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

I love how smart you all are.

This is why I love studying. It makes sense of the world, and makes the world so much richer with meaning.

This is why I love Shir.

Ginger, thanks for the coop link! I will use to make my garden grow.

I would not want Andrew Jackson as my president now, but it's certainly fun to look back and say "Our president was a badsass!"

I finally got off my ass and left the house after the after-brunch-coma. And I bought a sodastream!! Wheeeeee!! Unexpectedly, it came with samples of a whole bunch of the flavors (it didn't say that on the outside!) so I'm very excited to try them all.

Thing I would've/should've done, but didn't: Go sign up at the gym I want to go to. Oddly, they are open long hours, but have a fingerprint verification to get in, and so there's only admin people there M-Sat. Planned for tomorrow.

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

If you like their flavors, let me know and I will bring you the ones I got with mine next time we end up hanging out.

I bought some Cherry Cider at TJ's today for the express purpose of using them in fizzy water. Of the NUM. But I have to confess that the seltzer flavors I tried from SodaStream (not the faux cola, etc. type but the berry water type) were not tasty to me. Calorie free is good, but I'd rather use a little bit of juice.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, man. I am exhausted, hardly got anything done today, and Frankie is under the weather. I don't think we need to go to the emergency vet tonight, but I don't expect to sllep very soundly either.

I am so not ready for this interview! Thank god I'm okay wih extemporaneous, though as any of y'all who've met me in person can vouch, I have a hard time telling a short story.

Yeah, I currently drink a whole lot of the Trader Joe's fizzy lime water. So I'm hoping to like the no-cal lime flavor that was included with the sodastream? But I figure if I don't, I can MAKE MORE! Yay.

I went to Bed Bath and Beyond because I finally got one of those 20% off coupons in the mail.

bonny, would scrambled eggs (cooked in a teensy bit of oil) be okay for a first meal back?

Egg is good, but I'd avoid oil of any kind. It aggravates the stomach lining and pancreas. You could poach the egg and mash it up.

Or try super lean boiled hamburger, maybe some boiled sweet potato.

In any case, resist the urge to feed him too soon or too much in the first meal. Give him quarter cup, see what happens, then a quarter cup more in a couple of hours.

He may give you big, hungry eyes, but know that what is best for his belly is to resist until it can right itself.

Skip dairy and poultry for a bit as well.
