Stupid Uninformed Metro Riders

I don't think there's any other city that gets more ticked off at people for not following the unspoken (yet highly known) rules of their metro system than those of Washington DC. Today a woman slipped her hand in the door of the train as it was closing and held us up a couple minutes, when the door finally opened she popped her head in and asked, "does this train go to Union Station." A collective "NO!" came from us witnessing the incident and as the door shut on the confused woman, we all gave each other the obligatory shaking of the head and sighs of exasperation at those folks who hold us regulars up. ARGH!

2010

In 2010 I will blog more (I hope...and at least while I remain unemployed). Pretty much since I woke up I've been having all kinds of thoughts....too many to track in any other outlet and since I have no one here to talk to besides me cat....blogosphere ftw.

Listy Goodness:

Woke up saying oh god oh god oh god...and I stayed in last night (well except for those few hours I went out)! Really its all cooking related....do not drink late and leave oven unattended! Though I cannot share my cooking disaster without incriminating myself I can tell you....well....its bad but momentarily being resolved.

The whole Angel/Cordelia love thing always really bothered me. Has anyone else been re-watching on TNT? Since I haven't had a lot to do recently, Ive been DVR-ing the eps...I wish Cordelia would just get evil already and go away. I really want to like her, and I do in the first couple seasons, but being first a Buffy fan, the Angel/Cordelia "relationship" REALLY bugs me. It doesn't seem right. Does anyone else out there feel the same way?

I could seriously eat Hollandaise/Bearnaise ALL THE FRIGGIN TIME. Why is it so good on so many different things? This year I hope to become an home-made accomplished Saucier.

Why are all holidays synonymous with drinking? Thats not good for the people of Earth is it? Or maybe Ive been living my life an entirely wrong way? Please show me the light w/o using religion. I triple dog dare ya.
