Cheddarwurst, dogs, PointlessPolicy, Cue!

Cheddarwurst, despite its disturbing name, is tasty. Smoked sausage with embedded Wisconsin cheddar cheese, which when heated, optionally condimented, and wrapped in a tortilla, makes a quick and tasty snack/meal. :)

Work was entertaining, in that Wednesday is clinic day, meaning a constant parade of dogs through my department. Two of note were an 8-week-old St. Bernard puppy weighing in at 45 pounds who was an adorable puffball, and a German Shepherd / Welsh Corgi mix--I guessed the mix before asking the owner! :D

New pointless corporate policy at work: When both pet blocks (Kaytee Forti-Diet Mouse & Rat food, extruded pellets) and hamster/gerbil food are given to hamsters/gerbils, as was already policy, they must be in separate bowls. They are both dry foods, replaced simultaneously as necessary, and exact quantities are not controlled. Why another bowl?

Got off work around 10:30, went home, changed, went back out to Cue. First person I ran into was Kate! This was pleasant surprise, and we chatted much througout the evening. :) Wandering a bit more yielded Becky, Bob, and Ted--who I only learned was coming by reading his comment to a cue_club post in the few minutes I was home after work. I took his place in a game of pool and only won against Becky by default, as usual. ;)

Danced a bit, bid Kate adieu, danced some more, and then plopped down with Becky/Bob/Heather until the club closed, then for a few minutes outside. Apparently I remind Heather of another Sagittarian, so she briefly interrogated me about various associations and interests, and concluded I was very different and much more grounded than the other. :D On the way out, discovered the reason for the odd route MapQuest prescribed me to get to Cue--a one-way intersection (123&236) makes it straightforward to go out, but coming in would require a different intersection and a loopback.)

~80 entries behind, since 1:34pm. :P

Best bird post ever, from profworm:
Birds come standard with a reptillian sense of emotional response. They don't understand the same concepts of joy and sadness we mammals take for granted, but they're a hell of a lot more motivated than lizards. Like iguanas with a meth addiction.

One of my first memories of Myst, and certainly the most potent, is of her charging halfway across a pet store to start a 2-on-1 fight with a Cockatoo and an African Grey. Nevermind that she's a conure with about as much body mass as a pair of twinkies, she'll fling herself headfirst at any other living thing that comes near me.

I thought I was buying a bird, and I got a latino gangsta girlfriend instead. It's hard to tell, seeing as she's bilingual and I'm not, but I swear one time I think I even heard her say, "Don't think I won't cut you!"

:D

[15:37] CU Stryker: fortunately, i no longer have to worry about that. however, i do have loans to consolidate, credit cards to cancel, hundreds of LJ comments to reply to, my country's 500th anniversary to plan, [my wedding to arrange,]* my wife to murder, and Guilder to frame for it. I'm swamped!
[15:38] solacemoof: *lol!*


* So I have a wife to murder, you know. Forgot that part! ;D
