'The Message'
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.
sp? why can't I spell pomegranate?'
Because it looks so weird! But tastes so delicious.
On the gimlet tip, I had a The Last Word recently, which was really really good. Apparently I only drink gin drinks now, although I would still tell you I don't really like gin.
I just want you all to know that I caved and called the dermatologist (I am not messing with my PCP, as last time he gave me something that made it worse and referred me to the dermatologist).
The next appointment is August 13th!!! So I do have an appointment now!

Oh, that looks good, although I'm not a gin person either. If I can tell it's gin, I don't like it.
I got strawberries at the farmers market. They are massively superior to grocery store strawberries. I should try making jam.
Timelies all!
Trying to figure why I suddenly am feeling stressed. Nothing happened today. (Actually, that may be the problem, as I've been waiting for a person I interviewed with June 1 to let me know her decision. That plus the Fed Ex guys having not shown up to pick up my package by the time I left at 4:15. They said between 9:30 am and 5 pm, but I was hoping for closer to the former)
I have to admit the Deviled Eggs Parade sounds fun, but when it comes to it, any party where the theme is basically 'bring an appetizer and a cocktail" is going to be a winner.
I should be working in the backyard weeding the garden. For some UNKNOWN reason I can't be arsed to start.
Frank, let us know if there's anything anyone can do. Many of us have been through those wars too.
They don't want to use my portacath for the nerve block. Bunch of bullshit. They could have already accessed me, with no pain, but instead they're scrubbing and poking my dehydrated arm (nothing to drink for over twelve hours...). But apparently no one in the building (ambulatory surgery) is certified.
God, I miss my ER nurses.
No one there is certified to use your portacath, but starting a new IV is fine? That's complete bullshit.
Utter bullshit. I smite them for you, ita !.

Last Words are good, as are the variations (Ultima Palabra - tequila, Final Word - bourbon). If you're in a gin mood, and are at a cocktail bar, ask them for a Casino:
2 oz gin
1/2 oz Luxardo (maraschino liqueur)
1/2 oz fresh lemon juice
2 dashes orange bitters (Regan's for preference)
1 brandied or Luxardo cherry for garnish
Shake, double-strain, garnish with cherry
