Mysteries of the universe

Tin foil is magical. You put it in the oven and the oven is hot and the food is hot and it cooks the food but the tin foil is not hot. How is this possible?
I made special cro coffee and macadamia cookies with the magical foil. My apartment smells delicious. It is reminding me of a cafe near the train in Astoria and I am feeling so nostalgic. As usual in Florida this time of year, it is raining. I have a few movies to watch and I'm going to cozy up and settle in for the night with my treats. I don't know for sure if cozy up is a real expression or if I just made it up but that is what I am doing.

Sounds great. I had a fight with Roy this morning. Not speaking with him now. I am going to a pumpkin patch and am taking two devil children with me. Yikes. Roy is coming too but we will all pretend he is not there. Enjoy the rest of your day.

Have a great time at the pumpkin patch and pick some good ones! I'm not sure how you're up to two devil kids now but have fun with that. There might be hay rides or other stuff to do, depending where you go. I worked at a pumpkin patch when I was sixteen, I painted the kids' faces like Indians. Maybe you will lose Roy in the garbage area where the rotten pumpkins are.
I made the pasta salad again, but this time I made a huge batch and tossed the feta in last, it worked like you said. So good. I like having the cold pasta in the fridge ready to go any time I want, I think I'll make it every week.
For dessert I'm having cinnamon rolls with orange icing, I made them from one of those pillsbury tube things that you buy at the store. Coffee too. I'm watching Stranger than Fiction, the Will Ferrell movie where someone is narrating his life and he can hear it. He is trying to figure out whether he lives in a comedy or a tragedy. Interesting.

We finally came home. Too late to carve pumpkins but L and Kate were able to paint two at Suzi's house. Roy went to play golf and missed out on all the pumpkin patch fun. We went to a corn maze and I almost had a panic attack. I kept expecting a maniac with a chainsaw to attack. I will never go to a corn maze again. Took us 40 min to find the exit. Scary unsettling place. Horrible day though. 95 degrees and no shade anywhere. I went in long pants that I ended up rolling to my butt. I also kept throwing water on the girls to keep them hydrated. Ridiculous. They should grow some trees!

I saw on the news that you were having unseasonably warm weather, I thought it was not good for pumpkin patches. The maze sounds scary! I would have saved you, I would have brought you some shorts and some water and carried you out of that bad place and got you in the shade.
You must be exhausted now after that long day. You should take two aspirin and a nice bath, maybe with a candle.

Very cute. I am going to shower now and get into bed. I might still be a little hung over from Sat night. Li and I alone had two bottles of vodka and did some bombs made of Jager and Red Bull. Yuck.

You are cute. Enjoy your shower. Sweet dreams princess, good night.

Good dinner tonight. I made salmon with teryaki type sauce and chickpeas on the side. If you ever want to eat something quick that's a great side to just about everything eat chickpeas. Get a can and drain them then just add fresh lemon juice olive oil and shredded parmesan (buy a chunk and shred it on that metal thingie). Yummy. Ice cream time now with lots of whip cream. And I will watch the office then. I am still waiting to see Roy. And my favorite is Dwight. How is your evening?

Shitty day today. I ate at the cafeteria. For doing such a thing I was rewarded by slipping and hurting myself. My knee hurts and my foot is swelling. I have to go to the emergency room. So much for classes tonight. I am miserable.

I like Dwight too. In season one he was just an ass and Jim would prank him in every episode, but they started writing him to be cooler in a way, to the point where you almost felt bad when Jim teased him. There was one episode where Dwight got a concussion and he was suddenly funny and he just stayed cool after that. He saw Pam crying one time and he was going to fight somebody over it, but of course he ruined the chivalrous moment by asking her if she was PMSing pretty hard.
I have no food so I will buy chickpeas from the store when I go out in a minute. I already did my runs for the week so I can relax a little tonight. I have to study and get my dress uniform ready though because I have to go to a board tomorrow and it's going to suck and I need to be prepared. It's for sailor of the quarter and they will ask me a bunch of Navy stuff and current events etc and I have to be charming, it will be like a job interview but with saluting. I don't want to do it.
Which office episode did you watch last night? New one tonight!

Oh no M, are you okay? You should have gone right away, not wait until the end of the day. I want to take care of you. I kiss it. xxxxx

Posted on October 11, 2007 4:52 PM

I am miserable!!!!!! I will go to er in a minute. I didn't watch it last night - I got days messed up so I will watch tonight if I am home from the er.

I want to give you presents. I do not like you to be hurt! I hope you get home soon and I hope you feel better. You tell the doctor that you are a princess and you expect to be treated as such, and just let me know if he gives you any problems.

Posted on October 11, 2007 5:15 PM

I do not think er doctor's will be impressed. Hopefully I won't have a long wait. I have decided to yell and threaten if they make me wait too long. Barring that I will come up with something else.

Posted on October 11, 2007 5:26 PM

Okay, you know best. I was never very good at negotiating this type of thing. I hope you are not going alone.

Posted on October 11, 2007 5:34 PM

Of course I am. I came up with a plan. If they make me wait too long I will have Roy drop off L and then she will run around and make them crazy so they see me first.

Posted on October 11, 2007 5:44 PM

Why are you not there yet and why are you going alone. I am frustrated with the type of care you are receiving thus far. Are you in pain? I am shocked that nobody is helping you.

Posted on October 11, 2007 5:50 PM

You have to email from now on. My battery is low. The company ordered a car. I am waiting for it now. The car will take me to the er. Yep I am on my own. Roy has to pick up L and do homework. I think I would rather go by myself anyway. Easier to be miserable that way. I also have serious homework to do. I am missing class because of this. Sheer misery.

I bought chickpeas and new olive oil that looks good and lemon and parmesan, also baby spinach and sundried tomatoes and bacon.
But first, vanilla ice cream with strawberries on top.
And coffee.
