Today at work, I turned up my nose at the food being served in the cafeteria, preferring instead to take the half-portion of pasta from the other day from the fridge and heat it up. I opened it up and thought, &#8220;Oh! How strange! This is chicken &#038; sun-dried tomato tagliatelle and I thought it was bacon &#038; chanterelle mushroom with curly noodles&#8230;oh well, whatever&#8221; and I put it in a bowl and popped it into the microwave.<\/p>\n<p>Whereupon it struck me (smote me? why so violent with the realizations?) that it SHOULD have been bacon &#038; chanterelle, hrm&#8230;so I did some digging in the refrigerator (which, YUCK, colleagues, throw your old food away once in a while, wouldya?) and lo and behold, there it was! With Monday&#8217;s date on the lid, while the chicken &#038; tomato tin was dated LAST WEEK. Double-hrm. <\/p>\n<p>In the same vein, I asked for photo requests 2 weeks ago, and last week the kids and I responded to the only other request besides <a href=\"http:\/\/kejn.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">kejn<\/a>&#8216;s (which as you know was IMPOSSIBLE OH MY GOD, DO NOTHING? FOR NO ONE? SIT STILL??? *blank look* HUH??)  that I had gotten&#8230;except I DIDN&#8217;T REMEMBER that, in fact, I had gotten a third request which I had registered initially and then spaced completely due to the ensuing conversation about sushi possibilities AND the fact that it was semi-hidden in a numbered list, and everyone knows I have a mental block about math. Shut up. It&#8217;s not my fault. It was that darn Mrs. Brown in 5th grade. I blame her unreservedly.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway. <a href=\"http:\/\/brief_therapy.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">brief_therapy<\/a> asked for photos of my closet. I wasn&#8217;t allowed to clean it out first, more&#8217;s the pity. But if you are even remotely interested, here is my closet.
