Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Kalsane--I scorched my mom's lentil soup recipe abnout the first, oh, 12 zillion times I made it. I finally learned the right burner settings for it and the other things I cook on a regular basis, but it took a looooooong time. Look at it this way, you are one pot closer to making perfect chili!

Also? You can always resort to crockpotting.

I've come VERY close to burning soups and stews because of my slapdash treatment of gas burners and a cheapass thin soup pot.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's hungry outside, and I'm all snowy.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I was gonna nag you. Turns out I don't have to, but that's not nice news. Very sorry to hear it.

Thanks. Unfortunately, the general consensus is that maybe I should avoid the Krav until I begin to get a little bit more fixed.

Of course, I was also told to onl have one cup of coffee a day, and I think we all know that's not happening.

Mmm, coffee. These weather reports are like dispatches from the future, since we're supposed to get this storm tomorrow, after it intensifies. Oy!

Now that the worst of the snow dumping is done, we're supposed to have winds. They aren't here yet. I want them here before I have to shovel or walk under the trees. Because you know the trees just wait to dump their snow the minute someone walks under them.

Also? I wish I'd get some thunder & lightening. First real snowstorm I experienced up here was late one February. I was woken up for it by the thunder and completely boggled that it was SNOWING and there was THUNDER. I didn't know that happened.

It very rarely thunders and lightnings during snow. At least around here.

It's kinda cool. Even manages to mitigate my snow hate because I adore thunder & lightening. To an unhealthy degree.

I love thunder and lightning too. I especially like to drive during thunderstorms. Once I saw lightning strike the highway right in front of me (like, maybe 50 feet). There were sparks where the lightning contacted the highway.

This was at night, so I was blinded for about two or three seconds.
