I have little radios playing in my ears.

There was a commercial for a restaurant that specializes in 'hand-breaded tenderloins.'

Huh? I really really want to go there, order a tenderloin, take a bite, jump up spitting it out and choking and trying to drink water and accusing loudly "THAT MUDDERPLUCKIN' TENDERLOIN WAS BREADED BY A MACHINE! I JUST KNOW IT. I CAN TELL HAND-BREADING WHEN I TASTE IT AND THAT AIN'T HAND-BREADING."

I mean. Really.

Sent back a pizza.
Third time.

Okay, over about a six month period, but always for the same complaint. NOT ENOUGH SAUCE. By which I really mean - no sauce at all.

I ordered online with a voucher code.
It was a payday treat.
I minus-ed the Dominos sauce and plus-ed the sundried tomato and garlic sauce.
I got a pizza with NO sauce which was as dry as old whatsits.

So once again I called, and a replacement is coming.
What did the Manager say?
"I'm so sorry. Many of our staff can't read English"

!!!!!!

I hate to say it but I bet your replacement pizzas are COVERED in "special sauce."

It was pretty much okay.
Special Sauce just means more protein

Feel a bit sick-ish now actually.
Serves me right.

Quick update on me, just for fun:
Just spent $400 on my car because of an overheating issue. Coolant flush + radiator replacement. That is fixed but now its making an odd noise, kinda like a grinding when I'm in low gear and its still getting "warmed up."
My ex moved to Austin (oh yeah, I broke up with my boyfriend), he is coming back to town next weekend and wants to go to dinner. He owes me money so I have to see him to get paid back but I honestly don't want to go to dinner.
I'm dating a guy I met through OKCupid (don't make fun of me please) he's nice, has a good job (much better than my last disaster), big geek, awful kisser. Really not sure if I like him a whole lot, although he has most of the qualities I generally seek (not the bad kissing bit) so I want to like him, but so far its just not there.
Della is doing good, my BIL is genuinely starting to like her. She did eat a bunch of his cookies last night when he went out with my sis and left them on the coffee table. I was in my bedroom so I didn't hear her misbehaving at first.
Braces should come off soon, hopefully 2 more appointments.
Mom is pissed at me because I told her off for sending me preachy email about work ethics because I stayed home from work for a migraine.
Mom is pissed at my sister and vice verse cuz she and dad are getting conned into yet another pyramid scheme and she won't read any of the data my sister has sent her trying to dissuade her.
My brother lost his job and has been conned into pyramid scheme he is now trying to get mom and dad into.
See my endocrinologist in Oct for a followup, I'm now just on synthroid (that is a good thing) but still feeling pretty depressed/cranky. Maybe thats just how I'm gonna be from now on. Maybe life is just more shitty lately.

MTP, that's a lot of information!
Amd I will respond to it a little later.

I just stopped by to say I am nervous.
I actually have butterflies, as if I am going on a date or something.
Approx 15 minutes until Tennant and Tiger and Mums arrive.

Ridiculous!

Although one of my fears has been assuaged.
Had they been going to cancel, surely I'd have heard by now...?

So, MTP.
Ditched the bf - good times.
But it won't work with the new one.
Sorry. It's not me being a doom-mongerer, or the fact that he's a bad kisser (although that doesn't help) it's just that I was there. I saw that, did that, bought the break-up t-shirt. Not with him of course.

If you don't feel it now you never will.
Come over to England and be gay with me instead.

Yay for braces coming off. Your amile will be even more adorable (see above).

And Della eating biscuits that were left out?
Yup, he deserved that.
Tell him it's practice for having kids.
(just don't let him get confused which type of practice!)

Your Mum wasn't to be pissy.
I recognise the symptoms.
Try not to swallow it down or accept blame.
I'm not a good example as I do both, but do what I say not what I do.

Sorry your family are slowly going off their collective rockers.
You've got us though. We went fruitloop a long time back so at least we're a known quantity.

Did you know why Google Earth opens where it does? Because if you zoom in fully, you'll arrive at an apartment building in Lawrence, Kansas. It's a secret tribute to Google VP Brian McClendon, who grew up in that building.

google earth...

was driving in the neighborhood the other day and saw a funny looking car on the road coming toward me. turns out it was a toyota prius painted all google earth-y with a giant apparatus on the roof. I believe the big thing on the roof (looked like a little dalek) was the structure to hold the cameras. t'was cool, but I wasn't quick enough to snap a picture of it.

Making my Dalek cake to take in for Tuesday.
Bitch in the office has birthday Monday so no point taking it in then (as in she will already be bringing in cakes).

Maybe I should verbally attack her as soon as she comes into work?
That's what she did on my birthday after all.

Ne'er mind, she's old.
I might be fat but she can't get any younger.
