You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

Doesn't freezing kind of frell with the texture? Or do you puree it once it's thawed?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I've slid TJ's guac (the Avocado's Number kind because I cannot resist that pun) into the freezer just tapping the original cover back into place and hoping for the best, and it worked out really quite well.

I've also frozen half an avocado, just in a ziploc, and it didn't get all brown, so maybe the cold retards oxidation some? Or maybe I am just lucky, sometimes.

Not that I noticed, Jessica.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

And I just realized that freezing it in small Ziploc baggies would be even better probably. You can squeeze all of the air out. I don't think to freeze in baggies usually.

I very rarely end up with excess avocado but it's exciting to look in my freezer and find unexpected guacamole.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

My relationship with my boss is . . . tumultuous. We are one with cats and goofy clothes and swear jars and having each others backs and boosting up each others insecurities. We also drive each other nuts, especially when she feels out of control and takes to directing my every move and thought, and I take to acting like I haven't had a boss for the past three years (which I haven't, I've been the boss for the past three years).

Then again, she's been forthright about having quite the mispent youth, dropping acid and running away.

So, I know she's no stranger to fucking up and fucking around, but who she is today is an anal neat/control-freak. So on one hand I think she'd be understanding, on the other I fear it'd be a strike against me to have let my personal life slip so far out of whack to land me in the situation that I'm in.

It's also my own press that I'm a goody-goody who never does anything wrong, and growing up with two brothers who are always f-ing up, and the burden was on me to never do so, that my parents had enough stress with the boys, so any major failing of mine I've always tried to cover up. I'm just not used to being the one that fails. I'm . . . my public persona is that I'm not the fuck-up. Everything I do is private, I'm not used to having my dirty laundry aired, or, you know, owning it.

It's a little less textural after freezing but they're already mashed and it doesn't change much. I am not a fan of really smooth guacamole, for context. I like chunky avocado bits.

Amazeballs, I have to try that.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Man, I have the worst case of the don't-wannas.

Nor do I have guacamole.

I now freeze avocados. chunk them or smoosh them and put in some lemon juice - they've done great.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I don't know if I need to call Time Warner or Jaguar PC.

For what it's worth, I lost my TW a few minutes ago. (I just reset my air thingy).
