Mother effers. I just spend an hour and a half working on a thing that I thought was on my plate only to hear, "Oh, that other person re-worked it and gave it to Bigwig for his review, so maybe hold off for now." I wouldn't have done anything if I had known that!

Natter 75: More Than a Million Natters Served
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
On the other hand, my coworker just shared this recipe with me, and look how perfect it is! It calls for freezing the cookie dough before baking, so then you can just bake one or five at a time!. [link]
Boo on doing unnecessary work, yay for cookie recipe!
And now: Yay weekend!!!
The recent "best chocolate chip cookie" from Kenji Lopez-Alt, I made a couple times, and did that, made balls and then froze them. I did make a small batch using the frozen dough, one day. And the other days I just ate the frozen dough. Oops.
those cookies look delicious
I seem to have lost my power cable. Shoot.

Mr. S is in bed. Wrangling him seems to get tougher each day.
Dates are locked down for this expedition. They have recommended their private travel agent to book our flights, at a cost of $150 per person. I'm trying to decide if it's worth it: do travel agents really get better flights or better prices than online systems like Kayak do? (I have given up on Google Flights, they seem to get entirely different, and more expensive, flights than Kayak does.)
Using their agent will probably make connections smoother it's possible they might get a block rate or something for savings, but I don't know the reality of that.
Jury selection continued to Monday. Like 6 dismissals so far, I'm just in the pool, don't know what that means for Monday.
