I’m back at my apartment for a day and a half to try and get some things done before school, BUT I have four tutoring lessons tomorrow. Maybe I’ll come back after my pre-op appointment on Monday and stay here another day. Blah, so much driving back and forth across town.
My cable modem’s blinky lights told me it was working, when in fact it was not, BUT restarting everything fixed it.
Once again it’s time to be deeply introspective, an about-face from this blog’s usual navel-gazing flavor.
I’m a bit intimidated by 2005, both the year itself and last year’s YiR. At the beginning of 2005, I declared it a “Year of Transition and Transformation,” and indeed it was.
Starbucks stores in Seattle, San Francisco, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Diego, Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Washington, and Portland are no longer using trans fats in any of their food products, starting today.
Good news, of course, but no word on when these changes will make their way to Houston stores, except that it “will take some time.” Sure sucks to be stranded out here in the uncivilized wilderness of…the fourth-largest city in the US. Ahem.
Guess I’ll have to drive to—gosh, none of those places are remotely close* to Texas, are they?—San Diego for my chocolate chip cookie fix. Or I could, you know, not eat the cookies for a couple years. Le sigh.
