Natter 36: But We Digress...
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.
Hello, all. Hot here. Have sweated through 2 bras before I gave up and went with the bathing suit option (doused regularly). Spent all fricken day looking at apartments, and think we have found The One. If only The One had parking, but we take what we can get. Took a special trip to the grocery store for white-out (application) and popsicles (me).
If all goes well, I will still be in the same neighborhood, with a much bigger space, and a grape arbor in the back yard for grillin' on August 1.
If all does not go well, I will be living in a van down by the river. Not really. It will actually be some other apartment, respectable in every way except for the awful 70s decor and stained carpets.
Paddling out is good exercise though, huh?
There wasn't that much paddling out, sadly. Not sure why, but she looked at the water and said we'd not have to.
And were you warm enough?
For an hour. Then I started losing sensation in my toes.
did you have fun?
Yes, I did. I can't wait until I can do it right. Or at least predictably.
When can we come and get The Inside?
Tomorrow evening? Or afternoon if I don't make the volleyball game?
I just unpacked the last really important box, and now I have hammers, screwdrivers, nails, and more than one spoon.
Sadly, still no sporks.
life is not complete without sporks. Run out to a KFC or Boston Chicken or other fast food place that might support sporks.
I decided no cherries tonight, and went ahead and made the smoothie.
Congrats on apartment findage.
OH! I need to tape the Inside and send off to Emily. WIll do tonight.
And here I was wondering what to have to dinner.
msb, is the smoothie like half a meal? Because it looks like you've had 2.5 meals today. IMO.
I, OTOH, had an enormous amount of cheese fries for lunch and some awesome chicken salad for dinner.
I bought cherries! Cherries are awesome.
Since it is still way too hot to cook, I am contemplating the idea of cold hot dogs. Or of putting off dinner for a while yet and just eating cheese and cherries until 10pm.
Cold hot dogs are nobody's friend.
Jesse I have had 2 meals (yogurt/strawberries & cranberry mix thingy=breakfast, turkey burger patty/salad/shrimp salad=lunch) and 2 snacks (kiwi=1, beans=2).
So the protein smoothie (mango & banana in a base of apple juice) was gonna be dinner with possible some celery & carrot if I am still hungered.
I think I am going to have Chinese food, but I am trying to decide if I want to have it delivered or order it to go from the slightly better place that will force me to drive down the hill to get it.
I haven't seen a spork at a KFC in a while. (Although I don't eat at KFC that often - usually I just go to the one across the street from work.)
Cold hot dogs are nobody's friend.
My mom would slice up frozen hot dogs and put them in scrambled eggs as they cooked. I liked to eat the frozen hot dog slices.
