I've already started the laundry, thankfully. I don't like packing dirty laundry. Some of the stuff stays here anyway (this weekend would have been my laundry weekend, so sheets, towels, etc.)

I'll be able to do laundry there, too. Thankfully, since I don't think I can escape an almost-3 month old unscathed, not to mention the 4.5 year old. But I can come home with clean clothes!

I've just got the pre-trip frazzle plus a new and unexpected thang happening.

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

I don't like packing dirty laundry.

Neither do I, but I'll do it in a pinch. For 'lo, I am the world's worst procrastinator.

I've just got the pre-trip frazzle plus a new and unexpected thang happening.

So I see. Good luck with the thang.

Thanks! May amount to nothing, but why NOW. Sheesh.

eta: I mean, I have lists going on three postit pads. And am editing printout in barely legible pink pen. And I really wish I had a large wipe-off board to do this on.

Holy shit! A huge highway bridge during rush hour, and it just....collapsed??? Damn.

I've been on that bridge lots of times. Good god. I hope there aren't too many casualties, but....damn.

Dog is my co-pilot.

My husband and I have many friends and a few relatives in the Twin Cities. I can't reach any of them.

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

Oy. That's random and scary.

Unrelatedly--were the authors of the kama sutra vegans?

It's been so freaking hot there, I wonder if that was a factor. Roadways do all sorts of bad things under those conditions.

Does anyone have a good recipe for cornbread? I've tried a few in the past, but they always seem too dry.

My mom makes really good corncakes but there's not really a set recipe. It's just a cup of cornmeal, an egg, roughly half a cup of milk (enough so the texture is moist but not runny, and can be slowly poured) and sugar to taste. Instead of baking it, she pours the mix like flapjacks into a skillet with heated canola oil and flips each cake when the top side is riddled with bubbles and solidifying.

I'm sure it's horribly unhealthy, but it's also gooood.
