'Harm's Way'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I don't know if I'd like this cocktail, but it made me think of DavidS and Jilli, so I'm posting it
I kinda think I would like it? I don't know, I have Gin Issues. As in, there's something about gin that makes me scrunch my nose up and be not sure if I like it. Which is ridiculous, because I love the juniper soda that Dry Soda makes.
I've been enjoying browsing the 1940 Census all day! I'm very frustrated with Chicago, though, because although I found a map that I THINK shows my grandparents' neighborhood (I'm not sure they actually lived there yet), I can't figure out what census tract it then was.
I'd totally order that cocktail and have Jilli take a sip. There'd be nose scrunching all around for various bits of it. But it still sounds like it might really work. Or horrify all parties. But that is part of experimentation... You do risk squinchyface though. I wonder if it might end up too floral for me.
though I'm kind of avoiding Fast Food Fake Meat since the pink slime made me Think About My Choices.
But just avoiding fast food meat doesn't really avoid the potential for pink slimeness, no? I mean, fast food meat is more likely to not be animal bits at all and I don't really mind some TVP in my "meat." The creepy factor with the lean finely textured beef is that it can show up in a lot of ground beef like you'd buy at reputable supermarkets. Though possibly with JZ at home, you don't ever deal with buying ground beef.
If I focus (and, fuck, it takes a whole day of me not focusing to get to the hour or two of laser focus), I can pack for a longish weekend with family really quickly. Once I do laundry and figure out what to wear for a 45th surprise birthday party for my brother and then do NOT try to fix jewelry with tube of Advantage that I mistook for superglue briefly. Instead I stuck the stray sparkly bits in an old clean makeup jar with candle wax. Dad will have superglue that isn't all dried out like the tube I finally did find.

Of course I will then realize that I missed packing a pair of shoes.
And bras.
OMG, I nearly failed to pack bras! That would have been an expensive mistake. There is no faking that kind of thing.
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.
For what it's worth, those are tiny, tiny bones, not hair.
I do not believe fish goes on pizza. I feel like a pizza law has been violated.
Anchovies do not belong on pizza. They interfere with the pineapple.
Anchovies are traditional. It's pineapple that's suspect.
no.
no!
Anchovies and pineapple are just wrong in my world. It's also a world without shrimp.
Last night the Tylenol Cold meds made me punch drunk and giddy. This AM I am anxious and nervous, which is rare for me. I can't tell if it's stress bubbling up or the backlash of the meds.
