Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Here is the weirdest thing I've ever seen at a wedding: creepy puppet people.
If there were a lot of children at the reception, you should have started a rumor that the creepy puppet people's heads were full of candy and then passed out sticks to the kiddies....
I have discovered that, although I hate most preparations of brussels sprouts, I love them when they're cut in quarters, tossed with olive oil and salt, and roasted until crispy. Yum.
Last night I sauteed spinach! It was magic. I put such a great volume of leafage in the skillet, but it shruuuuuunk. It tasted pretty good with lemon.
The big boss said he was going to come over today to talk to me about the job situation, like maybe they'd found a solution. (I suspect said solution involves being a contractor for a while, BAH.)
But, no show.

So frelling tired of this. I wouldn't rather be unemployed, but how on earth do freelancers deal with this sort of thing? I'm at my wit's end.

Spinach is fun like that. It's really good if you throw in a handful each of raisins and pine nuts, and let the pine nuts get a little toasted.
I got changed into my pajamas before I remembered that tonight is the night to take out the garbage. I guess I can just put my jacket over my pajamas, but I was getting all comfortable, and now I've got to go outside again.
I don't like raisins, but pine nuts are an idea. Also garlic.
So it was kind of inevitable that people would at least glance at the other people.
This was full-fledged, all the guys stopped dancing and pulled aside the curtains to look. Given the shitty glances the people who crossed over got, it seemed a little hypocritical. But I don't have the nuanced sensitivity to the customs.
The women had to pass through the men's section to get to theirs, so there was that much intermingling. The genders were separate during the ceremony, but co-mingled at the dinner.
Timelies all!
I can't recall anything really weird at the weddings I've been to, despite having been to three that were held at conventions.

Also white beans (canned are fine if you rinse them), and then serve it all over pasta.

Dried cranberries or cherries would work too. I just made brown bread with tart cherries instead of raisins and it was so much better.
