It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

I stayed up way too late, but only woke up moderately too late. So now I'm sleepy AND half the day is wasted. Bah.

My boss asked me to come in 45 minutes early to make sure the phones were covered while he was on a Super Important Conference Call. (yeah, whatever). Getting up an hour earlier was hard! At least he said he'd let me leave work early.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

A blowtorch.

Oh, where's the fun in that?

The words are in English, and grammatically correct ... yet ... can't make head nor tails of them.

Just tell your boss you have a potentially infected edema from a work-related injury....

Absolutely. And from listening to Steph, deep bruising and a strep infection -- FLESH EATING BACTERIA (uh, that's for your boss's benefit, not yours -- you'll be fine. though don't tell your boss anything, nosy parker).

we have a gas-fueled camping stove we can lend ya

There's got to be a way. I will find it. Luckily, as mentioned upthread, really easy to clean.

ita, you should get one of those rings people use with woks - it'll raise the pot an inch or two above the burner and make it much easier to cook at low temps.

If I could open my eyes all the way, I'd glare at you menacingly, but for now I'll just have to settle for a vaguely malevolent squint.

Coding and Sleeping

If you're wondering about this little bit of the press conference last night:

I hope we can get an asbestos reform bill out of both the House and the Senate. There are some positive noises on Capitol Hill as to whether or not we can get an asbestos reform bill. That will be an important reform in order to make sure that our economy continues to grow.

Bear in mind that while Cheney was CEO of Halliburton, Halliburton bought a company named Dressor that has a very large liability in asbestos lawsuits.

Yeah, the funny thing is he left Halliburton in largely the same shape they're fixing to leave the economy in general. Short-term thinking with huge long-term implications.
