The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Tattoo consultation results: the design needs a few minor tweaks (enlarging the heads of the keys so the dates can be done clearly and with no bleed-through of linework), and my tattooist does NOT use UV ink. (He then said consolingly, "But I've got a kick-ass pink that you'd really like ...")

The appointment has been scheduled for the evening of Saturday, Sept. 8th.

Also, he was wearing one of the best Harry Potter t-shirts I've ever seen: [link]

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

For me eggplant is more a texture issue. Along with mushrooms. And sometimes squash, depending on how it's cooked.

meara's texture issues are mine. Most mushrooms will actually trigger a gag reflex from texture alone.

Dinner was very nommy. CJ gave it a thumbs up. I don't cook often, but I do know how to cook.

I always avoid eggplant. Not because I’m allergic; just because it’s really, really gross.

More baba ganoush for me! Though I freely admit that making it from scratch was the worst cooking experience of my life.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

If it's after 10pm, and there are eleventy-zillion kids outside my window shouting "SHUT UP!!!" at each other loud enough for me to hear it on the fourth floor as if they're standing in my living room....am I within my rights to start shouting it back at them?

Seriously, parents in whichever building that is, your kids are too damn loud.

You're a failure if you don't turn the hose on them.

Uh, yeah? But I'm the lady in the hood who yells at people and makes kids clean up after their mayhem. So I'm definitely the bitchy neighborlady with few qualms.

Oh sigh. Our Y had to turn off the gas, which means no hot water, which changes my plans for tomorrow. Today, I left the house only twice and I still walked 12,000 steps because today I prep cooked ALL THE THINGS which included prepping over 20 lbs of chicken, 4 lbs of pork, 4 lbs of beef into about 17 meals and then freezing them.

I am tired. But I have to grade.

Your current Y the one we went to up to? My Y will open the pool as long as it is over 65 (lowest it has been is 70, and WHOA) and god knows after tournaments where they let the teams use the locker rooms, there is NO hot water left. But that's different than infrastructure stuff. I do wish I'd dithered less today and done more. But I need plans, and all of them got derailed. And I'm still itchy.

Ah well, tomorrow is another day. Without storms, I hope.
