Mah-tay

It's amazing how different I can feel from day to day (and the difference is especially pronounced when I don't have my tea). I think a quote from Borges is appropriate.

"Years of solitude had taught him that although in one's memory days all tend to be the same, there wasn't a day, even when a man was in jail or hospital, that didn't have its surprises."

And then

"The taste of the mate, the taste of the black tobacco, the growing band of shade that slowly crept across the patio--these were reason enough to live."

From The Wait.


On a side note
After my interview with KitchenAid, I REALLY want to work there. They made the job sound great. I can see a FUTURE with them. I just want to wear that red apron and go around operating stand mixers all day!
