Oh joy and rapture! They fixed the ice machine!

I heart ice a lot. If you hand me a drink that doesn't have ice in it, I am overcome with sadness. I can't drink cans of soda without getting a glass of ice. I put ice in every drink that's not supposed to be hot (like hot chocolate), including wine and milk. Well, okay, not milkshakes- I knew there was an exception in there somewhere.

Anyway, I try to drink a lot of water at work. This does a couple of things. It makes me pee a lot, which makes me get out of my damn chair, and I go to the furthest bathroom from here that's still in this building (that I know of). It also does all the usual nice things that drinking a lot of water does. But the damn ice machine has been broken for over a week, and so I haven't been drinking so much water. I swear it has negatively affected my complexion already. But huzzah! I now have a giant cup nearby.

In other weird Mielikki eating habit news, I have a leg rule. Most people I've hung out with know about this. I don't eat anything that has less than 2 legs (clams, fish, snakes, Thalidomide babies) or more than 4 legs (shrimp, lobsters, crabs, those frogs in that polluted lake in Michigan or wherever it is). That basically means no seafood; the only exception to this is that I'll eat crab rangoons, but despite the name I've never eaten crab rangoon that actually appeared or tasted like it had any crab in it. If it did, I wouldn't eat it. Oh, I also eat caesar dressing and stuff with Worcestershire sauce, both of which have anchovies in them, but not so I can tell. I also hate celery.

I'm in a talkative mood. Ask me a question, query me about my interests or give me a topic to discuss and I will come up with something to say about it. It might not be a rant, but it absolutely is guaranteed to be amusing to me in some way.
