Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I don't do much cooking, so this is a really amateur question, but can I use the same skillet with the meat juices left in to saute my onion after I finish browning my meat, or should I wash it out first?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

You might want to wipe it if there's a lot, but otherwise yes.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

No, don't wash in between. I do the onion first and then just add the meat to brown, but I like my onions cooked to disintegration.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I CAN STOP watching the NeutraFace video. I know have a list of improvements that can be made to their costumes (the shorter, non-bearded dude needs his shirt fitted, and he is wearing those low-cut socks, so you can see his ankles!)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Sophia that is hilarious. But isn't the short pant/sock combo kind of a Thom Browne thing?

Maybe- although these look more like short sock liner sweat socks! I read this article (maybe linked here) that the Thom Browne look can work for anyone, but I am not sure....

You know what's annoying? Work is closed monday. But I don't have it off, per my company. So I have to take vacation. EXCEPT, my company gives us Presidents' Day. Except work is open, so I have to work. I can then float the holiday for later in the calendar year, but not over to next year. So it's a wash, but incredibly stupid they can't get their collective acts together.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

my brother and his bf came into the city to join mac and I in the regular post-therapy dinner at Chipotle so it could feel a little like a birthday. My brother is a really good older brother (megan walker can back me up) he had gotten cupcakes and is being extremely generous for a gift in covering moving costs, and had brought in mac's gift to me also (which, of course, he had also bought).

So yay a nice ending to a pretty normal day, but no issues or problems which all I was really wanting out of this birthday. 39 is just a holding pattern year anyway, right?

If it's fatty hamburger, I might pour out a little of the fat, but otherwise I usually brown the meat, leave it in the pan, then add the onions.
