Alright, I found this via the Very Good Taste blog and it's really entertaining. He put together a list of 100 food items every omnivore should try, and it's a little scary how many creepy things I've tried—61/100 on this list.
Instructions
2) Bold all the items you’ve eaten.

We're on day two of the move and almost everything is done. My parents are awesome and the Porkchop's friend who came up from CT is possibly the most necessary mover-helper ever. The guy can move, that is all I have to say.
The PC and my dad are sitting in ...

And it's inevitable.. attaining perfection is a crowded road.
We heard back from the owners of the great house.

When I know a move is looming.. even though our lease won't run out for seven months.. I start looking. The Porkchop is not a fan of this, particularly since I found something awesome already. Oops.
What can I say? Craigslist is awesome, lol. It's on the water, 2Bed, 2Bath, with.. ...

Here's what I don't get. I'm a nice person. I pay my rent on time. I leave the places I've rented cleaner than when I first moved in. I handle the problems that arise WITHOUT bothering the landlord.
