I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Oh, Jesus. Tim is constitutionally incapable of deciding things. If I ask him the open-ended "what do you want for dinner?" he responds with a totally blank look, like I just started speaking Swahili. So I tend to either offer 2 choices ("Do you want stir-fry or tamales for dinner?"), or I ask if my choice is okay ("Is stir-fry okay for dinner?") And that generally works.

I have the same problem. Which is compounded by my dietary restrictions, so poor M is not only coping with me unable to decide, but he has to remember what I can and cannot eat. Which is why we eat at the same places so often.

Dana, I'm sorry everything is so bumpy right now.

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

Even if I could cook, I'm sure I would be incapable of looking at what's about to go bad in the fridge and making a meal out of them. That's a superpower, to me.

I need to turn in my adult card. The milk in my fridge? Expired March 20th. Granted, I rarely drink/use milk, but DANG. I need a minder.

Zenkitty, it takes a lot of practice and learning enough recipes to know what ingredients work well together. I'm not saying I'd go on Chopped or anything, but given enough familiarity with the ingredients, I could take a mystery basket and come up with dinner.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

In Toronto now, taking advantage of the free wireless in the lobby.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

We're on the phone with the realtor now. It is sounding like more of a bump, so thank god for that. It will still mean that we have to put some more money into it, but hopefully it won't be terrible.

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

I can make something I would be willing to eat out of whatever is lying around (assuming whatever is lying around is stuff I don't hate, and since no one else shops for groceries in my house that's usually not an issue). It's a low bar, believe me.

Always Anti-fascist!

I kind of have a crush on Carla Gugino so I'm sorry I missed that show on lots of levels.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

learning enough recipes to know what ingredients work well together.

There's a book called the Flavor Bible that basically is a huge book listing different foods/spices/etc., and then listing what else goes well with them. I keep meaning to get it, because I think it would help me a lot.

Did you ever see the miniseries of The Buccaneers? I think it was Masterpiece Theatre, but I know it's on DVD.

My swim was stormed out halfway through. Bah. Ah well, it wasn't going well tonight anyway. Start fresh tomorrow.
