SLEEP ON THE PLANE
THAT"S MY PLAN
Scheduled payments for all the bills that come due while I am gone. Time for a tasty beverage.
Zoe: What's that, sir? Mal: Freedom, is what. Zoe: No, I meant what's that? Mal: Oh. Yeah. Just step around it. I think something must've been living in here.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Jilli, that was a perfect Wednesday moment.

I am the opposite. I actively despise DST. It fucks up everything I do from commuting to work all the way through getting my children into bed. LOATHE.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Apparently, Hawaii doesn't do DST. So, now I am an additional hour off from all of you, but the sun still rises and sets at the same time it did

I may have made a tactical error and left myself with no clean towels for tomorrow. Not gonna get up and check the linen closet right now. I'll figure it out in the morning.
I don't like it either, Kat. I don't mind it in the middle of summer when there is just so much daylight shuffling it around a little doesn't matter so much, but right now it is exactly what I don't need.

Does anyone know how people find out the FICA score without paying for it
Do you have any credit cards? Capital One has a link where you can check your credit score.

I forced Dan to get a teeny credit balance Cap One card just a month ago! (Damn good thing, too, else we'd be starving right now.)
I'll ask him! (and I need to get a copy of the card for myself, too, dammit.)
Thanks, Connie!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I prefer DST for all the named reasons.
Given those foodie-depressing parameters, what should I do to get chicken soup that tastes of more than salty water with meat, noodles, and veggies?
I always start my stocks/soups/sauces by sauteeing onion in butter and olive oil. Easiest way to add depth of flavor. Classically you can go with a mirepoix which is onion, carrot and celery.
I add garlic later in the cooking (despite it being a strong flavor it is kind of delicate and dissipates quickly). I also add (depending on the soup) things like: Worcestershire sauce, sherry, wine, fish sauce (works surprisingly well even in Western dishes).

I will be fixing this on Thursday, oh yes I will.
