I wonder if broccoli, asparagus and brussels sprouts sit around and try to figure out how the hell kale became so popular when it tastes worse than they do.

Come to think of it, I wonder about that, too.

Some say it's a personality quirk (like I don't have enough of those already), but I absolutely hate ever being late to anything. Many years ago, a mentor of mine told me something I've never forgotten: "Early is on time, on time is late, late is unacceptable."

Yeah, yeah... I'm awake. I'm just not that happy about it.

Oh well, at least there's coffee...


For those that like good Chinese food and enjoy my little We Try Wednesday videos, here's my latest.

Apparently, the only reason I do laundry is so the cats have someplace to sleep.

I love me some lo mein noodles. They always taste better in a to-go box, too, for reasons unknown.

Question of the Day: What's your favorite thing to order at a Chinese restaurant?


Protip: If you need to rush somewhere, carry a fire extinguisher. Nobody will stop a person running with a fire extinguisher...

Feeling a bit out of sorts this morning. Kind of like Bigfoot sipping an espresso in a French café kind of morning.



She gets very annoyed when she discovers I'm eating salad.

You quote Bruno Mars: "Smoother than a fresh jar of Skippy".

In celebration of National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day, the Question of the Day is simple: which type of peanut butter do you prefer, crunchy or smooth?


Was listening to an interview with a hip-hop producer about unexpected bands that influenced him, and he mentioned Pink Floyd with a great quote: "When I hear Pink Floyd, my thoughts move in slow motion." What a great turn of phrase, and quite accurate, too.

Thanks microwave, for heating the plate and not my breakfast...

I'm up, but the jury is still out on whether I am awake or not.

Maybe I need some coffee and toast with jam...


The sky was looking ominous so I asked my phone "surely it can't rain today?" To which Siri responded "yes it is going to rain, and don't call me Shirley" it was at this point I knew my phone was on airplane mode.

Once a year, whether I need it or not. 😁
