Coffee cup circle

I decided to put on a freshly washed black T-shirt today that I noticed had a bit of lint on it. An hour after I was wearing it I noticed a white mark on it so started flaking it off thinking it was dried laundry soap.

Upon closer examination and more scratching with my fingernail, the mark turned into a perfectly shaped white circle. I felt as though I was uncovering a treasure to unearth buried Indian handicrafts.

Using a bit of water and a nearby jacket I diligently continued rubbing the circle off. Soon, I began to smell the scent of old coffee around me. You know the kind…it’s on your car seat and in your cup holder.

I smelled the ring on my shirt and low and behold – I have a stinky ring on my shirt.
Who the hell would put a leaky cup of coffee cup on someone’s newly washed shirt? It was down in the laundry room on the drying rack. I don’t see how that could have been possible.

Here’s what I’m thinking: Someone went down to do laundry with a coffee in their hand. They were being stupid by doing too many things at once and spilled the thing. They looked around for a place to put it down and since there was only my white deep freezer, they needed a rag or coaster. The only thing near was my rack of clothes. They took the darkest shirt so the coffee wouldn’t show up and used my shirt as a frickin’ coaster. They did their business, put my shirt back and left.

I’m making a new peeve. “People who use other people’s black t-shirts as coffee cup coasters.”

Subway and landscaping

I just ate a subway 6″ turkey sub – I think.
I’m not sure if I imagined it or I ate it. From what I remember, it was two very thin cuts of meat, the bread weighed like nothing and had no taste and crumbled in my hands. I’m as hungry as I was before the dream happened but I know it must have been real because there’s 5 bucks missing from my wallet and coins in my pocket that weren’t there before.

Subway stopped cutting their bread down from above in a wedge shape because since they’ve started making their own bread it’s only 1/2 as high.

On another note: I wanted to put a rock pathway around my patio with stepping stones. I found the free stones from the side of a road that normally cost $5 each which leaves me needing the small river wash pebble stuff. I needed a lot of it and it’s $5 a bag at Home Depot. I figure I needed about 40 bags at least. I found this place on the side of the road that almost looks like a strawberry U-Pick. It’s got mountains of different rocks and landscaping stuff with a guy in a little hut and tractor. It’s $30 for a tractor bucket full or $8 a large recycling bin so I got 3 bins that cost me $20. It’s about 300 lb of rock sitting in my car so I might need new shocks tomorrow and a new back. I can get both at Canadian Tire.

Sugar ratios

Purpose: One sugar is too sweet in a small coffee.

Experiment: I order a medium coffee with one sugar and it’s still too sweet. As liquid volume grows and sugar stays the same, net sweetness should decrease.
False.
I order an extra large coffee with one sugar, it was almost sweeter than the small.

Conclusion: They don’t know what the hell they’re doing.

Also, the new triple chocolate donut from Tim Hortons is horrible. This was the first time I’ve thrown out a half eaten donut.

It’s out of my hands

It’s a bad idea to say “It’s out of my hands” at a business meeting.
