Jayne, your mouth is talking. You might wanna look to that.

I would walk a 5K right now quite cheerfully if it weren't so goddamn cold outside.

Well, I was going to make dal, but I only have red onion. Target had no white onions and one very suspicious looking yellow onion that I chose not to buy. The closest grocery was a Dominick's, and they shut down on the 28th, so I've decided to have broccoli mac & cheese instead.

This is freaky. He got so much right!

Huh. Not bad, Brunner.

My upstairs neighbor always does hoppin' John and greens for our New Year's brunch, and my neighbor across the way usually brings sausage balls, so I'm covered.

Is anyone making plans/resolutions for 2014? I'm hoping to spend at least a month trying Tai Chi and I'm also planning on listening to Wagner's Ring cycle.

ETA, Death Comes to Pemberly, Sue? I saw the first two episodes last weekend and quite liked it.

I'm celebrating by having my water heater fixed. Feh. Fingers crossed I also get to crlebrate with a hot shower at some point.

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

Feh indeed, brenda. That hot shower will be excellent, though, I have no doubt.

Home sweet home. Now I really don't know what to do with myself. Lunch, perhaps?

Yes! I'm looking forward to it.

My workplace had a spate of hot water heater failures this fall. Three of us had to get them replaced within 6 weeks and I was the only one that didn't have a flood.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hot showers never disappoint, I find.

I should iron and hang my new curtains (the last of the curtains I need? I certainly hope so), to Start The New Year Off Right, but I don't feel like it. Ah well.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

What makes no-bake cheesecake solidify? There's no gelatin in it?

Punishingly Intricate

I have no idea what I'm going to wear tonight. And I've got to catch up on my diary before midnight. I've been writing down good things that happen every day this year but I've slacked off the last couple of weeks.

Did a load of laundry with no drain issues. Still, tomorrow will be requesting estimates. And calling warranty on the off-off chance that they might cover some of the line replacement.

Ooh, that's such a good idea! Do you have one of those three-line diaries?

I thought I might go to the liquor store, and.... yeah, no.
