I know but I figured that'd garner less recognition

My mother had a cheesecake recipe that had no bite to it at all, and she made it all the time when I was growing up. The first time I had cheesecake that wasn't hers...

bleah

...I have since embraced both, but mostly Not Mom's, because she doesn't make it any more.

Also:

^ SO GOOD.

ETA: This came up in the same image search, and I caught it belatedly:

I have an RL peeve that doesn't involve food or linguistics!

Don't use your work email for personal correspondence.
Don't use your work email for personal relationship-based correspondence.
Don't use your work email to discuss your evening with your colleague's sister.
Don't use your work email to send that discussion, including intimate particulars, to the 'all-staff' mailing list.

I'll take this any day over cheesecake!

@Darren My inner halloween-loving psycho is already trying to figure twisted variations of that with food coloring and whatnot to make it look like a horror show. It looks like it would adapt very well to that end.

I am having unbelievable work stress right now in a client management way and I would just really, really like if I could stop clenching my teeth.

mietze

I am run down as fuck, and can feel my system fighting something off. Thus far I'm winning, but I still feel like crap on a cracker.

surreality

@saosmash Please, please, please take this one seriously if it's ongoing and not just a 'this few hours is driving me bonkers'. I know it seems like a nuisance thing and not any sort of crisis, but I thought the same for years... and that's kinda why I'm in the midst of getting implants now. You do not want this, trust me.

If you can get something for anxiety, or even a minor muscle relaxant, for times like this? It's worth asking your doc. (Doc, not dentist.) Mouth guards suck, but if it's happening when you're awake, it's probably happening (more aggressively) in sleep; it really will help.

My dumb ass wore the wrong glasses today. I was so out of it I didn't realize during my commute... only when a coworker commented that they like them.

So my being unable to see for shit this morning wasn't being tired: it was because I was wearing my computer glasses out and about.

Makes dealing with work difficult because I can't look down hallways without eye strain. Bah.

I think the issue is you put glasses on wrong.

@Auspice

Oh fuck those people with a rusty, running chainsaw. I have metal in me that expands and contracts with the pressure changes associated with cold weather. -.-

@Sunny One of my (many) Russian coworkers took her car in because the AC wasn't working very well and she 'sometimes needs it'.

This is Canada in December...

Here's my peeve of the day. Its actually for yesterday, but I was too tired...

Turning all the aircon units on in every classroom at the same time leads to none of us having air conditioning. It was 117 degrees.
