Sweet and not so sweet

Holy shit, it's been so long that I forgot my password and had to come up with a new one. I might not remember this password in the future either as it involves several #'s, &'s, and %'s, but that's a chance I'm willing to take. You may ask, "Hey, Stupid, why make it so difficult?" Well,  that's the way you gotta roll, especially if you've ever been a victim of a fake Paypal request that involved you sending not only your debit card number, but your damn PIN, as well.

I haven't been around much due to work being all kinds of crazy, but that may change in the next few months if I get laid off (I work for a college and the California budget for education is in fail mode. Interestingly enough, I'm busy working on hiring a grip of full-time instructors in the midst of all this layoff talk. Say what?! Yep). So anyway, I don't know exactly what'll happen if I get laid off, but I kinda think I'll be a little happier. I'll get to sing and bake again. I'll get to spend more time with the people I love. I'll workout more.  I'll get to satisfy my Lifetime Movie Network addiction on a daily basis. You know...important stuff. Because one thing I've learned in the past few months is that life really is fucking short and there is some weird truth to death coming in 3's.

So we'll see. All I know is that I have a box of sweet potatoes sitting on my counter waiting to be turned into a pie...or casserole....or a dozen muffins (probably all 3 since I mistakenly thought Nate and I had it in us to get through a whole box from Costco on our own). They're getting old and tired and it's time to transform them into something wonderful before it's too late.
