This was supposed to be a blog about extracting every ounce of pleasure from life, but it seems to be, in fact, largely a dream journal with notes on baking, Trader Joe's, and celebrity chefs.

OMG THE PRINTER ONLY HAS 1 JOB AND IT'S NOT DOING IT
Really? My printer has two additional jobs, which it peforms quite well: collecting dust, and eating ink cartridges (the blue Doesn't Feel Like Printing Just Now, thanks, anyway, so everything's kind of pinkish-orange).
Printers have secret electronics so they can get messages from their manufacturer. When prices have increased (especially for cartridges) printers are signaled to act up. Thus hapless owners begin the search for a new printer - of course the newer ones have ink cartrifges the size of peas and will cost about $50. each.

Larry: You, too! (Current theory is that a cable was causing the disruption, btw.)
Narya: Good point. Make it three jobs.
