OK, now let’s be miscellaneous.

Whew! That was a BUSY day at work! I guess I do
more than I think I do during the course of a week, since I spent most of today
doing last week’s work. And no, smarty pants, I didn’t finish it all today. I’ll
probably finish the rest of it in the morning.

I have over 100 unread blogs on my reader. This
is two days worth. I think I see what may be using up all of my time – since not
playing games hasn’t seemed to decrease the amount of time I spend on my
computer. There’ll be some skimming going on tonight…

I’ve been laughing all day because my
affirmation for the day is “I let serenity flow into my life.” First of all, I
was sitting up in bed looking at it last night & dropped it on the floor –
and almost fell out of bed trying to pick it up. Then this morning my car had
issues. It finally started, but then when I got to work my desk was piled up
with stuff to do. Definitely not a serene start to my day. But every time I
thought of my affirmation I laughed because it was so funny - & I think
that laughter definitely leads to serenity. Eventually. Heh.

Last week Dr. M was talking to his boss on the
phone about his fall schedule & what classes he will teach. Then I heard
him start talking about Zoroastrianism.
That’s my hubby – historian and expert on religions of the world. And who talks
about that with their boss?

I picked Kansas to win the NCAA tournament. As I
recall, I picked
Kansas last year too & they got knocked out in the second round. Let’s
see if this year can be just as exciting!

I leave you with this photo, taken somewhere in
West Virginia. What more could anyone want?
Oh man. Deep fried bologna.
ReplyDeleteWow.
That explains a lot ...
A good cardiologist.
ReplyDeletedeep fried what exactly?
ReplyDeletein scotland you can get deep fried mars bars - so who are we to talk?
Echoing DFTP. What is Bologna other than a city? They can deep-fry a whole city!?
ReplyDeleteSeveral things about bologna:
ReplyDeleteThis picture was taken in southeastern Ohio, not West Virginia.
It's pronounced "baloney" in the U.S., and it's a lunch meat that in its classic form is made from pork, mostly (there are variations made from beef or poultry or a combination of meats). You really don't want to know more than that.
It can be eaten as a cold cut, but most Southerners prefer it warmed in a skillet. Deep fried? That's new to me. I guess it holds in all the fat that comes out when you brown it in a pan. Yeesh!
B.o.l.o.g.n.a is stamped into the minds of every American our age, thanks to this commercial from the early '70s: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmPRHJd3uHI
It is a masterpiece of branding.
My husband loves fried bologna (I've never heard him talk about the deep-fried version). I guess it really isn't that different from any other um, processed meat, like a hot dog. I've never been a bologna fan.
ReplyDeletewe fry bologna sometimes but not deep fried...
ReplyDeletewe've had fun poking at our anomalies ;)
Now I've got a craving for a fried bologna sandwich! LOL
ReplyDeleteSeriously, have you ever had one? Gotta use gummy white bread, mayo, just a hint of mustard and fry the bologna until it's charred. YUM!
@Kim: I should have said "blackened in a skillet" above...that really is the only way to eat it! Throw it in a hot pan and fry it, definitely. I could go for a fried bologna sandwich right now, in fact.
ReplyDeleteWell....my family...from the south by the way...used to eat fried bologna at least once a week. We cut the edges so that it wouldn't curl up. I have not had it since I moved out of my parents home over 40 years ago. Dr. M leads an interesting life. I think studying religion and teaching it would be fun...and history also. Dana...100 blog list...wow! I am honored that you still visit me...my blog is not very interesting...ha.
