@achewood Chris waited all day for the Comcast repair guy, and he never showed up. What is he supposed to do with this cream pie?

I bought this shirt that might be my perfect shirt. It makes me feel like the opposite of this. I got lots of compliments the other day on it. Nice. LIVING THE DREAM. Now I just need a few more like it and I can be wearing a perfect shirt every day.

Speaking of which, LFM, you did a live storytelling thing? HOW COULD YOU BE SO PRETENTIOUS. If you really wanted people to hear your story, why didn't you write it online, or record it as an mp3? You actually made people COME SEE YOU? You are so ARROGANT.

TIG open my birthday present from my mom a whole month early. You can't blame me for it, though -- she sprung it on me & it wasn't wrapped.

It's a Keurig single-serve coffee maker. She got one last month (as a "Christmas present" "from" my dad, which she picked out, purchased, and opened in mid-December) and I guess she noticed that I've been eyeing it jealously because she ordered one for me last week. Today she casually asked, "BTW did you decide what you want for your birthday?" and I said "Well, I'd like a Keurig but they're too expensive." And BAM! There it was. Apparently she and my SIL went in together on it.

Also, Pedro booked us a couple's massage for tomorrow night. We have a sitter but didn't have any specific plans, so he made us an appointment and sprung it on me. I couldn't be more thrilled -- I've been wanting to do this for ages and I can't think of a better time (since my bum shoulder has been acting up all day).

I have a great family, but my birthday's not for another month and I'm afraid it's going to be anticlimactic after all this. So I'ma just go ahead and start telling people I'm 34 so I don't have to worry about the Day when it rolls around.

My wife wanted one after a couple days' visit at her parents who had one too.  I was initially offended by the concept (waste of packaging, being locked into "k-cup" only format, lack of selection in varieties....) and demanded that if we got one we had to get the little dealie that lets you use regular ground coffee through the machine.  Well, 2 years later I still haven't used regular ground coffee in the thing, and I use it at the very least once a day.

I drink tea, so I keep an electric kettle on my desk.  Works great.

They don't have any of that civet scat coffee though.  Where can you get K-Cups of that?

The Keurig makes tea (hot or iced), as well as chai, lemonade, hot chocolate and hot apple cider. That's what sold me -- between the Keurig and my SodaStream I can make pretty much anything I'd ever want to drink. (The SodaStream was my birthday gift last year, and I use it every day.)

No restrictions on that sort of thing hereabouts.  They do get a little strict on the heaters sometimes if it's stressing the circuits.

Some of my coworkers have space heaters in their offices, so its not a state thing.  Unless its the People's State of Orange County.
