I don’t usually do Thursday Thirteen – not on a regular basis, anyway. Come to think of it, I probably do them more than I do, say, Wordless Wednesday, although there are probably many Wednesdays on which I just didn’t post which, could, I suppose, be Wordless Wednesdays, but I think you have to have a really cool digital camera instead of one that has half a pixel, and…
Phew. Think you’re tired from reading that sentence? Try typing it while eating Dove chocolates. I mean, geez. You people have no idea how hard it is to be me sometimes.
The point is, the only time I do the 13 is if I have a bunch of random stuff going around in my head (no? you haven’t figured that out yet?) and couldn’t formulate much of it into anything more than, well, more than this.
Sooooo…I’m glad it’s Thursday. Because it allows me to act like a grown-up blogger and post a T-T AND get all this worthless, useless stuff out of my head and out into the blogosphere.
You know, so I can eat more candy.
- I generally love my job. In November, I adore my job. I have five paid holidays in this month alone. One of them is today.
- That’s why I’m home typing drivel and eating candy.
- Rivals.com is predicting an LSU-Ohio State matchup in the national title game. That makes me happy.
- It also makes me sad. Because it makes me miss the hell outta Blitz.
- I tried a new soup recipe out recently that I think I may end up sharing with all of you in a day or so. Get this — everyone in my family liked it.
- You have no idea how hard that is to do around here.
- Have you ever read a book that said absolutely nothing? I just finished one like that.
- This is harder than I thought. I might not make 13.
- That’s why I said, “or so” in the title.
- Did I mention that I’m off today, Tuesday, next Monday, and then the Thursday and Friday of Thanksgiving?
- I’m groaning here. I can only imagine what you that are still reading are doing.
- One more.
- Phew.
I’ll be back. Sporadically. And you will, too. Because if I didn’t do anything else today, I dangled a helluva good recipe in front of you. Just in time for a cool fall weekend.

What? Lost for words . . unbelievable, unthinkable, unimaginable . . .

5 holidays this month? Seriously? I’ll get Thanksgiving and use a vacation day for the day after. Lucky you.

Me too – about Blitz.
I made soup last night from leftovers in my fridge – including bits of pork tenderloin. It was good!

Pshaw. OSU is not worthy. They’re going to lose one if not two games before it’s over and, well, let’s just say Blue and Gold never dies without a fight.

I’m making a soup tonight that has had the whole family seal of approval on it already. Perhaps we’ll have to do “Recipe Saturdays” or something.

You’re bad. What a way to get thirteen!
Serves you right for not sharing the chocolate.
I’m looking for a LSU – WVU match-up myself and forget who, whoever is #2.
#7, gee, thanks for the concise info.
#6, if you made it, who could refuse?
and lastly,
#1, you don’t get enough time off.
1a, where’s my soup?

You are hilarious.

Hi, here via Erica(dr. bitch to you) , I figured it’d be rude not to say hi to another Erika/LSU alum. Geaux Tigers.
November 1, 2007 at 9:25 pm
That was great!
November 1, 2007 at 9:29 pm
I can’t wait for the real post.
November 1, 2007 at 10:30 pm
Are all women who’ve ever attended LSU named Erika?
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
November 1, 2007 at 10:34 pm
I had today off too! Not a paid holiday though, sadly.

This post reminds me of the story, “The Little Train that Could”.
