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

Dammit, I didn't remember until I got home that I'm out of dry cat food. I really don't want to go out again. This fucking day, man. I didn't take a lunch and stayed an extra hour, partially because my boss wanted to teach me something which, granted, is in fact useful but not applicable to the urgent thing I was working on that needed to be finished today. And I haven't eaten enough so everything is disproportionately upsetting. Argh.

OK, I went and got some goddamn catfood.

Actually, I feel better since I had two snacks. But really, someone else should talk so I don't keep whining about my non-problems.

Because books.

I can't talk. I've been sucked into a Teen Wolf marathon on MTV and I can't get out.

I stained the top rail : [link] (color is not representative. See some of the other photos for better, if not accurate, representation.)

Looks nice, sarameg.

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

Impressive, sarameg!

Here's a closeup from a flash camera: [link] Still not accurate (it is more brown than that) but you can see the grain! It was important to me to not lose that- uncovering it was a revelation. It may be lowly pine, but it is purty.

Our wings are not tired.

Commiserating with all of you today!

Erika, I feel your pain so to speak. Made yummy veggie chili, which I have eaten for several days, plus the hummus and curried cauliflower wrap I made for dinner. Anyway, that a whole lotta beans, y'all.

meara, grrrr, that is frustrating.

Juliebird, the city/county/whatever doesn't provide the bins? Whenever mine get ucky or busted up I just call or request new ones on line and they drop them off. Maybe I am spoiled here.

Go internet tech lisah! (I knew you had it in you!) Rah rah!

Now I love cabbage soup well enough, but not exclusively. I do have a recipe for caramelized cabbage with pasta and peas I have been looking to try someday soon that looked yummy.

-t, that sounds like a not fun day. I hope tomorrow is much smoother.

Wow sarameg, that looks great. I can appreciate the effort after having gone through stripping and staining our kitchen cabinets. Some of them really didn't want to take the stain well.

I like pine. And that seems like a pretty color.

OK, caught up on The Good Wife. My goodness.

I am so far behind on The Good Wife.

Tomorrow is cerberal palsy awareness day so I am opting to wear green (because that's both the CP orgs color and Grace's favorite).
