Dorkitude (I still has it)

[evilhippo]

Question of the moment:

Do I make this the wallpaper on my laptop at work? (There's got to be some way to get it through their heads that yes, I am more unfathomably dorky than they can fail to fathom.)

In other news... it's hot out, I want to go swimming, I'm working late for the next epic forever to make up for missing Monday, and I've made approximately 50 words of progress into that essay I'm writing for a job that I won't name because every time I mention something specific, either I freeze up and don't apply, or just get ignored, and I... can't deal with that any more. So... yes. Life continues to be unexciting, somewhat frustrating, and (thankfully) full of shopping at ethnic grocery stores to keep things interesting (I can kind of read Spanish! But only the bits that are cognates with French or English, and I continue to confuse the words for "milk" and "caramel". Probably because I don't know the word for caramel.)

I would say yes. You should. As it is what I have just done. >>

Furthermore, yum ethnic food!

Actually you are close. Dulce de leche is caramel (a special sort) and leche is the word for milk.

Ethnic food makes somewhat limited food budgets so much better. I don't know what I'll do when I live someplace that doesn't have all sorts of random little neighborhoods full of shops.

That would be why I confuse the two. Now I know, though. What's the general word for caramel?
