Unconscious Mutterings
Week 253
Say … and I think … ?
1. Master:: He-Man… Master of the Universe. Remember that cartoon?
2. Tour :: My current tour of duty at my job is 8:15 - 4:45, Monday through Friday.
3. Input :: I provide a lot of feedback and input in group meetings… sometimes too much.
4. Downtown :: Seems like the powers that be are working on getting Downtown St. Louis back together, with reconstruction of lofts, construction of new homes, but I do not see many positive things in the job market.
5. Pricey :: Food is very pricey in the grocery store these days. Particularly, a gallon of of milk ($4.00 at Family Dollar, but only slightly over $3.00 at Walmart), cheese, eggs and meat (poultry and beef). If I could afford organic foods on a regular basis, I would buy them… but they are even more costly than the regular hormone-stuffed foods.
6. Acceptable :: Do you keep up with your job’s acceptable quality level?
7. Terrace :: Here is a terrace with a beautiful view in Switzerland.
8. Sunday :: I love Sundays because I am off from work… but hate Sunday nights because I am that much closer to going to work on Monday.
9. Payoff :: I really wish that I could payoff my student loans.
10. Jack and Jill :: went up the hill to fetch a pail of water. Jack fell down and broke his crown, and Jill came tumbling after.

Oh, I remember He-Man…and Oh, I remember He-Man…and Sheera?
Great mutterings! :)
Bringing back memories.. Bringing back memories.. talk about making me feel old..
I want to be on that terrace in Switzerland - what a fantastic view! Your Master of the Universe reminded me of Tom Wolfe's book, The Bonfire of the Vanities. Wish I'd thought of it when giving my own answers - I like yours better.
I know what you mean about Sunday evenings - I feel the same way.
So home come when I hit So home come when I hit 'subscribe' on my google reader it says 'no feed'?

The day i finished paying my student loans (i think i finished paying my car note the same day) was the happiest day of my life up to that time!!!
Switzerland is beautiful…but the Swiss seemed to give me and my (african-american) female friend crappy ass attitude and were rude as hell. Mind you, I DO speak a little French. We both agreed that if either of us became president of the USA, we'd occupy their asses using military force amd the country of Switzerland would become the 51st state…

I can sympathize with the price of groceries! I am lucky because there is a lot of cheap organic produce where I am (Oakland CA) but it is balanced out by very high prices on a lot of things including groceries in general. It took me a while to figure out which store had the cheapest cheese, who had the cheapest cream and yogurt, where to get the good produce cheap… but at least it's one of those things where once you've done the research you're pretty much set.
You might want to check out the grocery business I just started. I send people a weekly box with a suggested meal plan, recipes, and groceries, so all they have to do is cook. Sometimes there are perishables that I can't send, but it's still so much easier to go buy eggs than to go buy everything you will need for several weeks at a time. And the real benefit, I think, is that around here there is a huge emphasis on organic food so it's actually pretty easy for me to fill the boxes with mostly-organic stuff. I need to write more about that on the website! http://fortydollargourmet.com/peacemeals
