Ooh, tell me what you think of it when you try it, lisah! I look at those with longing but also fear that they will not be as miraculous as I want them to be.
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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

I like my cats. I like that the maddest my cats make me is exasperation because they are shoving things off or bolting out the door or YOWLING endlessly upstairs or trying to bury a bowl or taking a protest dump on the floor or being pesty to the other cats.
I do not like the humans and their assholic, blame the victim, women-hating, advocating death to others, self hating behaviors.
I need to not click the links. And I need to pet my cats. Who are cute and furry and purring is nice.

I will! It seems like it could be easy? If I can figure out how to put all the parts together. I registered for the mixer and my aunts got it for me and then they went crazy buying accessories for it. We have a meat grinder too! Another food project for the household will be making sausage.
If the homemade pasta, homemade sausage works out? Heaven!

I refrained from the comments. "Articles" were bad enough.

Re: Healthcare
My Mother, quite adamatly, sent notes to school saying "Trudy was home with me." As far as she was concerned it was nobody's business as long as she approved it. We most certainly could not afford doctor's appointments for silly shit.
Costco tends to have the cheapest drugs. And you don't need to be a member to use the pharmacy.
I have health insurance now! I am just the right level of broke to get the NYS kind that you pay for (as opposed to SUPER poor and/or have a child for the free kind) and saved up money to do so. I will likely only be able to afford it for one year.
Last week I got kicked in the nose by a crowd surfer. My first thought, my REFLEXIVE first thought as I reached up to see if it was bleeding was "good thing my insurance kicked in, it could be broken."

Now that I'm calmer, I have no idea how the parents of kids who actually disappear deal. I only had 2 hours of worry slowly building to near panic. And it has taken me 3 hours to not feel like I'm vibrating out of my skin.
I want to hug/strangle him.
I have never been brave enough to attempt home made pasta. I should suck it up and try, but I don't have any tools or even a tutor.
