This chicken carbonara sandwich is making me want to take back every bad thing I ever said about Quizno's.

I think I prefer old dirty yella to Big Mustard, but so be it. I happily accept this delicious condiment nickname.

Jordan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 19:26 (sixteen years ago) link

I kind of have Jim hair going on at the moment.

dan m, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 19:27 (sixteen years ago) link

NO, he's not the racist gay republican leather guy. Jordan, you've met the gay racist leather republican! At C3ll Block.

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 19:28 (sixteen years ago) link

jaymc, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 19:30 (sixteen years ago) link

?

If so, I like it. Reverend Jim hair.

kenan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 19:36 (sixteen years ago) link

The mullet beginnings behind the ear, that is.

dan m, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 19:39 (sixteen years ago) link

I am never that carefully disheveled. I can be that smug on occasion, though.

Reverend Jim hair, I can totally pull off. No prob.

kenan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 19:43 (sixteen years ago) link

I also love the fat free greek yogurt! It's my favorite of all time.

Also, I forget who said something up top about a MN team, but I am here. IN MN.

incidentally, it's dj yella's birthday today.

chicago kevin, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:05 (sixteen years ago) link

Until it's hot? Just a guess.

Laurel, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:07 (sixteen years ago) link

thanks.

colette, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:10 (sixteen years ago) link

Anytime.

Laurel, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:11 (sixteen years ago) link

if it's just been refrigerated, probably won't need too long. i'd try a minute and then touch it to see how hot it is. if it's frozen, might need a couple of minutes.

n/a, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:13 (sixteen years ago) link

It's also my birthday today! Hello 30!

sweet tater, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:13 (sixteen years ago) link

thanks nick, the microwave is shared between about 20 offices, and there's always a queue to use it. i didn't have any idea if it was 30 seconds or 5 minutes, didn't want to be the asshole stopping my food every 10 seconds to try it, and googling wasn't helpful.

happy birthday kelsey! are you doing anything fun for your big day?

colette, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:18 (sixteen years ago) link

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEL KEL

Hbday Kelsey. Hbday.

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:22 (sixteen years ago) link

thanks for all the birthday wishes! i feel like i've been celebrating since friday - i flew out to DE to visit my family on thursday night & spent the weekend there eating great food, drinking great wine & just having all around excellent family time. Today I got to my office & my work friend had coated my desk & wall space with banners, balloons, confetti, etc. Another co-worker baked brownies for me & another friend brought by some flowers! It's been a wonderful day! I need to do some homework for my sound art class tonight but I'm hoping Leaf & I will eat a nice dinner together & have some snuggle time later...

sweet tater, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:24 (sixteen years ago) link

It's my unbirthday!

kenan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:24 (sixteen years ago) link

D-do you love me?
(Do you love me?)
Hey baby
D-do you love me
Uh-d-do you love me
C'mon now!
Uh-d-do you love me?
Tell me baby!

You are so hard to read, you play hide-and-seek with your true intentions. If you're only playing games, I'll just have to saaaaayayayaay Uh-buh-buh-buh-bye-bye-buh-buh-buh-bye-bye.

Jesse, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:26 (sixteen years ago) link

I bought a box of Raisinets. It feels wrong somehow to eat Raisinets at work. I should be sitting in a stadium theater seat, about to watch "Black Cop/White Cop".

kenan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:27 (sixteen years ago) link

hbkelsey!

Jordan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:28 (sixteen years ago) link

Happiest of birthdays, Kelsey, until the next one.

dan m, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:29 (sixteen years ago) link

Thanks, dudes!

sweet tater, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:29 (sixteen years ago) link

HB kels! So close to Xmas! Doesn't that cut into your overall present take?

kenan, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:31 (sixteen years ago) link

Probably? I dunno. It sucked when I was younger b/c everyone was all over giving me "birthmas" presents & I wanted a lot more presents than that. I suppose it has built up some good character.

sweet tater, Tuesday, 11 December 2007 20:34 (sixteen years ago) link

so the Reader has laid off 4 of its writers...

I wonder if they're going to keep doing those issues devoted to a single Chicago neighborhood, since Harold Henderson had a pretty big hand in the Logan Square and Uptown issues.
