Don't worry, I'm not gonna start any sword fights. I'm over that phase.

Natter 43: I Love My Dead Gay Whale Crosspost.  

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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Six inches of snowfall so far.

Also, other drivers suck mammoth moose balls.

May join shrift in homicidal raging.

Did you know that being hungry could make your upper back get tense and sore? I do now.

Waiting for pork loin to cool enough to carve.

Turns out my main physics prof is retiring this year. They are throwing a surprise retirement party the weekend of March 24. I drive down, huh? Even though I really haven't been in touch in like, 5 years? And I get to be the fun "no, still at the same place. No, don't know what next." Cause it isn't about me. Mmmph.

Sometimes I'm not sure if my sucky staying in touch skill are due to sucky skills or avoiding my own disappointment.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I skipped waaaay over 2000 messages. Guess where I just got back from!

Hrm...covered in purple and green and beads?

When making pot roast in a slow cooker, how important is it that you sear the meat first?

I'd sear it, if it were me. So much tastier that way.

Then again, you don't see me making pot roast very often. Too much work, what with the searing and all.

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

Slow cooker! It balances out.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

The only ones I'm wearing now are the green and white glass ones the paramedic gave me, but yep, I have several bags full.

And I. Ate. THE DINNER. I shall never have dinner again.

The paramedic? Now what did you go do?!

Oh, I do love the Dinner.

Welcome back, Daisy!

I discovered that my coworker wasn't being louder than usual (which is pretty loud, in my defense). I was just in the superpowers phase of pre-migraine.

Next time I want enhanced healing powers, or at least flight.

On the upside it took hours longer to start hurting, and this time tomorrow I'll have had not only a nerve block but DELICIOUS BURGERS. Or maybe just one burger, but it will be TASTY. Also possibly LARGE.

I don't own a slow cooker, so for me it involves a cast iron dutch oven. Honestly, I am home enough hours to make one, I just can't be arsed most of the time.
