That's cool, Jilli
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Beet pesto is in the freezer along with zucchini and black bean burrito fixings! And I still need to blanch more zucchini and do something with the cauliflower, oy.
I can't deal with cooking after work at all, and also cooking for just one is not the best. So I have to have food I can just eat.
Yeah, I'm finding with the long commute + stress that I'm making terrible food choices lately and my weight has crept back up, so I'm trying to help myself along by making a bunch of healthy stuff I can just reheat, no excuses.
Also, I bought too much at the farmer's market last Sunday and I'll be out of town for a week.

The status is NOT quo.
Woo hoo, Jilli! I sense some celebrating in our future. (SO EXCITED TO SEE YOU SOON.)
Ugh, Burrell, sorry.
I ran a half marathon this morning in BRUTAL heat (we started at 6 a.m., and I still felt like I was going to die by mile 9), so I did a lot of flopping this afternoon. But I was very good and did several hours of my grad class work including getting a jump on next week, so I’ve got that going for me.
I teach all five classes in a row tomorrow (7:50 - 3:00 with one 40-minute lunch break), so I’ve decided I’m done with work now. I’m going to watch this week’s Doctor Who, eat Indian food, and go to bed as soon as possible.

Sounds like a plan, Pix. Admirable running in this heat!

Go you! ... wait, BRUTAL heat?

Oh ... dear. I'm gonna rethink what I'm planning on packing. Dammit, this means no velvet for going to see Crimson Peak.

The bad heat will be done by Tuesday. It will be in the 80s and less humid by the time you get here with 60s at night.
Today in Pasadena it was 103, which is RIDICULOUS for this time of year. But yes, I think velvet is still likely a bad idea.

Thrive to spite them
Here in lovely Vermont the high should be 73 Monday.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I’m going to watch this week’s Doctor Who, eat Indian food, and go to bed as soon as possible.
I will say but one thing about this week's ep: I think they've tweaked the theme music in a Capaldi way, and for the better.

I am on my way to the airport. I'm so tired that I'm glad I only have to be transported from one country to another today.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Have a good flight!
I have two acorn and one butternut squash in the oven, to become bread and pasta and who knows what else. I may end up making both the pasta thing and the enchiladas.
I'm definitely not going to the office, but may do some work here. And maybe I'll bail on seeing my father? I really don't feel like getting dressed.
