Happy Thursday

My day got off to a rollicking start.  Before I had even managed to pull a mug out for coffee, I grabbed a Gladware container of rice dressing in the fridge to move it.  Then I dropped it. Of course, I did.  Here’s where it gets bad.  The last one to eat from it had not placed the top back on securely, so my feet and floor were covered in rice dressing at 6:00 AM before coffee.  And I hurled a huge cuss out at the universe.  And I’m not going to name any names, but I was not the last person to eat from that container, and I only live with two other mammals, one of whom does not have opposable thumbs and won’t eat anything but IAMS Adult Formula dry cat food.  So, you know, you don’t have to be Encyclopedia Brown to figure out who got the stink-eye very early this morning.  Happy Thursday, y’all!

Happy Thursday- Part Deux

I have been seriously slacking in the laundry department.  I had thrown a load into the washer last night, thinking I’d throw it in the dryer this morning, go to class, and fold it when I returned.  Smart, eh?  Sure, until you realize that every bra you own is sitting in the washer, and you’ve got to leave in 15 minutes.  People, a cotton bra will not dry in 15 minutes; therefore, I went to class in a really, really damp (bordering on wet) bra.  I have no shame.  Happy Thursday!

This is another cute place along my walk to class. They recently redid the entire outside, making it very Craftsman. I like it, but they went a bit overboard on the landscaping and porch decorating for my taste. Still, it does look 1000% better since the makeover.

You ought to be careful taking pictures of people’s houses. Somebody’s gonna come running out with a rake and chase you down the street. :) I know!  I’m just a trainwreck waiting to happen between the jaywalking and stalkerazzi home pics.  On the plus side, if you read any headlines like, “Louisiana Woman Run Over While Jaywalking to Avoid Homeowner Chasing Her With Rake,” you’ll know I’ve found my 15 minutes of fame.

Some say the glass is half full, some say the glass is half empty. I say “Are you gonna drink that?”

Things That Make My Day

In the lobby of the building where my class is held, which is technically the business and finance hall, there was a guy playing music at full volume from his laptop while he practiced a dance routine.  But I was on a five minute break and couldn’t sit down on the couch to watch him and applaud at the end.  So that kinda sucked.

It worries me that I look at this housecoat and think, “If I bought that, I’d never get dressed again! I could stay inside and tumble all day, yet still be clothed for any unexpected visitors!” There is something wrong with me that I’d ever even consider crossing the line into housecoats.

This Is My Life

At the nail salon:

  • The owner shoved the phone into my face, and said, “You talk to her!” in the middle of a conversation with a caller asking for directions.  The caller was having problems with owner Lisa’s accent.  (Lisa, obvs, is not the owner’s real name.  It’s the name she use so that we Americans don’t have to try and pronounce her Vietnamese name.)  Like whuuut?  Dude, I don’t even talk on my own phone!
  • My pedicurist said, “OHHHHHHH?  What happened?” while pointing at three large bruises on my right calf.  And I, literally, have no idea where those bruises came from.  I am such a klutz that I don’t even bother trying to keep up with the daily havoc I wreak on my body and clothing.
  • She also pointed at my face and asked, “You want an eyebrow wax?  You need it!”

I can’t make this stuff up, people.  It’s what happens to me all day.  Every day.  When I leave the house.  And now you know why I am in training to become a hermit. The end.

Bingo,

chuffedlittlemuffin:

I didn’t realize you were actually going to grad school (maybe I should have). So it wasn’t meant to be directed to you in particular. There are good things about grad school. Today was just a particularly bad day (there have been quite a few, including but not limited to panic attacks, sobbing, and literal rending of garments). But it is, I guess, a lot better than many other things. And really I have learned a lot, which I appreciate immensely. And met good people. But it will fuck you up sometimes.

So go! Enjoy it. And bitch about it on Tumblr.

She speaks the truth.  I, too, have experienced all of the bolded portions.  The rest is truth, as well.  It’s just hard to remember it sometimes when you’re in the thick of it.  Thankfully, I am almost done.  Three more short weeks.  Thank you, Baby Jesus!

Holy Moley!

No s**t, that etouffee over fried eggplant may well be the best gosh darned thing that has ever come out of my kitchen.  I need to thank D.C.’s in Eunice, Louisiana, for the inspiration.  They have this as an appetizer on their menu but, dude!  Theirs is delicious.  Mine was orgasmic!  Even the Zandy said so.
