Streaming Media--Unavailable!
We just received a corporate company e-mail informing us that streaming media traffic will be unavailable on our area wide network tomorrow from midnight tonight through midnight tomorrow. They are doing this to “avoid a disruption of our business” that may be caused by everyone following the inauguration online. They said we can watch the inauguration on TV in the break room during...

Otto
blueeyedgreek:
On Friday night, I surprised the beau with a trip to Otto for dinner. He had gotten all four wisdom teeth out two weeks prior, and since he’s a meat/cheese/pizza man, I thought it would be a great surprise. Until we got there. A snooty hostess told us it would be at least an hour and fifteen minute wait (?!), and was surprised when I said, “that’s fine…we can order a bottle of...

When do you know for sure what you’re really supposed to be doing? With 1 career change at 25 and currently working at my new job/career for over a year now… It’s even harder during this time of economic insecurity to feel like you have the opportunity to throw caution into the wind and go back to school to establish more debt…

Don’t take shots of coffee Patron because you think it’ll help you paint. Because, it doesn’t. In fact, it fucks with your head and tells you to keep drinking and forget about your painting. And you know what? Don’t ever go outside and talk to the sixteen year old neighbor boy. He’ll ask you for some of your Patron, and you’ll give it to him because when you were his age, you would...

Cooking Blogs
Does anyone have recommendations for cooking blogs to read? Preferably ones that don’t post anything that’s too difficult to make. I’ve recently gotten into a few and I’m enjoying them. It got me motivated start cooking, but I’m taking baby steps.
Eye Doctor
I have an appointment this afternoon. I’m looking forward to it b/c I get to leave work early. I’m not looking forward to it b/c they will dilate my eyes and then let me drive home with less visual clarity than I have after drinking…wtf?

I always seem to lose things when intoxicated…but I have to say that since I moved away from NYC I have been a little better:) Maybe it’s b/c I’m just getting older? Or maybe I have realized I can’t afford to buy a 3rd camera or deal getting a duplicate...

I really want Beef Stroganoff (the best ever) and a Cannele from Balthazar asap.
Beef Stroganoff is my absolute favorite thing my mom makes. I bet it’s amazing at Balthazar!

Quiet Cubes
I think most of the people on my floor must have voted for McCain. Everyone is silent…you can hear a pin drop. I still don’t know for sure who took North Carolina b/c it’s still grey on all of the maps. I’m just happy I can be celebratory on tumblr even if I can’t with my co-workers.
Warm and Fuzzy
Reading through all of the posts this morning and looking at the pictures of people pouring into the streets is making me tear up about every 2 minutes. I may not get much work done again today, but thank you for making me feel extremely warm and fuzzy inside.

A Good Night
1. My BF got home from the film shoot he was on in Virginia for 3 days:)
2. We got yummy yummy Mexican take-out from our favorite place. We also (of course) had wine:)
3. The Obamercial was so inspiring and made me very happy that I voted yesterday. It was also perfect timing b/c my BF keeps telling me he hasn’t decided who he is voting for yet. I’m hoping this swayed him along...
