Put flowers in it.


What about the distinctive scent?

Open all the windows. All of them.

That would be $12.5k in credits taken out of the system from one auction, assuming they were all bought in 2000 credit packages.

Oh, the sweet taste of jealousy. If only my own coding project would go faster. sad.gif


This is why, were I to win hundreds of millions of dollars in a lottery, I'd just throw $50k at IRE and call it a win. No more jealousy.

There are some days when depression hits harder than it usually does.

Those pigeons that live in the Victoria Coach station. I really dislike pigeons. angry.gif

I was eating escargot from a can, and thought they tasted good until I looked more closely at them and realized how much they look like what they actually are. Ick.

Edit: And now I'm feeling sick. Ick again.

You were eating snails from a can, and you got disgusted by the fact that they looked like snails. YLINA.

I've had snails before, and don't generally get disgusted by what food looks like. When I had them before, though, they had some sort of fancy cheese sauce on them. I didn't put any sauce on them this time, thus my being grossed out. Learning experience!

Escargot is awesome. dazed.gif I've only ever eaten them with melted butter, so I am used to what they look like. I'm...not sure I would eat them out of a can though. I'm a little wary of canned meat that isn't tuna.

I'm a little wary of canned meat that IS tuna.

Dolphins suck anyway. It's probably better for the ocean at this point if we ate more dolphin than tuna. rolleyes.gif I'm far too in love with canned tuna (no matter what might be actually in it) to consider it something to be afraid of. However, things like canned chicken make me recoil in horror. CANNED CHICKEN? Why is that even a thing?

I suppose I should have just put something on them. Eh, I have some left, I'll try again in a few days. unsure.gif

Hands off the dolphins!

Only ever had snails once (had to use the fancy utensiles to get them out the shells and everything), blimey that was delicious. Don't even remember what the occasion was tongue.gif

I felt a bit disoriented woking up at 12 nn today..then I drank hot choco and my acid reflux decided to play peek-a-boo with me. I then developed headache which I cannot attribute to looking at my pc's screen too much because it throbbed again only after drinking another cup of hot choco later in the day. And now I'm afraid I feel general body malaise. Only thing that cheers me up right now is those two pictures of Chione (my soon-to-be pet husky puppy). How I wish I can go get her now. sad.gif

Just out of curiosity, why doesn't that same 'reasoning' apply to tuna?

Because I grew up with it so I'm used to it. I'm not going to pretend I have some infallible logical reasoning for it- I feel pretty guilty about eating tuna, and I kind of pick out any pieces that don't look absolutely perfect in the can (a little brown on one side? Gross gross gross. DOWN THE DRAIN WITH THEE!) but ohhh I cannot give up the love of my childhood, a tuna fish sandwich with pickles. suspicious.gif

I'm sorry tunas... T_T
