It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

I was just reading that, Steph. There is a set of the four of them downstairs that I've been eyeing, even though I know they are expensive. But they are really cute!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Thanks for all the brackets. She had a good last day. I held her lots and even took on on the porch wrapped in a blanket. I was so glad the doc agreed it was time.

I took a long nap and am basking in the healing power of the Bomer.

Mostly lurking...

I'm running an "Olympics" camp this week at my school. We've actually spent a lot of time on the mascots. They're quite fun. I even have their story book, which the kids quite love. I think Sumi is their favorite mascot.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I was supposed to meet with my advisor at 1 today. My bet for when we'd actually meet was 1:45. He came to my office at 1 and told me that he had to finish something, but it would just take a minute, and he'd come back when he was done. He was back at 1:25. So, better than I expected.

Oooh. A university where I applied and didn't get the job just sent me an email saying that they just got authorized to hire another person and they invited me to apply for that job. The job that I originally applied for is one that I'm not quite qualified for yet -- they might hire someone right out of grad school, but it's more likely that they'd hire someone who's been working for a few years -- but the new one is a slightly lower-level position that I'm definitely qualified for.

They also decided today that they were not very interested in curling.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They had technical difficulties, Nora. Apparently it was up but only the first 23 minutes.

ok, that explains why it appeared as an option but wouldn't play.

I am still bereft!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

This "moussaka" is tasty but it doesn't remind me of any I ever had in a restaurant so I looked it up. I don't know what these cookbook authors were smoking but there is no eggplant & no bechamel sauce in this dish. It's made with sprouts and a lot of cheese. I can find no evidence that moussaka was made this way in 1974. Maybe they copied the recipe out of an old family cookbook with the pages stuck together.
