Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
ssssshhhhh. I might be seeing the Space Shuttle tomorrow.

-t is for tired, today. Bedroom is painted, except for trim which is just primed and a bit of touching up. Kitchen is fully primed. My brain gerbils just figured out that I move in two weeks and haven't done nearly enough to get ready. Yay?
No suggestion on dog-formerly-known-as-Leather's proper name, but I am very pleased he has found you, Ginger. Now I want to drive all the way to Georgia with Walter so they can play. Gerbils will not let me. Fascists.
Yay, space shuttle, maybe. And yay, croquet.
I'm waiting until 9:00 to start cooking pasta so maybe my roommate will be lucky enough to get home from work just as it's ready.
Gronklies.
I meant to go grocery shopping today. I didn't. But at least I had some food around. So, spaghetti for lunch, gardenburger ribs for dinner. (I generally avoid imitation meat. Three of my exceptions, veggie hot dogs, veggie meat balls, and Tofurky, are because they're just really cheat easy protein to add to cheap easy carbs. The other two, Morningstar Farms buffalo wings and Gardenburger riblets, are because they're just that good.)
I love quorn
edit: and I am so not a vegetarian.
I left my frickin' phone at work. This is so annoying.
I need to go get hair dye tomorrow, and go to the grocery store. And I need to call a friend to cop a ride. Dammit.
I sometimes have Quorn, too. I'd forgotten about that one. That was a diet food staple for me for a while -- the Naked Quorn (no breading) topped with tomato sauce and soy mozzerella, with spinach or green beans or asparagus.
my favorite is curried quorn salad with grapes and celery but I think the quorn roast does a better job than chicken in most chicken salads.
Hill, you mention vegan but I wasn't sure--are you one?
I did vegan for three months. I wasn't a particularly inventive one, and I hate tofu and resent meat substitutes, so it was never going to be more than an experiment. But I am glad I did it.
We hang out with a vegan couple sometimes, and they do stuff like take us to raw food restaurants which is incredibly traumatic if you're me, because the menu's a big old lying tease. But even here in West LA their eating out options are reasonably circumscribed. I can't imagine trying to work that way--I didn't eat out during my foray into veganism.
Sometimes we go to vegan places, and sometimes they come with us to sushi or Indian. But I'm glad I have little in the way of dietary restrictions (my migraine triggers are fairly easy to avoid). I don't have a healthy enough appetite as it is. Couldn't handle cutting down opportunities to eat beyond my sheer laziness.
