Pointless Announcements
I have never heard of them before.
It's like Marble Slab, but it's been around longer.

hrrm, what?
Was that a joke because I failed to capitalize marble?
lol
No really what is it? The name intrigues me.
Oh, I meant its like Coldstone.

Oh. That makes so much more sense.
Yes, I imagine it does.

Did you hear the part where I asked him what kind of bagel he wanted, though?
I recently found out that my boss from the first job I had at Taco Bell was laid off after she's been in the hospital recovering from a surgery and her FMLA ran out and she couldn't go back for the hours they needed her to. She's been with the company for 19 years. I don't even know how long she's been the general manager, but it's since before I ever worked there and long after I quit. I can't even believe that bullshit.

Do other mums of young bubs find it hard to stay shaved and moisturised and plucked? Because I'm a hairy dry mess at the moment.
Yeah, that's normal.
Tuffy the Dump Truck may rarely increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke. The risk may be greater if you have heart disease or increased risk for heart disease (for example, due to smoking, family history of heart disease, or conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes), or with longer use. Tuffy should not be taken right before or after heart bypass surgery. Also, Tuffy may infrequently cause serious (rarely fatal) bleeding from the stomach or intestines. This effect can occur without warning symptoms at any time while taking Tuffy. Older adults may be at higher risk for this effect. (See also Precautions and Drug Interactions sections.) Stop taking Tuffy and get medical help right away if you notice any of the following rare but serious side effects: bloody or black/tarry stools, persistent stomach/abdominal pain, vomit that looks like coffee grounds, chest/jaw/left arm pain, shortness of breath, unusual sweating, weakness on one side of the body, sudden vision changes, slurred speech. Ask your doctor if Tuffy is right for you.
Good.

mine aren't even young any more and there are time I still find myself without the time.
Also, things did not go as planned this evening. Show sold out, and I completely lost it on a tow truck driver that tried to take our truck.
Then we had fish and chips.
Tickets for tomorrow nights show bought.
Snowflakes, seriously? Fuck you, spring, moodier than me.
Last night was... amazing. Made a lot of really bad decisions (I, uh... I tried a wee bit of coke. Didn't feel a thing, except bad about it.), danced with a girl, made out, traveled between Austin and San Antonio, got laid, and now I'm on one hour of sleep ready to do it all over again. It's 11, and these guys are drinking whiskey. Jeeeeezus.

Stay away from the bad drugs, mang.
Other than that, ^5.

Yeah, my justification was "I'm only young and stupid once, so I should take the opportunity to experiment, and I'm doing it with two of the most trustworthy people I know." It came out alright, but yeah, not doing it again.

I'm not judging.
The worst night of my life started off with me finding a pill on the floor of a strip club.

Seems like it would be hard to judge much if one has a story in their history that begins with that sentence. ha.
Last night sucked. The only upside is if the show hadn't been sold out the truck would have been completely gone when we got out at two am.
There was no sign saying tow away zone at the driveway we entered the lot, nor anywhere near our vision where we parked. Just one sign on the other end that the guy pointed out after we were all what the hell?
The dick made James pay him $182 to unhook the truck. Which is when I began cursing the sons of his sons to the tenth generation.
I felt ridiculous cursing the earth he walked upon while dolled up in a lacy pink mini dress and sash and curls and it just fanned the flames of my temper even more.
I sort of don't want to go to the show tonight now, but we already have the tickets.
In a completely childish move I stole the sign that was on the other side of the lot before we drove away.
Precisely.
I am proud of you.

Eating alone is boring.
I am proud of you.
They're vultures running a racket.
we were gone all of fifteen minutes tops, this is what pissed me off the most. They had to be watching, as there was no time for anything except hooking it up. They probably watched us walk away and swooped in, rather than saying 'hey you can't park there.'
The sign was a plastic one on a temporary stake in the dirt half hidden by a bush, not metal and not embedded in the concrete. I wouldn't be surpised if he put it in the ground after we walked away.
I was yelling at him about being a gangster at one point, puts his hands on someones property and demands payment because he touched it.
We should all walk around with signs hidden on our backs that say "Anything I touch I keep" then make people pay us when we grab their things and don't seen the notice.
Now I have two tickets to this thing and no one to go with me.
Ah well.
My girlfriend might still be able to go, waiting for her to call back.
The thing is though, it was a city worker in a city truck! Not some random tow lot owner or worker.
I would have taken that sign even if it had been a permanent metal one, I thought it was going to be when I headed over to it.
The really nice part of last night was we discovered the best little fish and chips place I have ever been to, and wouldn't have had we not been turned away at the door of the other thing.
I had fresh rice floured fried halibut and sweet potato fries and a cup of the best crab and pepper soup I have ever tasted and a delicious IPA.
On the menu the soup was listed as Voted Portland Best Soup and I have to say it was probably one of the best soups I have ever had. filled to the brim with crab and spicy.
I will be going back there just for the soup I know, but also i have to try the other things on the menu. They had catfish tacos with spicy coleslaw I want to try next time.
That's our girl!
Didn't manage to find anyone to go with me tonight, did get invited to be a third wheel for my friend and her husbands date night, however.
James isn't home so so much for that, told him I was going to see if I could find a girlfriend to go as he wasn't really wanting to go now, didn't want to spend even more money after the whole truck thing, but that if I couldn't find anyone I would still like him and I to go. He went to put a wire fence up for my mom on the other side of the city and is still there, no way he will be back in time.
I'm going to walk to the store and buy myself some IPA and order a pizza and rent a movie to watch with the kids.
James called to check on the kids and was disappointed when I answered. I guess we miscommunicated and thought I had found some girls to go out with and wouldn't be here.
Can't be too annoyed about that I suppose.

