Both takaza and I were dragging a bit last night (I didn’t sleep well the night before). I played a bit of Ratchet and Clank, which provides a nice catharsis (getting close to the end, I think, but I’ll probably take a few days’ break from it while we have company). I sauteed up some chicken breasts and we had a quick dinner while linnaeus picked up rasslor at the airport without incident. We spent the rest of the evening hanging out, chatting, and watching the latest episode of The Amazing Race. Then it was off to bed and a much better night’s sleep.
Things are chugging along here at work today. It sounds like Dan is feeling a bit under the weather today – I hope he feels better after a nap at lunch. He may or may not be joining us for LAFF Coffee tonight, but Rasslor, Linnaeus (his employer willing, as usual), and I hope to be there. I hope that we’ll be able to show Rasslor a couple of fun “locals-only” places while he’s up in Chicago. Hey Brophey, any uniquely Midwestern souvenir we should send back with your bear? 🙂
Ah heh. Most of them are food. 🙂
Cheese curds!

God I love that fastfood pizza.
Umm. Yeah. That’s about it. I’ve got nothing else. 🙂 It’s also been, what, close to 8 years since I’ve lived there? 🙂
Y’all have fun. Us here in the south will bask in our warm weather. (Is 45 degrees warm?)
Heh…we had to introduce to cheese curds weekend before last. I think he approved 😉
Well, it’s probably a product of me living in Madison, WI most of my life… the supermarket walls paved with cheese…
Anyway, I can’t believe he’s never had cheese curds. If I had known that, I’d have brought them to him every time I visited him. 🙂
Actually, I should clarify. I think he’d had cheese curds before, but we had to introduce him to battered, deep-fried curds 😉
Actually, I haven’t had cheese curds before. Scaaaaarrrrryyyy!
I found that episode of Amazing race hard to swallow literally. Of all the episodes I have seen that one was amongst the most lowbrow cutthroat episodes I ever saw.
It was blatently unfair, To ask the contestants to eat 4lbs of meat was totally out of line. Not everyone is a big eater and 4lbs is asking too much. CBS should be ashamed that they took a good show and nearly flushed it down the crapper by trying to be like fear factor.
