So I got my H1N1 shot yesterday. Before jabbing me the doctor said cheerfully, "You have the perfect arm for needles, just so you know!" OMG. Gimme the shot w/o the commentary, doc. I already know that I have upper arms that [profile] jade_okelani calls "matronly" ... I am so envious of all those celebrities with their skinny upper arms ... anyway, I don't need to be reminded of what I lack. Also? Great for needle punctures isn't exactly a great consolation prize.

I have my car back. *jumps for joy* Oh in-dash navigation, backup camera, seat warmers, radio that tells me what song is playing, climate control, MP3 plug, one-push windows down, I'll never take you for granted again! I was considering turning in this car once my lease is up, but now I'm thinking I may just keep it. I've already put lots of $$ into it and I love it, so why not. Plus after the accident it'll be worth less on the market anyway.

It is so ridiculously cold here. In the winter I remember why I despise living here so much. I haaaaaaaaate the cold. The only saving grace is that it's sunny. But that's why it's cold, because there's no cloud cover. So it's like, do I wish for gloomy clouds or warmer weather? That's my crappy choice here in the NW. -.-

One of my coworkers wore a jacket the other day that I totally coveted. It looked super warm, but was stylish at the same time. I asked what kind of jacket it was, and he was like, "Oh, it's from Patagonia. You should totally get one." So I check out Patagonia, and find this really awesome lightweight down jacket (intended for skiing, but I get cold easily!). But guess what. IT'S $600. OMG. That is reDONK. That's when I notice that most of their regular jackets run about $250+. And here I was thinking that I would 'splurge' and spend $100 on a nice jacket! Crazy. I guess this is why eBay is my friend.

Oh, I have another great place to eat (hot sandwiches): Tubs Gourmet Subs. They only have 2 locations, and they're both nearish me, but god their sandwiches are good. The bread is fantastic and grilled just right (we've tried several times to get them to divulge where they get their bread, to no avail), and many of their sandwiches use a garlic mayo that's really yummy. Most sandwiches also come with a hot BBQ dipping sauce that really adds oompf to the sandwich (though of course you can get without). My and S.'s fave sandwich is the Firecracker, but the Joker's Dip is good too, and they have weekly sandwich specials that I haven't regretted getting also. Really, just about anything there is good.
