My boss just wrote me a nice rec for another gig related to work, but advisory work. I have to read/edit/print and bring to her for a signature. It makes me feel like Read-from-the-hall to read nice things about myself.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I just saw that, tommy, and I think it is in fact the cutest commercial ever.

Bob just discovered I'd left a burner on. WTF, Brain?!

I did that just the other night! M discovered it just before we went to sleep. Scary. I couldn't believe I'd just forgotten about it.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Barking dogs commercial, very cute. Love the Chewbacca dog.

I left a burner on today too! I NEVER do that. Weird.

Punishingly Intricate

I couldn't believe I'd just forgotten about it.

I know! I don't think I've ever done this before in my life!

If it was just me at home I totally would have left the pots on the stove until morning if not until I got home in the evening tomorrow. sheesh!

Anyway, now I'm making steel cut crockpot oats to bring to work for a breakfast potluck tomorrow. I hope it works out! I've never done this recipe before. (And if it does work out I hope people appreciate it!)

Leaving burners on (the wrong burner, with something flammable on it) is how I set my parents' kitchen on fire 3 times before I was 16. This is why I prefer gas to electric.

I'm just watching Parenthood and there's the best scene with Lauren Graham at the OBGYN she says,

"I thought 40 was the new 30"

and the doctor replies "Not for your ovaries."

Oh man. yes.

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

This is why I prefer gas to electric.

Wait, isn't a gas burner left on more likely to cause a fire?

Magnetic induction all the way, baby!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

You can see a gas burner is on more easily than electric. But, obviously, magnetic induction is awesome.
