Pine Nut Mouth.

This sounds like something my journal would publish an article about.

It's probably because I never tried the B grade before this.

I find this whole thing suspect. But now I'm reminded that I have maple syrup, FROM CANADIANA, that therefore didn't cost an arm and a leg, and so I should make waffles or pancakes soon.

For some reason, my family's pretty obsessive about maple syrup. It's the foodstuff we're most likely to import to Jamaica.

Leverage's John Rodgers may have found a new writer.

"Fuckneck" really is pretty awesome.

Man, I've been on hold with the bank for forever.

speaking of jackhole banks. I set up a bill pay wrong, I realize now that I did, but the payment was TOOOO a chase account. So when they took my money and couldn't easily figure out where it was supposed to go, did they call me? send an email? return the payment? Nope, they say they cut a check and mailed it. The payee hasn't received it. PITA. REALLY a PITA because it was $10K!! I am preparing myself to go to a branch in person today to rip some assholes.

Pine Nuts May Be To Blame For That Bitter Aftertaste

I had a mild case, but it wasn't pleasant and I will never buy pine nuts again without checking the origin.

OK, y'all, I have to write my self-evaluation and need HELP!!

I am trying to say that "you better give me a promotion or I am OUT OF HERE", while saying "I did more work than I had to every month except this one when I'm taking 2 weeks vacation, and rocked my project, and while the audit DID find some stuff at the one site, that's because it's a HUGEASS site, and I did my best, and the big stuff I'd already done what I could, and since then I've been kicking their ass to fix the rest". And "my project is ending in two months after a year and a half on it, so when I get a new project it better be a promotion and awesomeness".

But I also need to list "strengths" with comments and examples. (My weakness I listed was sending things to the files. Which is my big task for today because they're LATE).

As if on cue, Kelly just called to ask me what I want from TJ's. I may have to go through the lists above to broaden my usual requests.

I have to write my self-evaluation too, and boy do I hate this process. "My work has been as awesome as ever, except for that mistake I made last spring, and then when I did it again, but hey, I told you I wouldn't be good at that particular thing and you made me do it anyway, so isn't it really your fault too? Let's just move past this and concentrate on how awesome I've been lately."

"Zenkitty -- now with 20% more awesome!"

Today is not starting out well. Ho hum.

Did you spend 3 hours in urgent care, including an hour with an antibiotic IV drip?

Or was that just me?

(I'm fine, though I have a teensy infection going from the port surgery)
