Saturday night on the couch

Joanna was at the HelpLine training which was a good time, because I love me some Joanna - have since she did a post-training sit-in shift with me back in the day. (If by "back in the day" you mean a couple of months ago.) Much fun was had, as well as a little Friendster stalking which has become my new pasttime ever since I found some chick I went to high school with who now lives up in Portland (ME) and works in the social services. Viva les social services!

I met Jen at the Pru for some delicious burrito action and Qdoba proved once again that they are sub-par compared to fantabulous Chipotle by giving me the wrong salsa and also making my burrito so giant and sloppy that it burst out and oozed everyone. BURRITO FOUL!

Since I got home, I haven't really left the couch much. Slovenly Saturday. I have the television on for noise and I think it's "America's Most Wanted" which I think drops me into an even lower level of lame. Do people even watch this show anymore? I didn't even know it still existed.

I've been reading Lies My Teacher Told Me. Has anyone else read it? Thoughts?

I really liked it on first reading about ten years ago; it was okay on rereading a few years ago.

If you like it, there's a companion book to it, Lies Across America: What Our Historic Sites Get Wrong (ISBN 1565843444).

I always have a long list of books I want to read, but I'll definitely check that one out, maybe after I finish Roots.
