And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

I thought you nicknamed your work guy Tino because of MSCL! Ha!

Which would be kind of obscure, I guess, but I loved that show a lot.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

(For the record, I started the Tino thing - he was an actual guy I had to work with for a once-a-year event when I lived in GA. And he did not respond to emails and his voice mail was always full.)

That's what I thought! Funny about MSCL.

I did too!

I need hivemind help. I have twelve frozen pig legs that I need defrosted by 8:00 am. I want to leave work. Should I leave them out to defrost or put them in the fridge. If they are not defrosted it is bad, but I also don't want them to smell. Smelling is slightly better than not defrosted because they need to suture. They do have to last until 11 am.

When I put them in the fridge, no defrosting happens because it is a mini fridge and it is so small.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I don't know that they'll defrost quick enough in the fridge.

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

I would leave them out if I wanted them defrosted if in the morning so I could, say, cook and eat them. Unless it's 90 degrees where they will be overnight, I guess?

In a sink with the water running would be ideal, but not, in this case, practical it sounds like.

I can leave them in a giant plastic bin, which is what I am going to do. I have access to a sink in the morning, but you have to stand on the foot pedal to make the water run!

Go team giant plastic bin, then.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Sophia, is this a nursing school classwork thing, or a BBQ thing?

ION, my toenails are dark blue but my head still hurts. I need a new plan of attack. Maybe a shower.

Thank you guys for the reassurance. I just didn't want to come in to, like, maggots or something!

Steph- Nursing School Classwork. Although we possibly could have a BBQ after or make traditional Italian-American sauce.
