For a cousin, I could probably get away with that. For my brother? I'm thinking no.

Okay, fine, it's his wedding. He doesn't suck. t sniffle

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Thanks for all the advice regarding the Master's.
I figure that what I'll do is stop at Vroman's for a GRE book, and take the test. Then gather up all the stuff I need for the application process, apply, and make a decision if I get in.
At the very least, I have a year to get it all done and give a lot of thought to what I want to do with the rest of my life.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
I'd like to do crockpot meals more often on evenings when one of us has something after work, but I've had trouble finding good recipes. The meat always seems to get this weird not exactly dry but still sawdusty texture.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
what I want to do with the rest of my life
That's a really good question, and I hope I'm not supposed to have an answer.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Susan, I tend to use pre-cooked chicken or sausage-type meats for my crockpot stuff. Usually I'll take half-frozen chicken breasts, cube them, and brown them and then add them to the pot in the morning.
I also use a lot of stock and water. Especially with cream based soups as those tend to do wierd things to the meats.

The aggrivating partner (who I don't actually work for but who has me load his printer because he refuses to learn how to open a drawer) is now gargling in his office.
Ew.
Close the door, dude.

We always talk about lunch -- what's everyone having for dinner?
I'm going to marinade some cod in lime juice, garlic, olive oil and fresh cilantro, then put it on the grill pan. I will make a relish/sauce with black beans, tomato, cilantro, red onion, garlic, cumin, olive oil. I will probably also make some rice with chicken broth on the side.

I watched Wolfgang Puck this weekend - so we are having a version of his chicken bolognese. It looked yummy.
