Time to make some food!
In honor of the Thirsty Thursday's of old, I will be making egg rolls. I have since lost the recipe that was handed down to me by a fellow employee. Thanks Shirley, I am sorry I had to find a new recipe. So this will be the modified recipe I will be using... I didn't type up all the steps cause I have made these before but if you have any questions, my ask box is always open. Even to anons ;)

Dear Work,
I just wanted to stop by and tell you how much I think you suck runny asshole. Anytime a computer is not working and we are not available at the drop of a hat you get upset. If the network is down and not back up in two minutes the whole tech department is to blame even though WE as a department have no control over the Comcast circuits OR power outages. I understand you all think we are some kind of computer wizards and with the flick of the wrist, wave of a wand or magic fairy dust we have the power to fix all. I think it is cute that you are so naive.
What I find very unfair is how our department is left out of everything. For example today, one of the high schools choirs came to sing and strut their stuff. Was there an invite to the techs? Did anyone peek their head in the office to see if we wanted to also hear the kiddos sing? NO! Of course not, it's not like we should be working or anything right??? Seriously payroll closes today and out the office window, who do I see standing out there gawking at singing high schoolers? The pay roll department. It is quite common that our tiny office of about 4 to 6 people is conveniently nothing more than an after thought for anything that goes on at work. It's frustrating! As a person with feelings it makes me feel like the odd man out during a dodge ball game that no one bothered to invite me to but I can see out my window. :(
No one tells us when the tamale lady is here. No one lets us know when the strawberry guy is here. No one bothers us when one of our schools is here to perform for the district office. To be honest the tech department, for as much as people NEED us, is nothing more than the red headed step child of the district office. No one interacts with us (no we are not all 500 lb, socially inept men who smell of Doritos and live in moms basement). We have feelings too and it's sad when a whole department is left out of the functions that the rest of the building is engaging in. Jerks!
Sincerely,
Super Frustrated SusieTron 5000
P.S. I hope all of your computers break while I am out to lunch!

Thanks Obi!
I needed to bring something to share today. And I share this!
Cinder block between books! Yes! Except about a month ago an old dude wearing a towel wielding a cinder block was shot and killed by 2 members of the sheriffs office. I wonder if he got to read this little activity book and that is where he got the idea from?

Why can some people not understand that women are also computer technicians?
Pfft at least I can fit behind the copier 'cause I am not pregnant with a 10 year turd comprised of Mt. Dew, Twinkies and fast food. I am glad I don’t look like what he thinks a computer tech should look like. God I get so tired and this happens more often than not where someone is like, “Uh where are the guys?” I am the fucking guys! I am one of the gang, I can fix shit yo! Ugh I need food I am feeling a headache coming on my insulin is dropping. Seriously fuck!
Note: He actually had to pull the copier from the wall because his porky piggy arms couldn't reach back there well enough. Well fucker, I set up that copier and I was able to do so with ample room for myself and my co-workers. So take that you chubnoid!

I made mochi!!!
Okay so they don't look perfect and the cell phone picture quality is bad. But they tasted sooo good! I made some with just red bean paste, some with strawberries coated in red bean paste and some frozen ones with mango sorbet in them. I will have to perfect the sorbet ones because they quickly got melty but they were still good. I got the idea to make these because I love mochi ice cream. Also cookingwithdog has this video on how to make it:
It's actually a bit harder than it looks. I had a heck of a time finding the right kind of flower and if the dough gets too cool it's hard to work with but if it's too hot it BURRRNNNSSS!
Edit: Okay okay so I made Ichigo Daifuku. I guess that's what it's really called. Mochi I guess is just the dough part.
