I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I promised myself I would do a deep clean of the whole house this weekend, which I am pretty sure makes me a lying liar who lies, but the kitchen and front nook area are a lot cleaner than they were at least.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm pretty sure no one can do a deep clean of the whole house in a weekend.

Well done!

I wonder if I can find something like a pot roast recipe with Mediterranean flavors that I can use for my goat shoulder. That sounds good.

Oh, crap, time to wash more dishes.

How Mediterranean? I had a Provencal beef stew in Paris that had olives in it. And gnocchi, but I feel like regular potatoes would have been at least as good.

I was thinking like that cinnamon-cardamom-cumin sort of flavor profile? Olives do sound good, though.

I wish I could tell you anything else about the stew I had! But otherwise, it was pretty regular stew flavor, with mushrooms and carrots.

Well, I have a "classic pot roast" recipe that calls for mushroom and carrots that I can probably adapt and throw into the crockpot tomorrow. Maybe I'll, like, rub the goat with spices beforehand.

I love anything that is dry rub, frankly. If you have a herbes de provence, then your stew might taste vaguely mediterranean?

Shot given two hours ago. This medicine hurts for a bit after, which is no good.

I have an accreditation visit at school for which I co-wrote the accreditation report. It starts tomorrow. As does the bit of cookie boothing I'm supposed to do.

I cannot tell you how exhausted I am. I just have to make it through Tuesday.

I've been watching Disney movies in my room since I last posted and the tension is finally leaving my body. I think this is the first day in a while that I wore my boot all day and was doing stuff all day. Normally while I work I take my boot off since I'm not walking.

Tomorrow is packing, Costco (already confirmed that they have electric carts), and then making some freezer meals. I can do a fair bit of that sitting, so I'm going to try to be easier on myself.

Tuesday is close...you can DO IT!!!
