p.s. on foosh names
Jun. 23rd, 2005 08:13 pmI forgot about mai tai! Wouldn't Mai Tai be a cute name? Mai Tais are, like, pineapple and grenadine plus, like rum or something, maybe orange juice, whatever. But still. Wouldn't that be cute? A fish named Mai Tai?
(Actually a classic Mai Tai has cherry brandy in it, too, sort of a la a Singapore Sling, to which it is related but SS's have gin. Wait! I have cherry brandy! And gin! And, oh my God, club soda! And holy shit, sour mix too! There's no stopping me!! ... Whoa. My evening just improved. Holy crap, Dave even installed our tiki torches in the lawn today.)
In other news, am brainfried. At 4:00 they asked if I'd stay an extra two and a half hours since they had sort of forgotten to schedule anybody else. Again, my mouth said, "sure!" and the rest of me said "sweet Christ what the hell is wrong with you?" So I stayed.
I sort of hurt all over, as it was busy, but I am sort of rich. (Well. Will be. Damn, next week's paycheck will have like 10 hours of overtime in it. Given that my overtime rate is nine bucks an hour... I mean, guys, you gotta learn to make a schedule.)
My shoulders hurt, oddly. Durr. I think it's from when I was helpfully de-icing the ice machine first thing this morning. Am I a moron, much? I think so.
Oh, we have a sugar snap pea vine taller than Dave now. Neat, huh? Y'all should come over next week and try the snap peas. I bet they'll be really good by then.
