We have eggs, fried potatoes and salsa pretty often, usually green,
but the last batch of red I bought was exceptionally good. I used to
work in retail, and when folks complained about Christmas Season
starting earlier every year, I'd tell them that it was a conspiracy
thought up and executed by retailers, and that they were going to keep
moving it back further and further, and eventually they could slip in
an extra Christmas in July. Then the whole process would start all
over again, resulting in there being a "Leap Christmas" every 15 years
or so.

I went in and worked for two hours today, and will probably work four
tomorrow. I hate missing work, and have rolled over the maximum
"personal time off" for the past 15 or so years, with the only
exception being the year my son was born and I took paternity leave.
Work is a big part of my personal identity, and I really love my job
and my employer.
