I maintain that having the fixings for a bacon and egg sandwich (on awesome, puffy english muffin) totally balances out the experience of having a rat run across the top of the stove while I'm cooking it. No sugar for my tea, though. I know there is sugar in this house somewhere, but I don't know where it is. It is hidden from certain housemates (Leanne) who are known to put way too much in their coffee and in their cereal (even chocolate cereal—and occasionally in their hot cocoa, and who even does that?). It's probably on some random shelf where Tony hid it. He's literally a foot and a half taller than me. I could drag out the step stool and go exploring, but this early it doesn't really seem to be worth it.

Getting up at 5 a.m. to leave just before 6 a.m. to spend two hours on public transportation with the generally skeeziness that is the city of Sacramento so that I can arrive for an 8 a.m. class. Oh, and it's probably going to rain. Yay. At least it's Image Manipulation. I sit in front of a computer for four hours play around with the tool the teacher tells me to. Not exactly rocket science. I just wish it wasn't a Mac. :(

Though the real bitch thing about this class is that it requires me to come in to finish homework on days off, because I'm too broke to have my own copy of Photoshop.

So.

.... This just made me wonder if I actually own any salt. It's likely that we do, because my aunt is the junk food queen. I mean, she'd be like your housemate Leanne. Plus she'd have toast with butter, and a slice of chorizo. And mayo. I mean, I like chorizo, but I have it... like that. Alone. Oo
Who even puts sugar in their cereals? I thought only Calvin did that. (yes, I mean Spaceman Spif)

Rat. I do love rats. I used to have one as a pet that I love. I may, or may not find it disturbing if one ran across the stove while I cooked. I can't say. I'd probably be stuck between "Hey! WTF?!" and a PTSD induced jump to the ceiling and "awwwwweeehhhhh... C'mere."

As a French gal, I don't know what a becaon and egg sandwich is, though I can imagine. And I assume it's like what we call "Croque Monsieur" (http://www.gralon.net/recettes-cuisine/aliments/aliment-croque-monsieur.htm) which litterally means "Crunch/bite Sir" (ew) and a "Croque Madame has an egg on top of it, because who doesn't want a boob analogy in their food... :/

Ugh. Your schedule. I am so bad at getting up earlier than 6:45am. :S I am okay with watching the sun rise when it's still winter or something and it rises past 7am, or if I've stayed up very very late/early. But because I rose before it... bleh.
Unless it's to catch a plane to the caribbeans, in this case I'll probably make an exception.

I understand the "Mac" problem. I have no issues with Apple, and I am an owner and addict of ipod+iphone and just wouldn't change because every other 'smart' thing I come across just seems less so in comparison... but I'm a PC girl and I'm used to it. Mac confuses the shit out of me and I've seen Macs glitch so much that the 'no issues' thing feels just like bull to me. Nah. PC. Plus they're cheaper.
If I could afford it, instead of going Mac, I'd go Alienware. Cause I'm just that kind of dork. :P

(I just blindly picked up my thermos of tea and went to drink it like it was a bottle of beer. WHY?! When have I EVER drunk beer out of a bottle? Never? Why? I never drink beer. It's foamy, it stinks and it tastes like drunken frat boys. Noooh thanks.
What the fuck, me?
Now I burned myself and I gotta change.)

Um. *cough* About photoshop.
*cough* There are ways...

Gotcha. English muffins are so hard to come by here. It sounds nice. :)

I'm a sucker for a nice hot breakfast that isn't sweet. Me too! But I guess it's not weird in the states. In France, believe me, I'm a weirdo.

Hm. I get it. Most of our cereals are pre sweetened. And the ones which aren't are allegedly 'diet' so, obviously, the people buying those are not going to add sugar to them.
I think.

*grins* I would definitely react similarly. In English, too. My exclamations are almost all in English now. From "Shit, that hurt!" to "WTF?!" to "Ha ha, you fail so hard."

I like early mornings. I just prefer them from the perspective of "late nights".
That's pretty much what I meant to say, but without being coherent enough to make a pretty sentence. *fp*

I'm not sure what an art school Marine is. Unless it involves a naked Gibbs being drawn by his team, with Tony focusing hard and biting his tongue, Ziva trying not to look sly and McGee flumbling with everything and dropping his pencils.

Though slashing your classamates? It's okay! It seems to me they were asking for it.
Also... are you *sure* you hallucinated it? *spych*

Art.... Marines...

Somehow, after your illustration of what you *saw*, my brain can't not go in the Don't Ask, Don't Tell direction.

I am SO bad.

Also, remember Chris, the neighbor I said I was converting to SPN. He met Cas tonight. Reaction.
"Damn, that guy is pretty for a badass evil son of a bitch." lol
I think he was possessed by Dean at the time.

I used to be a major PC person til my parents made me get a Mac ( I fought them SO hard about it) when I started to want to become a designer... they'd heard it was better for design work and they were so right! Now I hate PCs and LOVE Macs! I complain all the time that I have to use a stinky PC at work. Glitches? Really? I've never had any problems at all! Ever! Perhaps it's because it's shared by a bunch of people who do weird things on it.

I don't think I've ever paid for a copy of Photoshop LOL download one instead!
