Part of it is that I feel like he has work and school, and all I have to do is take care of the baby...
Babies are harder than work or school. Sure, they're also cuter, but man, I miss the routine of 40 hours behind a desk.
Lily has started taking an interest in the cats. I think she also knows the word "kitty" (and probably the sign), because when I asked her if she wanted her (stuffed) kitty just now, she turned and looked at Mo and grinned.
Hmm. I should warn the felines that trouble is on the way. (She also wants to play with the keyboard. And the touchpad. I'm having a devil of a time typing this with her sitting here.)
Mal's all about the keyboard and mouse (and my stylus). We stole a keyboard that the embassy was throwing out, so he can sit next to us and bang away on a keyboard of his own.
Legion has started to realize that Mallory is a potential source of pets, so he's getting more interested. Mal has in fact petted him, although not very gracefully. The tail is an issue.
I know I don't get a break with the baby, but on the other hand, I don't have to get up at 6:00 and go to work. OK, I have to get up at six, but not really, not for long, and I don't have to get dressed or commute.
Hmm...close to whinging again. If I let it start, the dam will break, and I'll say something I'll be embarrassed about later. Anyway, I should really have something to bitch about in a few days.
So, I've never eat Brussels Sprouts before, but the latest article on Cooking for Engineers convinced me to try them.
Why are these considered bad again? OMG so good!
Why are these considered bad again?
Because they taste like ass and smell worse?
{{{Raq}}} You two will find your way. There's no right way to do it, either. There are lots of right (or as Hec is fond of saying, and as I'm in perfect agreement with "good enough") ways. The important thing is to find a right way that is right for all three of you.
Someone's
not a supertaster.
Because they taste like ass and smell worse?
Overcooked, sure. Smell like sulfur. Most cabbages taste/smell quite noxious when overcooked.
Cooked correctly, they are almost odorless unless you put them right under your nose (at which point they have a kind of nutty smell that reminds me of other cabbages. I quite like it.) and they taste a little nutty and a litttle bitter in a way I quite like.
I guess i could see not liking them, too. So whatevs. But I don't think they taste bad enough to be the Most Hated Vegetable.
I was talking to a friend last week about what we regretted about our forties. We agreed that we missed perky breasts. (I always thought non-perky breasts were only for the childbearing women, but I was wrong.)
So, bitches? FLAUNT 'EM WHILE YOU GOT 'EM. Wear a tube top today! If not for yourselves, for me!
Thank you.
I like brussel sprouts roasted in the oven.
