I don't know why it bothers me so that I'll probably need to throw out the last steak from a value pack tomorrow. It's only about $1.40 worth of meat, so it's not like I've come home to discover a refrigerator full of spoiled food or anything. The punctured cheap-ass TV dinner I bought the other week was a bigger financial outlay.
Buckle up, kids! Daddy's puttin' the hammer down.

You can't freeze it?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh. My cat now comes running to me when she hears me unzipping my laptop case, because she knows she might get some quality lap-sitting time in....

I think it's to the point of turning, so re-freezing it would just delay having to throw it out.
There's just some part of my brain yelling "YOU CAN'T LET STEAK GO TO WASTE!" despite the fact that it's bargain basement meat.
But there is no way I'm going to risk eating it for dinner tomorrow this soon after a bout of food poisoning.

Sounds good to me, brenda. Now that I've looked at the menu, I think the hard part will be deciding what to eat. That all sounds delicious.
Man, my dinner totally didn't take.

Matt, that's what dogs are for! Mine love to stay at ex-housemate's because he is an omnivore and they get all kinds of tasty meat tidbits.
Also, is it possible to have a crush on a store? Because I totally do. Everything is really good, local as much as they can, and, um, not cheap.
Totes. I have a tiny organic market blocks from my house (shares a stripmall with a Rite-Aid!) that I love dearly.
I wanna go to brenda's restaurant and review!

You should! You, and JZ and Hil and all our other vegetarians - come to Chicago and I'll take you there.

I just ordered an $800 piece of therapy equipment for Grace. Oof. Also I am sort of amused at reading Bureau.
I was much more passionate about things. Or I had more time to procrastinate. Or I cared more. Or I filtered less. It's all hard to tell.

Yeah, when I go back to TT and my other forum and read my early posts, boy was I raw. I'm relieved somewhat that I found this place as an internet adult. That is, that I'd had my passion and feelings and youth deflowered on other boards, so I came to this one with a fairly thick skin and a sense of perspective. It's been a really, really long time since I let something on teh internets get me upset. The closest I've come on this board was the dog leash thing, but I see now that I was being way oversensitive about my (then)extreme-needs puppy. And the associated lack of sleep )(combined with worry) definitely fucked with me. I guess it's good I am unlikely to become a parent.
