It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Thanks to Teppy for "the plural of anecdote..."

I got it from somewhere else -- possibly the Bitch PhD blog, but I don't remember for sure.

Anything I say that sounds cool probably came from somewhere else.

“Not dead yet!”

Dear God, I'm getting the full rundown of my father's last days and memorial service from last Sunday.

Kill me now.

I feel like cooking something. But it's too hot to turn the oven on, and I don't want to stress my ankle by standing at the stove for too long, and I'm not sure what that leaves.

Do you have a crockpot or a Microwave?

Both. (My answer to "Do you have this kitchen appliance?" is almost always yes.) I think I might try making some raw Mexican food. (I've been on a weird raw food kick lately -- not for all meals, but at least a few meals a week. I'm pretty sure this will pass once summer is over and there aren't so many nice fresh vegetables.)

Well if you are making raw Mexican food then your problem is settled.So won't bore you with recipes. If you happen not to want raw food, you can make almost anything in a microwave, and make something good quickly wutgiyt heating the house. Crockpots also don't heat up the house, but obviously not something for last minute meals.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Are you wearing your hard hat to protect you from that? Did you fill out an accident report?

My microwave isn't great for more than heating stuff up -- it's kind of at a weird angle, so anything that requires stirring also requires really awkward stretching.

I made taco filling and cheezy sauce. Both taste way too salty for my taste. Tomorrow, I will buy some romaine to use as taco shells and stuff to make salsa and guacamole and some veggies to put on top.
