Wow Consuela--scary and exciting!
Buffy: A Guide, but no water or food. So it leads me to the sacred place and then a week later it leads you to my bleached bones? Giles: Buffy, really. It takes more than a week to bleach bones.

Wow, that'll really be a new kitchen!
Woo, Burrell, go you! I do not like baba ghanoush myself, except on very rare occasions when can only assume whoever made it did some kind of magic to make it tasty, so in my head you have done magic. Wooden spoon with shiny ribbon sticker!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Demo is so scary and it makes you realize "Hey, my house is not an inviolable fortress. It's just a box made out of some stuff."
Speaking of renovation--they installed our shower door on Sunday and I took my first shower in it this morning. AND IT WAS FUCKING GREAT.

Yay!
I have most of breakfast made, and lunch for tomorrow. Flan is chillin' in the fridge, but I have little confidence in it. I should probably go ahead and make lunch for the day after tomorrow, then I won't have any cooking hanging over me tomorrow. I'll still need to poach an egg Wednesday morning, but I don't really see a way around that.

I am home, despite a 45 min flight delay and only one lane open on 95n. Cabbie took a back way and I tipped him extra knowing I was his last fare and he had to go home the same way.
My house smells like cat box from being 80 10 days. And one of the cats barfed on my bed and only my bed. Several times. And I have to go to work tomorrow. Not unpacking clothes, just toiletries.
Oof.

Well that sounds like quite a homecoming. Still, glad you made it.
Serious Eats told me how to store poached eggs for later, so I am trying that.

Ugh sarameg, not the greatest welcome home

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Welcome home, sara!
Happy birthday, Kiba Rika!

Oof sara. That's a lot to come home to.
