The carnitas came out delicious. I don't know what kind of pigs this heritage pork comes from, but they are tasty.
I was gonna say watching football is stressing me out, as it often does, but it just got a lot better.
That's one spunky little girl you've raised. I'm gonna eat her.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Uh, not so much, now.

I knew it even as I said it I was speaking too soon, but I really was more relaxed for a little while there.

Oh, yeah, it was very soothing for a while. Now? Now there is yelling.

Yup.
I haven't woken the dog, though, so I'm showing some restraint...

The good news is that both Carolina and Atlanta are getting clobbered.

I overslept a bit because yesterday just. didn't. end. I was woken at 6AM yesterday by my brother dropping off his 6-year-old daughter so he (and my older nieces & BIL) could drive to Sacramento for a metric century bicycle ride.
So I was up, with a 6-yo. With no shoes, because her father had forgotten them. I cut down a pair of throwaway flip-flops from a nail parlor for her, and we took the dog for a short walk, then made pancakes, then cleaned up, then went to Target for shoes. Then we spent 3 hours at Children's Fairyland (which I do not understand why Disney hasn't sued their pants off yet), then I drove to San Jose for her to play hockey (in which she mostly skated around in circles outside the play), and then drove back to my sister's house, and then went home & fed the dog and slept for 40 minutes, then went back to my sister's house for a birthday party for the 22-yo niece, then drove Dad home, then utterly collapsed. OMG what a day.
Today I have run, and bought some groceries, and made yogurt-curry egg salad, and mixed up fruitcake, which is now in the oven. Now to do laundry and vacuum and clean up the many many dirty bowls from the fruitcake-making, and somewhere find the time to look at all the election stuff so I can vote.
Oy. Makes me tired just thinking of it.

This is not putting me in a more productive mood.
ETA I meant football, but your day is also making me tired, Consuela. That is a lot!

Can you believe Brees just made that first down?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, I just put away several weeks' worth of worn-once clothes, so that's good.
