Finding New Things to Love

I'm in love with the radio station that we're listening to at work right now, 93XRT. Everything current and otherwise, just a good mix of music. U2, Brandi Carlile, Bob Dylan, Ben Harper, Counting Crows, Snow Patrol, Shawn Mullins, just to name a few bands that have been on that I've been keeping track of the last few hours. I'm in love. Plus, there's also This American Life! I should find a way to go to one of their live tapings....

I'm also in love with a TV dinner brand called "Eat Right" that is not available in the ATL. I had turkey slices with cornbread (just like real cornbread with cornbread consistency) topped off with a light sauce and cut carrots -- for all I knew, I was eating real food. (I know, right?)

I realized today that part of the reason that online chatting is so fun is that you can interrupt someone and you're not interrupting them. You can just keep talking if you want to and the other person can fend for themselves in terms of getting a word in edgewise. And you can always catch up with each other and read over what each of you said if there are somehow two different conversations going on simultaneously. It's one of the ultimate forms of multitasking all within one "conversation."

You sure that's not called "Eating Right", Sparky? It's a Safeway brand. I love those things-- that's usually what I have for lunch during the school year.

Yeah, that's what it is, "Eating Right." I'm a fan =) The turkey meatloaf was a little strange but the others that I've had were pretty damn good.
