Me: (Putting together one of my veggie sandwiches at work)
Someone: Look at how healthy he is. He's going to sprout branches soon.
Me: I'm not all that healthy, I do spank it like a lab monkey.
(Long awkward pause)
Me: (Trying to change the subject) So how bout those lab monkeys?

I posted photos from my trip to Thailand and Laos.

I was reading an article linked from John's blog. It's about the company behind Whole Foods Markets. The CEO reads an amazing amount about anything that will help his understanding of his business. I got inspired so I decided to free up some time for reading by canceling satellite TV. They offered me movie channels and they offered me discounts but told them "thank you but that wouldn't be a good idea."

Hello words!

I've returned from points east. I'm keeping wierd hours, starting to like the dark. It's 2 am and I'm going on a walgreens run to get floss and paper to print some photos from my trip. I'll post some photos once I sift through them further. I made mayonaise, it is supposed to last a week which means I need to consume a lot of mayo in a week, sandwich party anyone? Seriously.

You know you're jet lagged when...

You alarm clock goes off at 8pm instead of 8am and it still wakes you up.

I'm off to Thailand for two weeks. There may be intermitent blogging while I'm out but no promises. Before I go, I'll leave you with this Half-Assed Homemaker Tip: Travel Edition.

Clothes pins! Pack a few if you are going to be mobile for a while. If you run out of clothes before you find a laundromat and need to rinse a few things in a sink, hang them to dry over night. If they aren't dry by morning, clip them to your backpack and let them dry in the hot sun, weather permitting.
