I should really pay more attention to things. I lost all of my playcounts and stuff AGAIN when I moved my iTunes onto the new computer. And apparently I didn't need to? But I didn't care enough to go back to the old computer and follow whatever procedure I was supposed to follow the last time. Oy.
Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

Helped start the chicken soup and matzoballs for tonight. Other food prep later.

Catching up from yesterday:
Happy Belated Birthday beth!
YAY second dating Tom! Go you with your bad self.
YAY Kat!
Jilli, when we reschedule, we NEED to go bowling.
I'm not in Seattle after all, and have no idea at all what to do with myself today. I suspect getting dressed might be a good start, but I am not sure that's happening.

I am still sick. Worse sick, in some ways: the congestion in my sinuses has moved down into my nose and I'm all sniffling and miserable.
I want matzoh ball soup!

I know this is bad timing with passover and all - but I have some cooked shrimp meat, and inability to handle solid food. Anyone have any good non-spicy soup recipes using shrimp? Please?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Brooklyn Flea has some new vendors
Yeah, I'm waiting a few more weeks to see if the crowds thin out a little before I go there.

ooohhh... Brooklyn Flea looks great. Too bad I'm too far away.
I had my spa week cheap massage today. It was supposed to be a hot stone massage, but the stones never got hot so I got an invite to come back and let them have a do-over.
I t heart spa week.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Typo Boy, if you have a can of diced tomatoes, some celery, and some wine, you could make a quick-and-dirty Manhattan chowder. I usually do it as follows:
1 15oz. can chopped tomatoes
about 1/2 bottle white wine (you can use red instead, or even just equivalent amount of chicken stock)
onions and celery, chopped up
something fishlike (I have used salmon, canned clams, whitefish, and shellfish
oregano, salt, pepper, and lemon juice for spices
potatoes if you have them
Basically, all in the pot, in the order you might expect, and simmer 20-30 minutes or till everything is done. It is a very winter-homey soup, but really easy, and I don't know any other fish soup recipes.

I spent a bit over an hour at the Arboretum. Mostly daffodils and poppies and the smaller magnolias. Can't wait for the azaleas and dogwoods. And tiger lilies!
Have erranded and bought 4 shirts at Target. Will shortly hit Home Despot for flowers. I'll probably do the actual gardening tomorrow.
