some folks drive the bears out of the wilderness, some to see a bear would pay a fee -
but me, i just bear up to my bewildered best, and some folks even see the bear in me

i have amazed myself

Lettuce (!!! Jesus Christ!!! Like, more than 4 bites of it, too!!!)
Meaty hashy-stuff that was spicy but good
Sour Cream
Cheese (multiple kinds)
Beans
Tortilla Shell.



That has got the be the most diverse meal i've eaten in months.
Not to mention it was all on one plate.
With lettuce.
(i didn't eat the tomatoes.)

I'm not saying i'll get these myself, but i quite enjoyed eating it this once, if just for the layers of food that kept popping out of nowhere. I think it helped that i hadn't eaten since the afternoon. I'm not so good at eating while i'm working.
and underneath the cheese is BEANS!!!
i totally did NOT know that! Seriously. This is the most surprising food i have ever eaten.
And there is CHEESE at the bottom!
i just thought it was getting all gunky and i was kind of dreading eating it,
but its CHEESE!

i never knew

you could use sour cream as salad dressing.

i like sour cream, but i never eat it because i usually only eat it on tortilla chips and not a lot of other people i know prefer plain sour cream to salsa or dip, and i dont eat enough chips to make buying them for myself worthwhile.

so, good to know. sour cream = salad dressing.

You will not believe me...

but im eating a Taco Salad.

The janitor at work brought it to me, for no reason other than im here really late.
Hes really nice. and so i am eating a taco salad. I actually think ill be fine with everything but the tomatoes.

why is it so friggin cold in my room?

This is actually a post i started about a week ago... i dont remember what else i was going to say... but you can read it anyway.


i'm wearing a sweatshirt and slippers and warm pajama pants and i'm freezing. and heidi's about to open the door to take out her bike and things are just going to go downhill from there...

i bought a dvd burner the other day... so i can make silly copies of my silly movies and send them to silly people. :) and also because i've been downloading movies (thank you zach) and want a hard copy of some of them.

and at work today, waiting for datasets to download, i started reading a book for my research paper on music in Stanley Kubrick films. i thought i should acquaint myself formally with film music theory a bit and so started reading The Art of Film Music and found myself quickly on page 70. This is not a normal occurance. I suppose thats what happens when you actually read something youre interested in... which hasnt happened for me for 6 years or so...
