I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm sorry you've lost people, Liese.

I know I've had orzo, but I've never tried making it. *adds to list* I recently tried making a lentil-rice pilaf from scratch, and it turned out slimy. The directions said to cook the lentils and rice separately, and I didn't, so the failure's probably on me. Oh well. Good thing rice and lentils are cheap. Next time I'll follow the recipe properly.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I'm so happy about the woo nurse!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Nurse news is good news, and long overdue.

SHE FOLLOWS THE DOCTOR'S DIRECTIVES

YAY!

I love orzo, and more importantly, my kids love orzo. So we eat a lot of it. It makes a good starchy base for just about anything you can name.

So happy that the nurse visit went OK.

In other news, 6/1 odds of a Pope Scola.

Our wings are not tired.

Woo nurse, with added Woo! Just knowing what to expect the next 3 weeks and not having to play ER lotto has to be a big relief.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Yay for good nursing!

I suspect the talkativeness is a necessary feature, because she's going to have to stay keenly aware of your mental and physical state while administering what are pretty major drugs. It's even better attentiveness than you get in an ER, with different people popping in and out without much idea of how you're tracking overall.

She'll probably back off a bit once she gets a good baseline on how you react....

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I like to make orzo that tastes like risotto. Boil it in just in chicken broth instead of water in a 3 to 1 ratio. Pour off any extra liquid (leaving a little bit behind), add some butter and grated cheese. So yummy!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Does anyone know if I can find the Baftas telecast online anywhere? I found the highlights, but was hoping to get the whole thing.

IME, nurses are just generally chatty people.

6/1 odds of a Pope Scola.

And 25/1 on Pope Hummes! BUFFISTA POPE FIGHT!
