Woo, TCG! Rock that interview!
Also, smonster, you are good people.
Before you canonize me as a modern day St. Francis, I must confess that:
- I go days without walking Frankie because I have a yard and I'm lazy
- I go days without scooping the cat pans even though I know (I KNOW) that I am playing Bella-pee-on-fabric roulette
- Xusha is limping like a peg-leg pirate from arthritis but I've let months go by without making another vet appointment (she finally had one).
- I've got a flea infestation I can't shake, even though all three animals have been dosed in the last two weeks.
So yeah. I can't take on any more animals, I am not taking the best care of the ones I've got.
why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit?
Zen, can I tag this?
Epic, be my guest, and happy birthday!
Hey, dinner. Finally done. Take that, budget guilt.
Smonster what did you make?
I had a big lunch out with mom. Then I decided it was too hot to eat dinner, but it would be sinful to waste the rest of the coconut rice pudding, so I ate that for dinner.
I had Cherry Garcia ice cream for dinner. Because I'm a grown-up. I regret nothing.
I had a salad, all local but the dressing. And then I made the pasta thing I always make: saute eggplant in olive oil and garlic, add to diced tomatoes, add some fresh basil, season to taste, simmer for what feels like forever, dump over pasta, add shredded mozzarella and a bit more basil and toss.
It's the only recipe I've ever made from this cookbook - [link] - and I've made it so many times I don't have to look. Plus I got eggplant in my produce box.
Okay, I'm going to scoop the pans and walk Frankie up and down the block, to assuage my pet guilt. After I put away leftovers. But before I go to bed.
Sounds yummy! I had the biggest Italian grinder for lunch which I have been craving for over a month now.
Happy birthday, Epic!!!
Tep, definitely get the 2nd opinion. I may not have a dentical degree, but I do know asshats when I see them.
Tomorrow is my first day of summer vacation! Yay! I've actually been done with school for 2 weeks, but as soon as school was over, I went to visit my parents and then got back home just in time for the first week of camp. So, tomorrow is my first real day off. Yay! I see inside pants and TeeVee in my future.
Oh, just a little more mememe. One of the guys I'm chatting with on OKC turns out to be my FAVORITE of the artists in Jackson Square. Wacky.
The guy that I had a date with last night? Is my karma. I'm the StW in this situation already, except a) I will not sleep with him and b) I won't string him along for a year, even if he swears he's okay with it. He's texting me pictures of the boat motor he's working on, and just telling me about his day and stuff, and I just. don't. care. He's calling me dear and darling already - he was doing that last night.
So I have to craft that message. I can't decide if it's worth it to ask him to cool back, or if I should just rip off the bandaid and tell him I'm not interested.
So I have to stop beginning every other sentence with "so". What's up with that, really?
I had a smoked pork poboy with coleslaw and spicy mayo for lunch. NOM.
Happy vacation, ChiKat!
