I totally fell asleep by accident last night and now... I'm awake. Odd.

[Miranda.]

Why does the bottle have a picture of an octopus tentacle on it?... This purply-pinky thing with suckers... Does it smell like sea-food? Not a good car smell

It is seafood flavor. I'm just really into sushi.

I'm feeling like its a 2 bottles of wine with dinner kind of night. Prepare the drunk thread!

Ick. Okay, so that turned into a bad idea

The Internet has failed me.   

I went looking for videos of tracheotomy patients covering their favorite songs and came up empty handed.

If I hadn't called into work, I'd probably still be there. I need a new job...

Those who have experience traveling abroad:

In a future trip (not next month), how do you plan how much you will probably expend on food?  How about where you are going to stay?

Thanks.

Usually guide books and websites for the country have that kind of information. Where are you planning on going?

I decided to write something, and I just finished the first chapter. Am inexpressibly proud of myself. It's still just the first draft, obv, but it exists and that makes me feel like I just ingested all the souls of purgatory and have powered-up to a deific degree.

It really does depend on where you're going. If you were to go to Ireland, you would spend a lot on food, but if you were going to Thailand, you would spend very little.

Would anyone be willing to help me learn the chords to the acoustic, piano version of "Carry On" by fun.? I want to do a cover of it for my school's talent show, and I know the chords are F and Bb, but I'm unsure of what the fingering is...

I've look a few guides I found in one local book store here, but that one was more the kind "Im rich and I can afford Michelin guide restaurants". Not the kind of trip Im planning, not the kind of place I would dig.

It really does depend on where you're going. If you were to go to Ireland, you would spend a lot on food, but if you were going to Thailand, you would spend very little.

Im planning to visit England and Wales, but in 2015 only.  I'm trying to build a basic sheet of costs (using local inflation to have more a real value) to have an idea of how much I need to save. Since I know it is impossible to make a projection of how much I will expend on food, I was wondering if people more experienced on traveling  would give me a general idea of how they plan these costs.

About where you are going to stay, I'm finding difficult to calculate cost/benefit - since I plan to visit more than one city, will be more wise to sleep at every city or make daily train trips (for instance)?  But I realized that that was a too generic and broad question. So, never mind it. =P

ok, you can get a pub lunch for around £3 to £7 and a restaurant dinner for about £6 to £9. A pint is ~£3. As for places to stay, I usually go for hostels as they are the cheapest options and sites like hostelbookers.com have reviews and prices as well as booking. If you are looking for something a little nicer B&Bs in pubs are often a good choice especially in more rural areas. Travelodge is a chain of budget hotels that are basic but clean and good for traveling around the UK, they have a site where you can check prices in various locations. I would stop in different cities, hotels are usually about the same price wherever you go, excluding London which is much more expensive. However trains can be very expensive if you zig-zag across the country. I hope this helps!

This silk scarf I stole from the clothes my brother left behind looks so damn good under this peacoat.

Watching a Knight's Tale. Haven't been this happy since... Well, since yesterday, when I watched the Emperor's New Groove.

I want to quit my job. I will do nothing but read books, snuggle with my husband, play video games, and occasionally buy shining things on the internet. And they live happily ever after.
