Turkey for breakfast!
No, really.
And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

We aren't having turkey for breakfast. We are having Bellinis, pancakes, eggs, ham, bacon. Life is good.
It would be excellent if people weren't (1)bored by the slow island life and (2) if I didn't have the paper due that I'm working on.
In reading my research, I read this:
The truly antisocial and deviant person is somebody who either fails to comprehend the rules of his social universe or who consciously rejects community standars in favor of self-defined guidelines.
Reading this makes me think about how the internets seem to be the realm of these people!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am not bored by the slow island life. This may or may not be because I grew up on a slow island.
It is more likely because moving gives me a headache. Still, I have no paper to write, and am quite content.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

But we also have, in Allyson's words, Sneezy, Wheezy and Woozy in the house. So, since Teh Sick seems to have descended and since the island is on the verge of quarantine, maybe no room to be jealous.
Plus, I have this damned paper to finish.

That would be more of a factor if I wasn't being brutalized by teh sick already. I could be Sniffly.
Going farther than the kitchen has kind of lost the shiny though so I'd need a teleporter.

I just came back from braving the shopping areas (I had to pick up some more Bernat Disco fun fur yarn for a 8yo-niece scarf) and mostly through luck realized that I'm in time for the 1:30 yoga class. Whee! And I may be able to fit in a quick visit to the big craft show over at Somerville High, too. Saturday is definitely looking up...
Alas to the hard-boiled egg suggestion, which would be very nice except I've never cared for the taste of them -- to me, they taste entirely differently from scrambled and/or omeleted eggs. There must be some chemical difference in the way they firm up or something. Does anybody else notice that?

They taste different to me, but I use milk in scrambled eggs plus lots of other stuff in omelets—not sure if the flavor difference is from the eggs themselves or the additives.

As an egg-hater, I cannot be around people eating boiled eggs because they all smell rotten to me. I won't eat fried or scrambled eggs, but if there is a smell, it doesn't really bother me.
