A murse?!
. Never heard of Taco Tico.
.
. If any of you ever find yourselves out my way, I would suggest stopping by that place. But yeah I guess we take for granted living on the ocean all the fresh seafood. Usually once it's been frozen it's not quite the same.
There are some river fish I do like. Catfish is good.
I'm a big fish fan though so I do like most fish!
. Definitely want to see a picture when you get a chance. 
It's like the people who were all, "Get your government hands off my Medicare!" a few years ago. 
Omg, I love your description.
Went to the grocery store after work, and sampled some strawberry rhubarb cider in the little wine store off to the side of the grocery store (because we're liberal here for almost everything, except puritanical when it comes to booze, and we can't buy it in grocery stores, so a few of them get around it by opening a "separate" wine store). Anyway, it's quite good, I was in a rare fruity, summer drink mood. I've had one, and I'm feeling a little tipsy already, mostly because I'm exhausted, haven't slept well for much of this week.
OH!!! CONGRATS THORA!!!!! SO EXCITED FOR YOU!!!
Oh! So Sarah's lease is up at the end of August, and she let me know a week or two ago that she wants to move back here. She was hoping to be done her thesis by then, but her advisor has been insanely slow at getting back to her with things, so now she thinks it may take into Sept or Oct before she's done, and she'll have to finish it from home. She's applying to start grad school for Sept 2013. I thought maybe she'd want to stay in Waterloo and work there for the year, but she wants to come back home. She's home this weekend, and we're going to start getting her room ready, and making room for the crap she's bringing home :shudder: She mentioned how convenient it would be to just get a job where I work for the year, and then I remembered there is this program that runs from summer to the late winter/early spring that they always hire data entry people for. It just so happens that my work BFF runs that program, so I was asking her about it, and she was telling me the dates it runs, etc, and what Sarah would have to do to apply. The person she would have to apply to is my former work crush, ha. So, I went and talked to him this morning...fortunately, we get along very well, and so he told me that if he needs to hire people for this, which it's 95% likely he will, he'd hire her. The job is likely to finish in March, which is awesome, because she wants to go volunteer for this wild animal rescue up north in the Muskokas for the spring, so the timing of everything is perfect. He even told me today that when he gets employees that are good, he's very accommodating, and will give her days off for thesis work if she needs it.
Holy rambley paragraph, Batman.
It's so cheesy, but I love the movie so damn much. I was in the musical when I was in high school, so this brings back loads of great memories. Doing that musical was probably my favourite thing in all of high school. #dramanerd
Thanks, VP!!
That's cool about the opportunity for Sarah. Hope it works out!
Grease is on the TV, so I'm watching.
Oh man.
I'll send you a PM.
Oooh, now it's Look at Me, I'm Sandra Dee. This is the song I auditioned with.
. ?)! That'd be really nice if you guys were both able to work alongside each other and everything. And yay for her coming back home, too, I bet you're excited to have her back for a longer amount of time.
I watched it a lot as a kid, then when the musical was announced in my city, I obsessively watched it in the lead up to the audition and before rehearsals began.
I remember the 'Grease' medley getting played all the time at school dances. Everyone in my school was big on that movie.
I like that movie, too. I've seen it so many times on TV I could probably quote it
VP, ooh, wow, that does sound like a great deal for Sarah (and hey, way to have connections, huh
It was SUCH a blast to be a part of! The cast was awesome, and it was a fabulous experience. It had been WAY too long since I'd last seen it. Such a great movie.
It was done by our local community theatre program, but I was in high school at the time. I was in a community choir then, and the director of the musical was also our choir's conductor, so I had an in with her already.
I watched Dirty Dancing the other night.
This is what I'm making for dinner tonight. I hope it will be good! a hint of honey: Mashed Potatoes with Gouda and Bacon
.
I hope they'll taste good re-heated, because I'm gonna have a ton of leftovers.
Verdict: potatoes are VERY good! I cut the recipe in half, and probably should have cut it in half again. There are a LOT of potatoes!
I bet they're great!
Nothing wrong with having crap for dinner on occasion. I understand not wanting to cook on a hot night and heat up your home more than necessary. I HOPE we'll get some hot weather out here this summer. It's been pretty dreary so far. 
frankly I miss it...we have pizza veeeery occasionally here
.I HOPE we'll get some hot weather out here this summer. It's been pretty dreary so far.
Last summer was horrible, so I was HOPING that this year would be better. So far, not so much. However, there's still plenty of time left for the weather to improve.
I slept until 9:30 this morning.This is good - usually if I'm out until 2, I can't even fall asleep. I was wise to pop some melatonin when I got home, I think.
Last night was fun, if nothing earth-shattering. I'm not sure what I was expecting.
There was an ensemble girl who did, however, do Britney's Baby One More Time in the most awesome and hilarious Britney Spears imitation I have ever heard. It was a thing of wonder.
Really fun to spend some time with my friend.
I told her tonight that after being on my own since Bob (like 3...4 years ago?) I'd probably meet someone 5 minutes after she moved back, and want to have all the sex all over the house, and she'll mess things up. She said she could spend time at her non-existent friends' houses (all of her friends are out of town now). The odds of that happening are fairly slim, so I think we'll be okay.
My neighbour is moving out, and she left all kinds of shit on the curb, including a mattress and kitchen chairs. Numerous people have stopped to check out the chairs, but no one has taken them. We've begun to narrate these exchanges from the perspective of the chairs.
We make our own fun.

Personally I'd say screw him and find a guy who appreciates you for what you are!
I hate Grease and always have - the message of that movie is "If the guy you love won't accept you for how you are, undergo a complete personality change into a bad girl and he'll make the tiniest of changes (how much of a change is it to letter in track?) and will love you!"
I rarely watch the last part of the movie where she changes just to get him. I was cooking last night, so I only ended up watching the first half of the movie.