Did you know, there is quite a bit you can tell from the way a persons eyes dilate when the speak to you? arousal, sincerity... lying.
Unfortunately, you cannot see the eyes over the phone.

This sounds delicious. It's breakfast now and I would rather have any of this stuff than anything else.
Monday morning.
Hmpf.

It was all seriously amazing. I can't stop thinking about that soup.
Finally switching to antibiotics every 12 hours, not 8. I can wake up at my normal time tomorrow and make up for all the lost sleep while I had a stuffy nose.
Great, now we have a houseguest that snores like he's Ritt making engine noises.

Mmmbrrmm
I'm late but I used to own a very small car and have also driven big ass trucks and SUVs. I hate driving tall cars. Like the fucking Honda Element. It's like driving a small ambulance and I always feel like they're gonna flip when I make a speedy turn. I could stop making speedy turns but I'd rather not. And with others I feel like I'm wearing huge clown shoes and just about to crush everyone around me.
Anyway, I've never minded the small rental cars.
What the fuck, Tuffy. You're all up in my personal space. Give me some breathing room.

I need to learn how to write musicals so I can write NASCAR: The Musical.
You can't just say shit like that and then not write it.
Some people get their hopes up.
Sounds a lot like my Friday. I also feel guilty drinking soda these days. It's just too stimulating, you know?

Man, I love that movie. Stereotypes and all.
He probably had too much soda and experienced a sugar crash.
It's a cautionary tale, you should learn from it.
It's L's birthday tomorrow so I think I'm going to try and make him a marshmallow crispy cake. I make one every few years and it is always a hit.
In fact, I would be really happy to have this as my wedding cake... someone else already did!
Here's my recipe if anyone wants to have a go in the future.
What you need is:
- X2 lightly greased cake tins (nothing actually needs to be baked in the oven but if you want it to be a cake...)
- A large saucepan
- A wooden spoon
- A cup of hot water (this is to dip your spoon into if it becomes too sticky)
- A Potato masher
- 1/3 pack of butter
- 1x bag of toffees
- 2x bags of marshmallows
- x1 spoon of golden syrup (not really essential)
- x1 box of rice crispies (I used about 2/3 of a box)
- x1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
Directions:
In your saucepan, heat the butter on very low heat, then melt the pack of toffees, then finally marshmallows until they become a sort of creamy whipp. This will probably take about 15 minutes of constant stirring.
Now put in a little bit of vanilla essence and golden syrup, then start slowly adding the rice crispies, whilst mixing. You may need to use a potato masher to add more crispies in – the more the better!
When all of the mixture is suitably dense, dish up into the greased baking tins and put them in the fridge to set. The longer the better apparently. When you get them out, you can sandwich the two halves together, like you would with a Victoria sponge.
*dusts hands off and winks to imaginary tv cooking show audience*
Yes, i don't think it exists outside of Texas though. They used to have a Shiner Bock ice cream but i never tried it.
We don't have rice crispies. 
Really?! Madness!
What are the most popular Norwegian cereals?
I'm not sure actually. I know we have Kellogg's and Cheerios, but I am not really aware of what other people eat, haha.
I really like the Swedish brand AXA, their cereal is healthy and yummy.
Looks like cornflakes! Yum!
I tried Alpen for the first time last week and thought it was disgusting! It was like eating dust. Maybe I'm just not a museli girl.
They're oat flakes, and I love the crunchy texture.
I tried puffed oats a while back. They're all soft and chewy and blegh! Really didn't like those, haha. It comes in this big bag though, and since I don't really want to throw all that food away, it's still standing around in my kitchen. I don't know what to do with it, haha.
I can't believe a whole pack of toffees go in to that rice crispies cake, it sounds AMAZING. I'm really craving that now.
Museli is a racket anyway! Have you seen how many calories are in it? You can have something way better than museli with that many calories.
You know how when someone is drifting away from you, you either fight like hell to keep them, or say fuck it and destroy what's left? Yeah, I do both, and that's gotta be hell to deal with.
