That transition to beyond naps is a tough one, SJ. I feel you on it.
...because God knows you need some satisfaction in life besides shagging Captain Cardboard! And I never really liked you anyway. And you have stupid hair!

Post-naps, pre-reading sounds like a nightmare.

It is. Luckily she thinks she can read. On the negative side she won't do quiet time alone in her room.

Aw, ltc, give your mom a break.
I have been feeling not quite sick but not really right for a couple of days. The idea has leapt into my mind that fried chicken would make me feel better. That doesn't seem really likely, but maybe worth a try? Would require getting dressed.

I'd recommend chicken in noodle soup form over fried if you're feeling queasy, -t.
It didn't take on me, probably largely because I hail from an interfaith family and so shit like "you shouldn't date a non-Christian; it's nice to think you can raise them up but they are more likely to drag you down" was guaranteed to just piss me off.
Where exactly is that passage in the Bible where Jesus tells his Disciples to shun nonbelievers out in the world because they might get icky heathen cooties, again?

That's a very reasonable suggestion, Matt. Would still require getting dressed, so we'll see if I'm up for it. Maybe tomorrow.

2 Corinthians 6:14? That's not Jesus though.

So I was going to make lentils today, but instead I made cookies. Oops. At least they are mostly in the freezer, and the one I baked is DELICIOUS.

I can buy fresh rice noodles for $1.59 down the street from my apartment, which explains why I just made enough pad see ew to feed a small army.

Whooo, Copenhagen! Because I fall at sleeping on flights, I was awake for over 27 hours. I went to bed at 9-ish, local time, and woke up around 6:30AM, what the hell, body?
Today was my day to try and get my body clock acclimated to this time zone, so I went and did touristy things. I went to the aquarium and saw otters, and watched sharks being fed! And then I went to one of the local museums, saw a whole bunch of amazing art, saw even more amazing sculpture, sat down for a while in front of a statue of Anubis (I wanted to rest my feet for a few minutes, and the bench was very conviently placed), and climbed approximately a gazillion stairs.
