The big giant bags of frozen garbage corn.

Yes, Dan is right. I started to post in the TJ about the big giant bags of frozen but then I got bored and when I was walking the dog I must have hit post when I put my phone in my pocket.

Opening phrase of Je55e's erotic short fiction for the big benefit.

I was just noticing a clot of people hailing cabs at Halsted and Diversey, maybe related.

Red/Brown/Purple Line Express trains are operating with residual delays, after earlier police activity at Fullerton.
― Jeff, Thursday, 2 February 2012 13:35 (twelve years ago) link
Definitely.

Bus driver says Move back make room!
Passengers squeeze by befuddled, put-upon looking girl. Mouth gawping like a fish, eyes wide and darting over the back of the bus, she wonders, What could be back there that lures the others??
― garbage corn fan (Je55e), Thursday, 2 February 2012 13:54 (twelve years ago) link
She blocks the path of a passenger trying alight. Excuse me. Excuse me! Excuse me could you please move I'm trying to get off the bus!
Girl's face crumples and she croaks Omigahd!
― garbage corn fan (Je55e), Thursday, 2 February 2012 14:02 (twelve years ago) link
I got a seat on the purple line. Whatever happened worked out well for me.

Amanda, did you see the thread about life coaches/Landmark-esque culty self-help programs? I believe that is right up your bailiwick.
― gonna give her the old fuquay-varina (Jenny), Thursday, 2 February 2012 14:47 (twelve years ago) link
NO! I love that shit.
― La Lechera, Thursday, 2 February 2012 14:48 (twelve years ago) link
I have something to tell you too, but I can't say it in public -- will email u!
I want to see CAVE and even better for free, but I'm honestly not feeling a show that doesn't start until after 10:00 PM and has at least one opening band.

Amanda, I really would like to hear your story about U-NO-HOO (rhymes with "mom eat ham jewel")
― garbage corn fan (Je55e), Thursday, 2 February 2012 15:11 (twelve years ago) link
then i expect you to attend this show with me
― La Lechera, Thursday, 2 February 2012 15:12 (twelve years ago) link
I like the Cave album but probably not enough to see a show.
― jaymc, Thursday, 2 February 2012 15:22 (twelve years ago) link
That's cold dude.
― La Lechera, Thursday, 2 February 2012 15:24 (twelve years ago) link
Sorry! I just so rarely see shows these days, my standards are probably higher than they used to be.
― jaymc, Thursday, 2 February 2012 16:41 (twelve years ago) link
:) no prob i was just kidding!
― La Lechera, Thursday, 2 February 2012 16:44 (twelve years ago) link
I think the next show I'm going to go see is the Mastodon/Opeth/Ghost show.

I have to attend a meeting at 11:30 that I fear is going to result in my workload increasing exponentially.

I was right about the meeting yay for me.
― gonna give her the old fuquay-varina (Jenny), Thursday, 2 February 2012 18:31 (twelve years ago) link
Meaning the purpose of the meeting was to inform us that from now on, we have an additional 1-3 things to write per week on top of our regular stuff.
*seething job hate*

Particularly insulted by the statement that we're not expected to work overtime or take work home since there is no other way to accommodate the increase.
― gonna give her the old fuquay-varina (Jenny), Thursday, 2 February 2012 18:34 (twelve years ago) link
sorry jenny. my work is reasonable right now but i am regretting involvement on this association committee where i'm supposed to be doing -something- but the committee head isn't doing a great job of telling me exactly what i should be doing so i feel lost and frazzled
― congratulations (n/a), Thursday, 2 February 2012 18:43 (twelve years ago) link
why why why why why did I look at the comments on the trib story about the egyptian soccer riot, it's like some kind of self-flagellation punishment
― long duk dan (dan m), Thursday, 2 February 2012 19:04 (twelve years ago) link
i somehow tore the elbow on my favorite/nicest work shirt. rip work shirt.
anyone got any recommendations for a restaurant in the loop where i can host a dinner for members of the association i'm in? preferably not super-expensive?
― congratulations (n/a), Thursday, 2 February 2012 20:51 (twelve years ago) link
I've always found it's hard to go wrong in greektown but that's not in the loop
― long duk dan (dan m), Thursday, 2 February 2012 20:54 (twelve years ago) link
I don't host a lot of association dinners, mind

Italian Village?
― gonna give her the old fuquay-varina (Jenny), Thursday, 2 February 2012 20:56 (twelve years ago) link
Not State and Lake.
― Jeff, Thursday, 2 February 2012 20:58 (twelve years ago) link
we're probably going to be doing a bigger event in Greektown in March. this is probably only going to be a few people so it doesn't have to be anywhere huge or somewhere with private rooms
― congratulations (n/a), Thursday, 2 February 2012 21:02 (twelve years ago) link
The only midrange places I can think of in the Loop are, like, Indian or Thai joints.
