Kaylee: So how many fell madly in love with you and wanted to take you away from all this? Inara: Just the one. I think I'm slipping.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Any time I pound a piece of meat to tenderize it, bread it , and fry it, I think of it as "just like abalone".

Mmm, abalone.

Abalone rellenos = delicious.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, that sounds cool, Perkins.

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

I have no dinner on Wednesdays, except maybe ice cream. Does anyone have recommendations for a good scoop? My standard spring-loaded one isn't that good. I'm trying to develop the patience to let the ice cream sit before serving, but my attention span isn't so good.

Hmmph. I better get to that e-mail I've been avoiding.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

ita, dip the scoop in hot water right before scooping the ice cream. It solves the patience problem as well as the ice cream = rock solid issue.

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

Hey, Perkins! -t said "abalone"!

Was it still squiggling?

I really need to plan an LA trip. Maybe in August.

Abalone?

OK, it doesn't matter if you have a PhD and speak at least 2 languages. The abuse of !!! makes me think you are a omigaaawdteenybopper.

Hey! Dammit, I had a post! Freaking new Netscape.

Anyway, I was bitching and moaning about our apartment, where it takes a good five minutes to get hot water, so not so much on the patience issue. Then, once I was done being all about me and my problems, I was going to tell ita about the special fancy-schmancy defrosting ice cream scoops, of which we have one. Like this, for instance. It's fantastic. I never understood how people got satisfactory scoops of ice cream before.

The other week, when I was with my family, my grandmother gave me shit for putting "too much ice cream" on the desserts. My question to the group is this: Is that even possible?? Is there such a thing as too much ice cream??

Not in any world *I* want to live in....
