In the Time of Chimpanzees, I was a Monkey.

sushi.jpg I'm ruminating. Marinating. D.H. and I, for matters financial only, have been reduced to eating at what the gaijins refer to as screaming sushi. I wrote about it here, and you can read it just in case you haven't already. Make sure to scroll down. It's the one at the bottom. I've already waxed philosophical about it. More than once. Instead, I bring you:

TCWH's Ode To Toto Ya Michi
Also known as: When Boredom Strikes.

I DONT like sushi but I do love Dr Seuss and I adore when you write poems about sushi and Dr Seuss.. this is a keeper. Not to mention I'm teetotally tired and I have hissing cats in the living room. I bet THEY would love sushi. Not sure about Dr Seuss though.

Your comments hate me. About as much as I hate sushi. So you guys take GARY out for sushi when you get to Phoenix. I'll be drinking.. infact I will come with you .. HE can have sushi and I CAN have the alcohol!!! Then he can drive me home... unless of course he's dead from bad sushi.. in which case would you recite that at the funeral?

My daughter's in for a rude shock when I read her bedtime story tonight....Dr. Seuss and sushi, what a combo!

I refuse to eat anything I've used as fishing bait.

Funny...some of my favorite foods look, smell or taste like fish baits. I too liked the Dr. Sush poem. I know what let's do, have wasabi to make it taste even better. Put a little windex.

1) We are SO going to eat sushi when you get to Phoenix.

2) I don't care if Gary and S. come with us or not, but we will bring Rachel, and she will have a sake bomber.

3) Sashimi rules.

4) Jesus Christ on a Cracker, Rachel, could you be any more neurotic about the comments engine? Is 7:30 in the morning too early for you to have a cocktail> ;-)

R,

Well, if we take Gary out for sushi, and he dies, both Rose and I would be dead as well! From the fish - you'd be the only left to say the poem. Maybe you should write it on a little piece of paper and bring it in your pocket, just in case. Or you can just drink sake bombs for us, that would be okay.

S -

That's actually where I got the idea. A little girl named Jarrina keeps telling me, "Hey! Watch my tongue twister! I would not eat it with a mouse! I would not eat it in a house!" All! DAY! LONG! Pleasant. But, I like my version much better.

T,

It is an interesting habit, I agree. I can't think about it too much - in the same vein, I don't like to eat chicken, beef, or pork. I just think about their little faces and it grosses me out. Before Finding Nemo, fish was the only "animal" I ate. You must use some expensive bait!

SC,

I am ALL about the wasabi. That's the difference with the traditional restaurants - they do not put the little pots of wasabi on the table - the chefs put it on, and you get what you get! I might have to start carrying windex in my bag.

Rose,

1.) We will so have to take Rachel out to eat prior to the sake bomber. Alcohol. in. stomach. Hell, maybe I'll grab something to.

2.)It will be so! Much! fun! Yippee!

3.) We will definitely have to have a designated driver.
