Shit's all sorts of different now.

Well now make us your work! Only with less pay and (usually) less demands!

In very first world problems, I was dithering between take-away California rolls or spicy California rolls. I thought, "The California rolls were a touch bland, and supermarket sushi isn't going to be that spicy." So I got the spicy.

I'm currently pausing in my sushi eating to let my taste buds recover from whatever that is so I can taste the rest of my dinner.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I imagine when the chef made your sushi, he was thinking, "I say we nuke the tongue from orbit. It's the only way to be sure."

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

I think I might be developing a shrimp allergy - this is the second time I've noticed my mouth itching after eating them. BOO HISS DO NOT WANT.

And just when I was close to perfecting my shrimp taco recipe! (Tonight's new trick, deglazing the frying pan with tequila, then tossing the shrimp in the pan sauce. SERIOUS NOMS.)

Hmph, I can't find it, msbelle. But I'm a little braindead.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

That reminds me, they've just hauled up seven giant crustaceans (foot-long amphipods) off New Zealand. [link]

The casita is adorable. I want to go vacation there.

I have 100 papers left to grade before third period tomorrow. Boo. Hiss.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

That's ridic, JZ.

Boo, shrimp allergy!

Must be the night for hot food, because my pork carnitas tonight were pretty spicy. Mostly because I forgot the SO had made this batch of salsa hotter for our guest, and I added my adobo as a rub. Anyway. Hot. But very tasty.

I pulled the trigger on the casita, yay vacation! And not a craptacular non-break like our furlough turned out to be. (This is actually because of that; we met with the sponsoring church during the worst part of that trip. We didn't ask for this, but apparently he went back and said, dudes, let's send them on vacation.)
