Emo Unearthed

Yes, the blog is finally back and so is that sad, emo mood it takes to sit here blogging. I am dressed appropriately in one of my favorite cardigans. What have I been doing since I posted my last blogilicious post? A serious amount of reading and baking. Cookies (chocolate cayenne pepper), bread (banana, orange cranberry), cakes (red velvet), brownies, pies (pumpkin, apple). I made lots of caramels and so much fudge that I still have some in my fridge from Christmas.

Can You Keep a Secret?

After a caraffe of coffee and two cups of tea, I don't think I'm excreting urine, but some unsanitary caffeinated beverage. I am strangely sleepy, but dare not add more for fear of throwing my body's PH off. I keep hearing Charlton Heston's voice "out of my cold, dead hands", but I picture myself with a coffee mug and not a gun.

Need a Muse

If this second cup of coffee doesn't get the words flowing, I am going to resort to eating instant coffee crystals. I thought I should leave this note in case it goes awry to help the toxicologist doing my autopsy.

Quotable (on Vices)

One of my friends/coworkers claimed Friday to not have any vices. I pointed out that he drinks (A LOT) and he still insisted that it wasn't a vice. Another coworker piped in that "drinking is not a vice, but a must and if I could drink at work, I would!"

Who needs to drink on the job when you have awesome entertainment like that ;)?!

I Love To Write

... except when I have to.

1 cup of coffee
1 cup of Lady Grey
almost caffeinated.

Path to Rep Party: Getting Punched in the Face

Truth is stranger than fiction... Mike Tyson has joined the republican party and is even trying to help someone get elected. Deadspin via KC:

As for the t-shirt Tyson was wearing, its for Maryland Republican Senatorial candidate Michael Steele (Karl Rove's head hits desk with audible thud).
