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

Bacon is salty, ita!

Guess who buys low sodium bacon? One guess!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

AHA. Missing a paycheck from February. Seriously though, what is the point of syncing data with the bank if it's going to miss shit like that?

I am in favor of both bacon and anchovies. Also olives, capers, and other salty things.

One of the local Mexican places had a cashier whose English was not the best. Fortunately burrito dell pollo con no pico is easy, if not necessarily grammatically correct. She looked so happy to have someone she could understand, and was very disappointed when I answered her return Spanish with "No la usted." It's amazing how much I remember from high school and what I've picked up around here. And giving the girls dirty looks when they smile at me and sweetly say "puta" is very gratifying.

What did you want to say with "No la usted"?

Also if you want to say "con no" the word for "without" is "sin" (pronounced seen)

But as I'd happily consider a salt lick snack food if not for blood pressure issues, they're right up my alley.

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

anchovies are hairy. ewwwww.

HAIRY? Aren't they fish? How are fish hairy? The talk of saltiness was making me consider trying them, but ew. Hairy cancels out salty.

One of my goddamned girlcats just managed to fuckup the work I've been doing. I don't even know how bad but my db person can fix in the morning. But GODDAMNIT. Stupid heatseekers.

Lee, the Del Taco is near Civic Center on Market.

I don't know if I'd like this cocktail, but it made me think of DavidS and Jilli, so I'm posting it

Intriguing! Yeah, I've seen a lot of fancy mixologists doing stuff with tea because it's basically another infusion and they do those all the time anyway.

I get the greasy/cheesy Taco Bell love, though I'm kind of avoiding Fast Food Fake Meat since the pink slime made me Think About My Choices.

I know this sounds weird, but taking my cue from the food trucks I've been satisfying that cheap food craving with tacos I make with Trader Joe's turkey meatballs. (With Srichacha sauce, melted cheese on the tortilla and baby spinach.) It's really good, and turkey meatballs are savory and delish but easy on my getting-older-objecting-to-red-meat stomach.
