1. I completely forgot about the existence of the Whole Foods on River Street. It's much, much closer to me than the one on Prospect, and it's right by a Rite Aid, too. I went to explore WF yesterday on my break. I ended up buying salmon candy (a sweet, yummy in-house smoked salmon), some Midnight Moon cheese from Cypress Grove Chevre (an aged goat cheese, nutty and delicious), some milk for the chowder I was making for dinner, and a kilo of Fage 0%! I was like Pippin in The Fellowship of the Ring: "It comes in KILOS?!" AWESOME.

2. Life is good. Life is really awesome. I am a very happy and lucky girl. :) Few things are nicer than when shortly after you've bid one wonderful guy goodbye in the morning, another wonderful guy texts you to say good morning and that he loves you!

3. I was reading a post by deadwinter on Facebook yesterday, and who should comment on it but a coworker of mine? Now, granted, if you asked me which of my coworkers was most likely to know any of my friends, I'd have picked her without hesitation. Still, it was a surprise. But I friended her on there now. She's a pretty cool person as far as I can tell, and my Facebook page is tamer than my LJ profile and the like, so I have no qualms about that. *looks up some more stuff on Facebook* Oh gods, my manager is on there too! I could add her as a friend. I'm not sure how much I want to use Facebook for work-networking stuff... I'll have to ponder that.

4. Blazing Saddles? Damn funny. I didn't much care for the end, but all in all, there were many giggles.

On DVD. All the swears, slurs, etc. :)

I'm having the Facebook conundrum myself. I am pondering a profile, and pondering privacy and how I feel about it all. I have avoided Facebook for precisely that reason, but I may have hit a tipping point.

This weekend I will likely make a post about all this on LJ, b/c I'd like to hear opinions about how people use Facebook and deal with personal/private/family/professional all merging like that as is the likely outcome of getting on Facebook.

It takes a little tinkering, but you can be VERY granular on who you allow to see what!

[hippie1025.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm just wondering how much effort I feel like going to, ya know? It's so easy on here. Plus, I largely don't have family or work people on here.

You shouldn't make outside-friends with the people you work with. It can only lead to bad things!!! =p

miss you

Yeah, some of them are really seedy characters! :P

I agree about the ending of Blazing Saddles

That was pretty clearly an "oh god we have no idea how to end this" moment.

Very quotable bits throughout tho.

Aww, you don't like the "stick out your tush" bit? ;)

In retrospect I don't mind it. At the time I thought he was making fun of gay men and I wondered what was up. Given the really awesome gay joke in the middle of the movie
(Aw, no! Bart STRAIGHT!)
I really didn't see what he was on about.

I just feel that it's a pretty weak ending.

Oh I know it's a weak ending. I was just playing around.

Although that part of the ending *is* catchy...

(And I always saw it as making fun of Busby Berkeley movies, myself.)
