at work.

How irritating - I biked in to work today, and lo and behold, the fucking product is down AGAIN, so I can't fucking test.

At least I got to bike. Home is mostly uphill though. Ah well. Exercise=good.

This way, I can go home, maybe do some sewing, definitely do some cooking... it's better this way.

If I bike in to work tomorrow (since transit is down), does that count as crossing picket lines? Because I really don't want to cross picket lines.

Today is Andrew's LAST DAY WITH THE FUCKING SHOW. Thank all the gods. Tonight, we have pot stickers and raw spring rolls to celebrate.

No, biking to work is not crossing picket lines. Unless you really want to get out of working tomorrow. Then, yes, you'd definitely crossing the picket lines of this (illegal) walkout.

Pot stickers?

Chinese 'dumplings' - kinda like gyoza only they usually have different things in them. These ones are vegetarian. I think of them like pierogies, only not so european.

lol
I totally thought something else. I was like, "stickers that you lick that have pot in them?" I was so confused.
