Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

in attempting so re-found this which I love all to pieces.

Heh. Yeah, I remember trying to explain that to someone here....

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I never know how much sushi to order. I always get too much.

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

And I remember this moment in match class where I had a confusing craving for a cigarette and some cuddling.

It's just hot.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I never know how much sushi to order. I always get too much.

I do too. The hub is useful to have around at those times, but I don't know if I'd go so far as to recommend marriage as a way to avoid leftover sushi.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I think the universe needs to buy Kat a present, STAT.

On sushi, DH and I usually split the "sushi deluxe" combo meal, plus either a negamaki or tempura thing. Given the option, though, I will eat as much sushi as is put in front of me, because it's just so delicious and bite-sized.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

sushi - 12 -14 pieces - on a good eating day - but usually some of it is something veggie like oshinko roll.

Before coming to LA I'd never gotten full on sushi. Now I eat out at sushi restaurants at least twice a week. It's so weird that it's now normal food, not special and confusing treat.

I must conquer sake similarly. The restaurant's gimlets range from unnotable to annoying, and I hope going with sake means playing more to their strengths.

Problem with me pacing myself is that my most constant dinner companion monitors what I eat and we fight if I stop before he wants me to.

Late in the day, Happy Birthday Robin. I'm singing Scrappy Inferno to you instead of Happy Birthday.

It's a fine summery day and I am home having the sweats. I hate summer colds.

How many pieces of sushi do you all typically eat in one sitting?

I usually eat a couple of rolls, plus a couple roe or uni gunkan-maki if I'm hungry. But it depends on the kind of roll. I try not to eat more than $20 worth of sushi at a sitting.

I suspect sushi may be on the menu tonight now that it's been brought up. I don't feel like baking the trout filet I have in my freezer.

Happy Birthday Robin!

I usually get a combo too, but the new Japanese restaurant that opened by me doesn't have a combo plate, which was why I was asking.

I got an eel avocado roll, which had about 7 segments, and a salmon, a tuna, and another eel sushi. Plus a cooked, salted mackerel Tapas thing, which was amazing.
