Oh, gosh, I love orange sherbet. Between a good orange sherbet and a good chocolate ice cream, I think I'd pick the sherbet.
I got stabbed, you know, right here.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
One of my Facebook friends (she's a friend of a friend, really, but our mutual friend suggested that we should be friends with each other) has now gone beyond posting Clinton conspiracy theories, and is now liking 9/11 truther stuff.

I have trouble following basketball when I am watching it and listening with no visuals does not improve my comprehension, but I got the gist.
Yeah, I really can't follow the game on the radio, except for when they report the score. And since I cut my cable, I had to go to my sister's house to watch. But it was fun, except for when Curry went into the stands and banged up his elbow, which then swelled up like a baseball and he kept playing. WTF, dude, sit this one out, you are up by 25 pts!
Have you all heard about caramel sugar? It's a thing you can do: roast sugar on low heat in the oven and it turns slowly into caramel flavors, and then you bake with it! [link] I made the sugar last night, and made cookie dough tonight, and tomorrow I will bake some cookies before book club. Fingers crossed.

I did see about caramel sugar--was it tasty? Did it add something to the dough?

Yes, it definitely has added something. I only roasted the sugar for three hours, as I wanted to go to bed. Next time maybe more.
I'm hoping the cookies turn out well: they will be Cook's Illustrated chewy oatmeal with extra ginger and a bit of orange rind. We'll see.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I just got my 400th follower on Tumblr!
Of course, that's 400 followers collected over 4½ years, so probably like 90% of them are inactive by now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh what a relief -- my team member who just got a PIP just put in her notice. So her manager doesn't have to actually let her go, which seems like a kindness. The team member is great in many ways, but this job is the definition of a "bad fit."

I have a one night, at home sleep study on June 1st. Has anyone done this before? I'm already getting nervous that I won't be able to have a representative night's sleep.
Of course, the last three days I haven't had any surprise naps.

Good luck with that, Suzi.
Glad that worked out, Jesse.
I am pretty inactive, Tom, but I passively enjoy following you.
Ooh, it's Health Fair day, I get a free massage. Woohoo!
