student: nice rainboots
me: thanks
student: you know it's not raining today
me: weather.com's app said it was this morning. plus i stepped in a huge puddle when i got out of the car this morning.
student: yeh it rained a lot last night
me: plus i haven't been able to shower in days, and i really need to shave my legs


no, i didn't really say the last line out loud. this no hot water thing is really changing how i have to dress though. thank G-d i wear a sheitel....

oddly specific

I get sent on annoying errands for work all the time. They're especially annoying when they involve vague (non kosher) food requests. If i had an assistant, i think i'd still do all my own work (too much of a control freak) except it would be handy to send her on annoying errands. I'd have to be annoyingly specific though.... please pick up a small fountain soda. flavor: dr pepper. if no dr pepper, a pepsi. if no pepsi, cherry coke is ok. if no cherry coke, nothing. no cans and no bottles, fountain only. if you can fill the cup yourself, tilt the cup and hit the lever so the soda hits the side of the cup and not the bottom (decreases the foam), stop every few seconds and re-start, i think it makes it more syrupy that way.

i have issues.
