Mazel tov!

If you haven't already, I'd stall on going in to work as long as possible. Make sure you don't smell like booze when you go in!  

[Cyrrex]

If you woke up drunk, you're going to stink for hours.  Better to just stay home.

My vice president, producer, and others were there watching me drink.

They are all quite aware that I am incredibly fucked up atm.

On beds: Do you guys rotate your mattresses? One downside to a pillowtop is you can't flip it, so I've been rotating it religiously to try and keep it evenly worn.

I don't think rotating your mattress does crap for you. But it does make you feel better, somehow.

We broke down and bought the Sleep Number equivalent from Denver Mattress and we like it a lot. Don't have to flip it and we each get our own setting for how firm our side is. Plus the pillowtop is super comfy.

You forget, schild works in the game industry.

Schild got a job?  I'm behind on all the new news. 

Congrats Schild.

You must weigh as much as your wife, then.  It's made a noticeable difference in wear on our new bed vs the full-size of the same type we had when first married.

[Yegolev]

You paint an interesting picture.

I get pie in seventy minutes.

Congratulations.

[Nebu]

Now I want pie.  Damnit. 

[Yegolev]

Thirty-five minutes until key lime.

I just had a massive Chipotle burrito.  For those of you that haven't tried it, Chipotle is surely the best damn fast food on earth.  As a result, I don't even want any pie.

[Nebu]

Chipotle is the only fast food I will eat.  Ok, that and blue coast. 

Pretty damn good stuff and a favorite of my daughter.  Win-win for me.

Have you tried the Chipotle iPhone app for ordering?

[Cyrrex]

No, and here is why:  when you order a burrito, they line up at least 3 and sometimes 4 people to make your burrito.  It is really, really fast.  My colleague used the iphone app the other day, and all it really bought him was the equivalent of cutting ahead of one person in line.  He was at the table and ready to eat no sooner than the rest of us. 

[Yegolev]

Surely he felt more smug?

[Merusk]

The divot on the side of the bed isn't like Flintstone's comedy huge, but if you lie on the bed you do notice it sort of slants that way.  My wife weighed 115 and I weighed 210 when we were married.


Chipotle makes me ill as the amount of lime in the rice disagrees with me.  As a result I find Moe's to be superior and just wind up eating Tacos when the office goes to Chipotle.. which seems a waste.

[Cyrrex]

Surely he felt more smug?

Very much so.  I would argue, though, that the few minutes he spent typing in his order, having the app crash, and re-typing it just ends up being more hassle.  To make matters worse, when he went to the front of the line to pick up his order, they said "oh shit, we forgot" and went off to make the burrito (at a special location in the back, oddly)...which is pretty much what I told him was likely to happen.  The best thing about that app is that it is so unnecessary that it is funny.

Speaking of phones and food, my wife called me while I was trying to take pie and ice cream onto the elevator.  Her mutant power is Calling At Bad Times.

Normally I don't go down for the pie-and-cake thing but I felt like it today.  I was going to look at all the moochers I usually ignore, but that got old within half a minute.

[voodoolily]

I don't get any pie for 2.5 more months. 

[Cyrrex]

Being pregnant means you can't have pie?  The way I remember it (from my wife, silly), being pregant scales positively with overall consumption of pie.

The only time i get to partake in the goodness of Chipotle is when I visit my friends in Chicago. We have a place up here called Salsarita's that's set up the same way but it's like comparing Eli to Peyton. Good but not great.

[Ingmar]

Chipotle is ok but I basically live in burrito heaven so there's no reason to ever go there.

I just got diagnosed with gestational diabetes on Tuesday.

Chipotle came to university of Maryland in the summer of 2001. It was one of the first locations and by far their most profitable. I ate there straight for 3 months. It made the owners of that location "moneyhats" to the point that one of them left after the first year.

Two things:
1. You eat the rice and tortilla? Congrats, it's worse than McDonalds for you.
2. That shit will get you fat and is not worth it.

Edit: It's competitors like Moe's and Barbacoa aren't anything to write home about either, but I don't think they use as much butter in their rices. Moes however puts nacho cheese on half their burritos.

Oh, also, in 2002 I discovered California Tortilla, then UMD got their own in 2003ish. I did not go to Chipotle again until Texas. We might have gone twice in Arizona, but not at my request, it was the worst fexican in the state.

Nawwwww. Carbs get a bad rap. Its the saturated fat that will actually kill you.

[schild]

Yea, it's the butter.

Edit: Chicken Burrito with beans/veg, sour cream, salsa and cheese is over a thousand calories and 30g of fat. Fun Fact: Take away the cheese, it's still over a thousand calories and over 30g of fat.

[Ingmar]

Ah, yeah. I typically order brown rice in my burritos these days. I dunno if Chipotle offers that, though.

[Salamok]

I prefer Changos if you are in Austin, it is fast cheap and good.  The Guacamole Maximo burrito is dah shit.

They do not. They offer butter saturated cilantro rice (that's amazing, because it's pure fat). They can't even make healthy salsa.

Well, never gonna eat there. Not sure they could have shittier locations.

[Nebu]

I get my chiopotle with very little rice, no cheese, and no sour cream or guac.  It's not low cal, but it's significantly better than any other fast food save maybe an undressed/no cheese 6" subway sub.
