Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

ita, I hope you don't have a migraine, because I have one that's big enough for two. I've been assaulting it with drugs, though, and I think it might be retreating. *Maybe.*

I'm running around making people refer to me as Milton Morlock Waddams.

Last night, as we were drifting off to sleep, I told The Boy about Shrift's move to sub-basement 3, and assorted Morlocks, C.H.U.D.s, and Sewer Urchin. I think he fell asleep during my litany, because this morning he asked me, "Were you talking about Morlocks last night? And....WHY?!?"

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

I hope you don't have a migraine, because I have one that's big enough for two.

You wouldn't mind hanging on to it for a little while longer? I promise I'll take it back some time today.

Hey! Torchwood's underground, right? The Batcave is underground? We need to start positively reinforcing shrift's burial, with HoYay! if need be.

It doesn't seem inclined to leave, so I'll keep it. But I'm creating a hostile environment for it, all the same.

I promise I'll take it back some time today.

Maybe it can just go away and perish and leave us BOTH alone.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

When my boss saw me taking jalapenos for my stuffy nose last night she said she has a friend who eats yellow peppers when she feels a migraine coming on and that keeps them at bay.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

My lunch is a very delicious omelet.

I hadn't made an omelet in a while, generally preferring scrambles.

But after Top Chef last night I could tell JZ wanted something tastier than mac and cheese so I made her a really delicious omelet. And I was jealous of the omelet I made for her last night so I made my own today, adding ham.

First I sauteed some diced onion in butter. When that was translucent I added fresh spinach and cooked it just long enough to coat it in butter and get it slightly wilted. You don't want to overdo spinach.

Set that aside and poured in two eggs. I'd mixed them French style with a minimum of whipping and air. So that it would be a perfect little envelope of egg for the filling. Swirled the egg around in the pan until it was crepe-like. Filled it with spinach and onions. Then added one slice of diced ham and some feta cheese.

Folded it over perfectly and Voila! So freakin' yum.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That's why I like having a bag of baby spinach in the fridge. Salad or sautee.

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

Cash, I totally meant to come back and tell you about the Whovian ring tones. But that looks sorted.
You could tell me instead. I am craving Tardis noises.

and some nice kefir (which I so cannot pronounce)
Key-fur. Mmmm, kefir...

I'm at the airport. I should go see if the Powell's here has paperdol's book. I forgot to ask P yesterday when she called where she grabbed it from...

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

has a friend who eats yellow peppers when she feels a migraine coming on and that keeps them at bay.

Does her friend have a giant Kitchen Stadium?

Sending me Christian Bale and John Barrowman would be an excellent start.

Will you promise to take excellent notes for us if we do?
