Unrelated and possibly uninteresting short paragraphs about today

This morning I was stretching out my messed-up back (T3-4 right side narrowing) and shoulder and unexpectedly stretched it properly and successfully. The relief was so intense I nearly passed out. Thanks, God. It’s about 50% better now. Spent some time thinking about the metaphor of relief being its own shock today, because it was quite a ride. Almost made me nauseous.

Good conversations today with [livejournal.com profile] vegemitelover, [livejournal.com profile] klikitak, and others.

Our tile guy is a nice fellow but a flake. He disappears for hours at a time and always has some involved, church-related reason for this that indicates that he is a good person who helps others. I think that’s true, but also that he covers up a lot of general flakiness with that excuse.

Can anyone remember the name of the Mexican restaurant in Office Space? I know the other two were Tcotchkie’s and Flingers, but I can’t remember the name of the Mexican one.

I don’t think I’m going to lend out my Leatherman to people who do home surgery on themselves at outdoor cafes. It’s kind of gross.

Hey [livejournal.com profile] joyfulagitator, how was the “Sound of Music” sing-along? Did you get to projectile-vomit?

I came within an inch of spontaneously driving to Las Vegas today. Good/bad thing I’m broke.

Was it Pablo O'Brien's?

Chilies?

I seem to remember Joanna's line as "When you say next door, do you mean Chilies or Flingers?"

"PC Load Letter"? What the fuck does that mean?

So I watched the movie again, why not, and (according to the subtitles) the restaurants are

- Chotchkie's (where she works)
- Chili's (the only name I recognize, and the one that is never shown)
- Flinger's (where they go)

I've been to Chili's. I wouldn't consider it a Mexican place.
