I just got a bunch of oyster mushrooms at the farmer's market -- I think I see risotto in my future
Simon: You are my beautiful sister. River: I threw up on your bed. Simon: Yep. Definitely my sister.

[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I finished making my slides. Finished making my handouts. Presenting tomorrow.
I have clothes to wear -- new red shirt, old black slacks. I have a clippy thing to keep my hair off my face. I have shoes and knee-highs. I have makeup. I have a watch and earrings. I do not have a necklace, because I tend to fidget with necklaces while talking.
I also have a whole lot of nervousness. And a cold sore. And my hair decided to take this weekend to develop a huge knot that I've got to comb through now.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
You're going to rock this thing, Hil!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
...I cooked the whole package of bacon....
You saved the bacon grease for making cornbread and biscuits and other yummy things later, right? Bacon grease keeps very well in a can in the refrigerator.

I just bought some today. I will be having bacon for breakfast. YUM.
IOmememeN, there was, alas, no ice skating for me today. The rink was so busy that they had no rental skates in my size. Dodged that bullet for another week!

“Not dead yet!”
I pan fried some of the Honey Baked ham this morning to go along with chocolate & caramel chip pancakes. We've almost used up enough ham so that I can make split pea soup later this week.

The status is NOT quo.
Health~ma to your mom, Theo, and coping ~ma to you.
Go Hil! You're going to rock!!
In meme news, I have spent four days grading, have more to do today, and have to go back to work tomorrow. I am an idiot for putting this all off until the last possible moment. Grr.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
shoving it haphazardly into random plurals makes the Baby Jesus cry.
omnis I can forgive. It's the so-called "professional journalists" who keep abusing it that have been making me nuts and contemplating doing things that would end up with me in an orange jumpsuit with side-slash pockets.
My mother, a lifelong communications/PR professional, has started using quotation marks for emphasis. Like so:
I'm eating Trader Joe's chocolate-filled cereal bites, and I "love" them!
I try to explain to her that she should damn well know that using quotation marks in that way makes it look like she means the opposite of what's in quotes.
She yelled at me and told me that I just don't understand. At which point it officially became Freaky Friday.
(And I *am* eating Trader Joe's chocolate-filled cereal bites, and I *do* love them.)
You know you are in a room of brainiacs when grammar causes some of the most heated discussions.
Be glad you weren't around for the Gerund Wars. Very, VERY glad. Seriously.
