the tragedy of me

heavy sighs my friend.

things are rough.

see. here i am sitting at work. eating smarties. and i don't even really like smarties. i don't NOT like smarties, exactly... but they're pretty low on the list of candies that i'd go for if i had the choice.

i wanted to get a kitkat. from the box of leftover halloween candy that dale brought in to the work kitchen. i got up specifically to go get a kitkat. but when i got to the box there were only about 3 kitkats left. and maybe 2 coffee crisps. and, oh 3 or four aeros. and there were about 8 smartie boxes left.

and lame old emotional unhinged me... i thought:

'poor smarties!'

so even though i wanted a kitkat, i took some smarties. cause i didn't want them to feel bad about being the least favourite of the leftovers. being a leftover in the first place is hard enough, i'm sure, for a candy bar.

sigh. sometimes i think i'm broken.

meanwhile!

check out these tarts jeff and i ate the other night!!! they were from frangipane in my old dupont-hood, and they were FREAKING AWESOME!!! lemon meringue and what was supposed to be brandy-pear with frangipane, but we suspect was actually something-apple and frangipan. but who cares! it was delicious. the frangipane is really what mattered most. so. great work! eating is the best.

i am on day 11 of 18 days in a row of working! some days 2 jobs in one! i'm a bit tired. my legs are sore. from the walking.

so there's not much time for much aside from eating and sleeping and HANGING OUT WITH MARGENE! she is the best. this week we found an off-leash park right near us that is actually well fenced and gated, so i can let her off-leash! and she can run around, which is great! and look what she can do:



yup! anyways. it's an all margene post, which i'm sure you were really dying for. cause she is the best.

here are some hilarious pictures of her being the best.










and here is a video of her chewing. she's great at chewing.
