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.
Ooh, Suzi, how'd you do the couscous? I just bought a whole new big thing of it, and am thinking about how to use it.
I saw some nice mule deer bucks tonight on the way home. I even took their picture, but it turned out too blurry for facebook. I like where I live.
Tomorrow's kayaking is off, though, the woman with whom I was going is instead going to Reno to see her dying father. Sad.
We were yelling at the 5k too!
Oooh, and now the women's 4x400! Can't wait.
I'd love to know what the GCS blend is. I assume there's chocolate in it.
re: sodastream. someone from my twitter feed said this:
Just heard about an unorthodox SodaStream technique —refrigerate water first, then carbonate.
refrigerate water first, then carbonate.
Wait, what?? Why wouldn't you do it that way?? Are you not supposed to? Because that's how I've always done it, so I have immediately drinkable soda. .
Also, can I just share that I am NOT a spoken-word person. It makes me feel awkward. And my friends know this. But my friends also do that shit. So I went, to be supportive...and one of the people reading was reading about how she had gotten divorced and decided to start going on OKCupid dates, and blah blah...and I was on the edge of my seat the whole time WRITHING from the awkward, because I HAD BEEN ON AN OKCUPID DATE WITH HER. AND I WAS IN THE FRONT ROW. Jesus. Save me from small fucking lesbian worlds. (Apparently she also recently was dating the same girl as my ex-roommate, for a bit, and that girl was the roommate of a girl I hooked up with at Pride, and...yeah)
Unorthodox? Pretty sure it's in the instructions, even. Aside from getting cold soda right away, it takes more fizz, and isn't that the whole point?
Yup, I keep carafes of water in the fridge ready to be fizzed because the manual said to.
Meats, that is some classic sitcom material right there. Meep!
I don't usually have enough room in my fridge for an on-deck sodastream bottle, so I wind up drinking it room temp. (Firstest world problem ever???)
I used to keep a running carafe, one fizzed and one unfizzed, but it has been a long time since I've been that organized.
My first world problem for the day? Someone gave me a receiver, which has rendered my in ceiling speakers back functional, only they're only giving me left channel. It has a built in amp, but I didn't like the amp sound, so I put my old amp back in the chain, so there are a few places to troubleshoot. But right now I'm so happy to have it back I'm not even doing it, just listening to unbalanced audio.
