I forgot to pick up a couple of ingedients (scallions and water chestnuts), but I think the spinach dip I made this morning will still be good for the family Christmas party in a few hours. Sadly my dad has decided he doesn't want to get out in the cold, so he's taking a pass on it this year.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Holy crapballs -- the temperature went below freezing in between when the neighbor did the snowblower and when I went out to clean up behind him, and it was a nightmare! A nightmare of chipping ice. Tired.

I must have good instincts for the change in weather. The snow chnaged to ice pellets about 3 minutes after I went outside to shovel.
In other news, ice pellets on the face hurt.

Does anyone here have a Wii? Do you use the fitness bits? I'm doing a review and looking for others willing to talk about the BMI algorithm the Wii uses. I like a lot about this platform. Except for one thing. GUESS WHICH THING.

I do, Sox. Sort of, anyway.

Want to send me some thoughts and tell me whether you'd like to be anonymous? profile addy is good.

Port of Call did have cream cheese! For about twice as much as the grocery store, but in absolute dollars it's not too bad of a convenience charge. Good thing that's all I needed, though.
ETA: I don't know that I have any pertinent thoughts? I use it for tracking my weight, ignore the BMI numbers, and am annoyed that the little graph that shows before I choose my Mii doesn't actually show anything (I do have further thoughts about the way the graphs in general are scaled if that would be of interest)

My new roommate has begun moving in! Somehow I am not yet up and packing for my trip today, nor am I cleaning my room. Both of which are rather desperately needing to happen.
I am relieved (insert mild ladybits spoilerfont) that the cramps I had in the middle of the night were actually my period coming a week early, and not just weird "ow why is my body cramping".

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Aw, Peter O'Toole died.

On a side note, as a result of being so sick, I hadn't smoked for several days, and though I bought a pack Friday, now that I can taste things again, I am kinda naused out by more than 2 puffs.
And since the kiddo gets here in three days, I am actually kind of excited to not be all-smoking-all-the-time girl.
I'm not going to say I am quitting (because Murphy's Law is A Thing, especially during the holidays) but I will say I am cutting WAY back.
