And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Gritty hummus is poorly made hummus. Add enough tahini and olive oil and it's smoooooooooooooooooth. And delicious.

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

Olive oil! Yeah, not gonna work. In quantity, migraine trigger. Can only consume lightly. No doubt a contributing factor that took me this long to remember.

Can you make hummus with bacon fat? Maybe I'd like that.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Now you're talking. There has to be a niche market for that. Besides just me.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Bacon, vanilla, bread, and chocolate. Best food smells ever.

I just unearthed my bread machine (seriously, I had no idea where I put it when I moved here. Um, five years ago.) and started a loaf of bread. Because I am feel eh today and baking bread seems like an amazing way to feel better. If I go buy bacon, I am ... you know, I was going to say "blame ita" but "thank ita" seems like the better choice. Mmmm, food.

You should try. I'll bring bread.

Art Crawl!!!

I was talking to my boss today and realized that I've lived in DeKalb for almost 20 years.

That's the longest I've lived in any one town EVER. Plus, I've lived in this apartment for 14+ years. Eek.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

We just got the monthly anniversaries list here at work, and I realized that I'm only 2 1/2 years away from my 20th anniversary. Wow.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I was actually a little weirded out by my 10th anniversary at my job.

I think my cat thinks my enclosed, upstairs back porch is outside. She meows and meows o go out there, and when I let her out (and close the door because it is freezing) she meows and meows to get in. I keep being scared she is using the porch as a litter box, but it does not smell, and there is pee in the litter box. I wish she had never discovered the porch, though.

Wow, Kathy!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I just had my 10th anniversary at my job, and my society's director apparently informed all the Editors-in-Chief I've ever worked with. Three of them have sent me notes telling me how wonderful I am and how working with me was "the best part" of being EiC. I forwarded them all to my boss and my boss's boss, and you can bet I'll be pointing to them come salary review time. Accolades make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. It almost makes this insane job worth it.
