Well, beyond the fact that our state fair is in Puyallup... I’m not sure there’s more to it. But I always suspected that maybe it meant something else in Vietnamese :~)

I’m making waffles. You can just hop on up here and have some, if you like. I could heat ‘em up when you get here. ;o)

Yah know, I wish more engineering types would think about the implications of what they are working on... why do only the dumb ones do that?

And it’s not your job to keep a running scorecard of what I might, or might not, find offensive.

Then who am I making this big spreadsheet for?

Rats! I forgot it’s National Pancakes Day.

Free pancakes at IHOP.

I thought that was last week? Today is not Pancake Tuesday.

IHOP postponed the promotion because of Super Tuesday. I don’t think it’s ~strictly~ a religious thing for them.

I’m feeling crabby, too.

Dropped the van off to be worked on. The good thing is that they did find stuff wrong, so it’s not all in my head. At least...I think that’s a good thing.

The bad thing is that it’s gonna be $800 bucks worth of work. And most of it isn’t anything that can be put off, unless I feel like ending up stranded or daid.

*sigh*

Well dang. At least if you’re going to imagine things wrong with your car, they could be cheap things!

How’d you get to work?

I was just going to post to you that I’ve just been in your house. A Siamese cat went running across the yard and wouldn’t come to me, so I ran over and checked to make sure both of yours were in. They are. They’re fine.

But if he comes back, you might have another one. :~)

I got a ride with a gal from work. Had to come in before hours to reboot servers, too, so I’ve been up forever. And I left the house a wreck. :-\

Another Siamese around, huh? Strange. I wonder if that’s what I’ve been hearing the last few days. I keep hearing what I think is Tam, and calling him, and then it turns out he’s sitting right there next to me, wondering why I’m shouting.

Interesting.

Are you ~sure~ a car payment isn't a better option? Just askin'. You've put a lot of time and money into this van (and a good bit of mileage).

Of course, I just dropped $1,000 on a used cat...
