Punishingly Intricate

I'm in the middle of organizing our freezers--regular one and the chest freezer we got this year. Did the regular one, the most onerous of the freezers, and am throwing away so much stuff. Ugh. I've gotten pretty religious about labeling so I hope that helps minimize this issue in the future. Also keeping a list of what's in each freezer right by each.

Man, I have every kind of nut, many in multiple formats. Almonds--whole, slivered, sliced, smoked!

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

That Frankenstein encore is playing near me, this time, but only on Monday and Wednesday evening. I don't know if I can manage weeknight movie going.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm upgrading all the Macs in the house to Yosemite. This started last night when DH's computer suddenly decided it didn't want to connect to our router and every other troubleshooting technique suggested by the interwebs failed. My laptop upgraded in about three minutes and is now running beautifully. The Mini we use as a media center and DH's MacbookPro are taking their sweet time.

I did my mini on Thursday, took a couple of tries due to my ongoing memory issues with that computer but otherwise went smoothly. Nervous about upgrading the laptop for some reason.

One gargantuan bag of leaves collected and more already piling up. Ah, fall. Now I gotta go vacuum and mop. Which might be frustrating as I need new belts for the vacuum.

Pumpkin really likes chicken empanadas.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

-t, go, it's so worth it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Frankenstein is only playing around here on Friday night, and I'm not sure that I want to deal with driving home afterwards, when downtown will be filled with drunk people. (And driving downtown is usually pretty hazardous anyway, because nobody seems to ever realize that, when they're walking and they get to a curb, they ought to look up from their phones for a second before they continue walking.)

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

This Friday night? Yeah, I'm not sure that's wise.

It's also a football weekend. The county rescheduled trick-or-treating for Thursday, because they think it'll be too dangerous on Friday, with all the extra cars on the roads for the football game.

Today I give my kitchen the attention it deserves and hasn't received in way too long.

As soon as I stop being fascinated by a Vitamix on TV. Is it as magical as it seems?

Then laundry while I clean. Here I go with load #1.
