Spork!

ThinkGeek is deadly.

Seriously, I've looked at the site and thought "would defaulting on the car loan be that bad?"

But mostly, I'm good. But I needed a new backpack to carry Mr. Bigglesworth along with all the other crap I tend to haul around. So I checked out the site, and found this. It showed up today, and damn was it worth every penny. I have pockets and holders for everything, and the bag is well-constructed.

kshandra and I have gotten in the habit of shooting links to each other over IM, and that how I ended up ordering the Coolest Thing In The Universe. Kiri is going to be the envy of Burning Man, I just know it. We also picked up this because Kiri needs to use online conference calls for DMV stuff and I hate having to switch out cords.

Because of all this, I now have 800 Geek Points!

(BTW: for those of you who got to see the protected post about today: three beers and counting!)

Things I cannot have... yet.

I'm craving a big plate of crinkle-cut fries. The kind you got from Ore-Ida and cooked until they weren't quite done, but at least weren't soggy. Dip 'em in A-1 sauce. Heaven.

It's amazing, as the prospect of being able to really bite, chew, and eat like a normal person approaches, how many foods I'm developing a craving for. I may buy myself a dozen doughnuts just for the sheer joy of eating them without worrying about choking because I can't grind them properly before swallowing.

Vital update.

Can no longer feel my nose. Beer is working. When ears go numb, will consider bed.

Beer. The reason for Western Civilization and vice-versa.
