Keep the Change (heh, get it?)

The other day I swung by a famous fast food chain to purchase some tasty schmacos before class. I love schmacos. I'm not one to branch out and try new things when it comes to food but in the last year I discovered Cheesy Beefy Melts. They're rather awesome: cheese, meat, sour cream, a little bit of rice so you don't feel so guilty. Delicious.

So before class, I swung by the drive-thru and noticed that the menu looked different.

Look, lady. I don't know the difference between a Cheesy Beefy Melt and a regular Beefy Melt with cheese, and I don't understand the difference between a meal and combo.

I ended up with a Beefy Melt Combo, which is a Cheesy Beefy Melt meal with an additional taco, and guess what-- a Beefy Melt is exactly a Cheesy Beefy Melt.

You would think that story ends there.

Today, I was driving down the expressway and saw a billboard for Cheesy Beefy Melts. It looked like this:


Why would you remove the adjective "Cheesy" from the thing's name, then use it across TWO billboards to market the thing?!

*sigh*

Please block of the next dozen years of your calendar.

Last month at work, we rearranged about 40 cabinets, uncovering 3 or 4 different colors of paint and scratching up the floors pretty badly. I decided to put a fresh coat of paint down last Friday. It took longer than I thought, but in the middle of it, I had a LOL moment.



Uh????  It was popping up that it conflicted with other things in my schedule (imagine that!) and that I sent it to a "group."

Oh great... Who did I send it to?


Fortunately, I only invited two people to my event. Still, this is a good reminder of the things that can happen when you don't lock the screen of your touch-screen phone before putting it in your pocket.


 
I may not have butt-dialed anyone and been embarrassed that way, but I think it's worse when that
I butt-scheduled this "WwwwwwOow" event 
in the Brussels time zone
that lasted 12 years, 8 months, and a day,
and sent it to a group as an invitation.

Oy.

If you want to know what he's talking about, this is the episode.

We aren't in Tuesday today, but Wednesday is cancelled.


This was me last week.



This is me today (Monday.)




As you may have learned, I have this horrible affliction called "grad school." It's destroyed me.

I used to be like this.
But then one day, I decided I didn't have enough debt and I had too much time and happiness in my life, so I thought it would be cool to get my Masters degree.

This happened.
At first, professors lulled me into a false sense of security. I knew more than they were teaching, assignments were a joke-- grad school was easy!

But then they realized what they were doing.

They put their evil forces together, just like in that Batman movie where Chris O'Donnell played hot Robin, only I have no hot Robin. I have these guys:

(Love you guys!)

Once Evil united, I was pretty much screwed. It went like this:




Hence:



You'll see a lot of that blank expression, I think.

Oh, and because I don't think my picture was clear enough, here's a breakdown of my life before:
