Hell, I don't know. If I had wanted schooling, I'da gone to school.

Ginger, how are you feeling today? I've been meaning to say something but I haven't been very good at that this week.

There is no such thing as too many pictures of ltc.

Ginger sorry the hospital stay is so frustrating I don't understand why things are made so much worse for sick people.

I have a cooking question. I have green beans and Brussel sprouts and never come up with a way to make them separately that doesn't use the same flavors. So would it be weird to cook them together? There is no bacon involved just sautéing and garlic and panko.

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

Do the green beans and Brussel sprouts cook at the same temperature and for the same time? If so, cooking them together makes sense to me.

My idea got vetoed by Mom. So I've got Brussel sprouts going to cook in panko and some apple cider vinegar and butter and she'll do green beans

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

My aunt called my mom to ask why I won't accept a Facebook friend request from my uncle.

Always Anti-fascist!

I just decided not to accept any more family members. Less scrolling later.ETA: thanks for the good wishes--since my expectations are totally doing the limbo, I almost bet it'd be better by default, but as Sheldon says "it's a social convention and not optional." although I hate my dad for pulling the "What if it's Grandma's last one?" card.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

That seems sensible and eminently self-preservation-ey.

I asked she agreed I don't want to go anywhere on Black Friday. Really.

AnD I feel horrible but 2 full days of my nephew is more than I can handle. It's not him just me nit used to being around people and the severe lack of soundproofing in the house.

I'm glad to be here but it's an adjustment. I already took extra klonopin and I don't think I can take any more without being so sleepy I'm incoherent.
