cake somewhere between vanilla and chocolate in flavor
And my understanding was that it was a chemical reaction with the cocoa that made it red. I no taste no cocoa.

I read that this morning! Pumpkins! Metaphors! If only it also referenced semi-colons, it might be the perfect comic.
And artificially seasonal food!

Because books.
I had red velvet cake a week ago and it was just really sweet. Although that might have been the super-sweet icing. Didn't taste like chocolate to me, either.

It's somewhat cocoa-ish, but not a chocolate cake, is all. I think that's usually what people don't like about it. And the red is food coloring.

Today's students are basically flat-out refusing to do work. Their teacher is going to get quite the note.
ALSO, my brother linked me this recipe for mint chocolate chip cookies and I am very excited to give them a try. They look GLORIOUS.
