I wondered what chaud meant, figured it was something warm since it was in the hot chocolate name.

Also, they listed a red beer as rousse so maybe it's not rouge.
I learned my French growing up in a chateau on a vineyard in Burgundy. Now I'll just go back to smoking my cigarettes and eating this cheese you American swine.

*note: approximately none of this is true

new computer arrived. I had made it clear to first person I dealt with that I needed a larger amount of space than was standard. This was sent to person who ordered my computer. Third person brings it to me and I check before we do anything that involves work for me (they'd already spent time formatting it and all that jazz)

Between the free space on the new and the used on my current, I was going to have 3GB of free space left. I can't even. That would be gone within a month. Third person is like yeah looks like they underestimated what you needed. IDK how, since I showed them how much I was using. Whatevs, this person was nice and has put in a request for me to get a much, much larger one. I predict a fight on that. Probably wanting me to switch to a desktop.

This is all because something got screwed up when they put a larger drive into my current computer a couple years ago. Because that computer was too small and I ran out of space after like six months. Hell, the laptop I'd gotten for Christmas to look at cats on the internet was more powerful than that was! Just give me the larger drive and we'll all be happy!

I hate switching computers.

IOS 10 is killing my phone's battery. My phone went from 50% to 17% in a hour.
I think our young lad is getting serious about his education after not getting admitted to his college of choice. There's only one grammatical error in two sentences and that's because there's a silent consonant.

How many cats do you look at on the internet?
 
oooo malamutes are pretty too. My brother got a husky a few years ago (we've both always liked them) and he's a great dog. But I know they can be touchy. I don't plan on getting a pet until we have kids old enough to help care for it anyway.

My other brother just got a blue heeler and oh my goodness, so cute.

not that many. More trying to make a point that a laptop meant for browsing the interwebs at home was more powerful than my work one. I remember googling the one they had gotten me and it wasn't even in Dell's lineup anymore. Because their basic model (which was my personal one) was bigger.

I actually just got the email saying it's been ordered. I'm a bit shocked, last time, my boss had to go several rounds before they would approve it. Even though it came out of my boss's IT budget. So yay.
 
he said we could keep it in the basement. And let it run around the yard. I said but we don't have a fence, what about the gazillion children in the neighborhood?

"They'll learn"

Strangely enough, there's an entire chapter devoted to this exact situation in The Origin of Species.
