I got an e-mail from VSC and, like, wept with joy. This kitchen remodel has me missing eating at home. Our kitchen still has usable appliances, but its in disarray and is a huge mess, so F that. I then remembered that my VSC scholarship requires me to work in the kitchen 10 hours a week. I'm really happy about that. I think manual labor complements writing very well and love cooking in big, industrial kitchens.
Seattle is on, even though it means missing key events like Dr. Dre's going away party and Roy's BoS show. Poopers on that front, but I haven't gotten to hang with the Swilkes and the D-Moe since my wedding and that didn't count, which means we haven't REALLY hung out together at once since 2001. Too long. EDIT: My memory serves me badly. We hung out in April '07 in DC. DUH.
A can of pineapple rings exploded in my pantry at some point over the last year or so, causing its innards to rot. I didn't realize the can was open, so when I went to pull it out of its dark corner, stank, rotten pineapple juice splashed all over the floor and my legs and the other cans I was removing from the pantry in preparation for the kitchen remodel. The smell was nauseating and I was already keyed up and tired from hauling shit out to the storage container, so that made me even more angry.
I am sorry for the people of South Texas but I'm really excited about the rain Austin is going to get. Does that make me a bad person?
