JenP! Hiya!
I've been loafing around eating oatmeal, but I need to get off my butt and go to the grocery store and then do some more yard work to make the backyard less of a hellscape while the weather is still nice.
Random: I hate all kinds of melon, right? It just tastes like it was made with artificial sweetener, to me, so I avoid melon. I had a dream last night that I was eating cut-up pieces of fruit, and I thought they were peaches because they were so sweet and yummy, and I asked what they were, and they were fucking MELON. And I felt so betrayed -- not by the person who gave me the melon, but by my own goddamn taste buds for deciding that melon was acceptable.
I am emphatically NOT going to buy a melon today to see if my dream was prophetic, because, seriously, fuck melon.
because, seriously, fuck melon.
No way, man! Honeydew and Prosciutto forever!
Hi JenP!
I thought I was the only person who hated melon!
I don't hate melon. But in fruit salad, it always seems like filler to bulk out other, tastier fruit.
I remember reading a dystopian short story about space colonists starving to death because the melons growing everywhere were taboo. Finally the protagonist tried one in desperation and didn't even die. I guess the author (was it Octavia Butler?) was in the Melon Haters Society.
I hate all melon except watermelon.
Jayzus, all the melon hate!
It's cool, sweet and delicious.
Hi, back, yay! I love watermelon, like honeydew, tolerate cantaloupe (but, apparently, don't know how to spell it, thank you, red squiggly), and can't think of another melon to end the list.
I got up earlier than I would have liked because my body has decided that it needs to make two fingers on my right hand numb, yet also painful (neat!) sometimes from something positional when I sleep. Sometimes. And I have to stand up pretty much to get it to stop. On the other hand (heh), fried eggs and bacon for breakfast, and I cleaned up the kitchen.
Meara- puppy is right, valerian smells AWFUL. It is known. I used to work with a guy who packed his weed in a valerian bottle to elude drug dogs, the stuff is so rank.
Unrelated, I also have issues with teeth grinding, and having dreams of chewing on something annoying and waking up with my mouth guard in the wrong place. After grinding through an expensive custom one, I switched over to these years ago and love them. I wear it upside down (over my lower teeth, instead of under the upper teeth as instructed) and one usually last me about a year....or until Malachi gets into the bathroom and chews it into pieces.
