Carbonated hummus= gone off. I've noticed the cilantro jalepeño one tends to go faster, I suspect the acid. So all I had was carrots.

When I left for the pool @5, 2 helicopters were just hovering a bit north of me, very odd. Triple shooting, one dead, in the neighborhood just to the north. Street's a cut-through I use a lot; I recognized the house immediately. Freaky! (But it's on That Side of 39th...) It definitely a struggling 'hood. Right across another street from one of the richest neighborhoods in Baltimore City. Crazy city.

Aaand it turns out the copters were for an unrelated stolen vehicle pursuit at the same time. WTF, NE Balt??

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Being a parent can suck beyond the telling if it.

Thanks be for whiskey.

Hey, guys, cooking question. If the sauce I cooked meat in contains yogurt, is it a bad idea to save and re-use it?

not your mom's socks.

I am currently failing at being a respectful daughter. I am also spitting mad. The two are, unfortunately, related.

Scrappy, I'm glad DH is ok.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

chrismg, I don't see why not, as long as it's thoroughly cooked. I'd be more worried about the meat part than the yogurt part.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

$775 for Joan's dress last night. I was actually rooting for separates. And affordable. Definitely that.

Grey's last night was boring. Uninvolving, and the decision at the end...WTF? Normally I drift away from eps, this one I skipped ahead to the 45 minute mark. And then drifted.

Since the meat was cooked through, it should be OK. Thanks!

Sox, just take care of yous. Scrappy! Yikes! Yay for gear.

Why is it I want to get stuff for me just before the holidays in my money-crunch season*? Always happens. I now know what shelves and new coffee table I want. But I want it now, and not something I can 'get' for xmas. And I need a new chair cover for the one Loki destroyed (I know how to stop him, but the damage is already done.) And money-crunch season.

And now it is raining and I have to do leaves this weekend. Uhg.

* bunch of semi-annual bills come due over the course of the next few months. Plus the xmas extravaganza. Plus new crown. I just feel like I bleed money from November to up to May and then it calms for a bit. Unless I have an ER visit in rural nowhere on a sunday. throws up hands

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Weird, when I went out to pick up takeout on a break from work tonight the main drive past the mall was blocked off with over a dozen police cars (looked like half the city's on duty cops), but I only saw one wrecker with one wrecked car as I tried to navigate around the jam. I'm wondering what in the world required that much of a police presence - was it the Blues Brothers' car that got in a wreck?
