Plain bread works, too, Matt, since the milk's bad. Water actually makes it worse.
Yes, you need something to absorb the capsaicin - starch or fat. Water just spreads it around so your entire mouth is on fire.
Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

I am at the theater, waiting for my second curtain of the day. Given the week I've had, I would rather be anywhere else. Mostly at home.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Second performances in the same day often suck to do, even without outside crap on your mind.
I finished a sock.
There's this voice in my head that says I should make the match in a different pattern. There's another voice that says that I do not want my sock aesthetic to be based on Dobby.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I'll bet there's a market for Dobby Socks.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I've seen, in the kids and juniors departments, some company selling a bunch of mismatched socks in coordinating colors. (In high school, I'd nearly always wear mismatched socks, but that was mostly because I could never find matching ones. Now, I pretty much only buy one kind of sock, so that solves that problem.)

msbelle, I agree with Hil. Repeat until 50 stitches on the needle.
Kathy, GOOD LORD. I admire your restraint in not ripping the man a new asshole.
Still a good day going. It was 98 degrees here. Beautiful but toasty. Though the sun did right by the sheets and the down comforter we had on the line. They dried up right quick and were perfect.
Jesse, you made me laugh outloud with the cigs+scratch card-beer....

Where's he been, David?
Boston and NY. He caught the Red Sox home opener (ring ceremony) and got a foul ball off Manny Ramirez. EM's been going back to the East Coast every spring break to see her Mom (Brooklyn) and sister (Boston).
