We finally peeled the "coconut oil" label off the jar where we keep the bacon fat. It got too wet in the washing.
Joyce: And what did you do tonight? Dawn: Irritated Giles. I'm beginning to get why Buffy likes it so much.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Bacon fat goes in an old spaghetti sauce jar.
We are in the airport, praise Buddha. Family visits only get more fraught as we all age.

For once I thought ahead and saved the bacon grease so that I could use it instead of olive oil in this curry-cous-cous thing I do. But since I actually only buy bacon once in a while, that's a lot of planning on my part.

Our wings are not tired.
Bacon grease just goes in a coffee cup, where it stays a short time before landing on top of the dog food.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I went and saw Linda Holmes talk about her new book, and at the signing, I said, "You're my friend in my head" like the WORLD'S BIGGEST DORK. Oh well.

World's Biggest Dork is quite a title to hold. Well done! Also, I am sure she has heard far worse.
I have water! In the bathroom anyway. Kitchen fix will be tomorrow. House is a disaster area. Hopefully tomorrow will be more productive.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Okay there's a doggie daycare near us named Doggie Come Play, and I just can't.
Hec, one of my classes at TheAY-ter school was "falling." Fainting, tripping, getting shot from the front, getting shot from behind, getting shot with an arrow, getting knifed, etc., etc. We all thought it was hilarious, if rather more physical work than we'd thought. But that training has saved my bacon more than once, being the klutz that I am. I hope you're not too dinged up, and heal quickly.
Bacon! My mom had a set of brushed aluminum cannisters: flour, sugar, coffee, tea, plus salt, pepper, sugar and (drumroll) bacon. Perfect silver cylinders with letters in black, and fitted lids with black plastic knobs (except for the shakers--no knobs). 50s-60s kitsch, but hers were well used.

Jesse I bet that makes total sense to her. At least you recognize it's only in your head!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Jesse, I think the same thing about Linda Holmes.
Also, maybe the people who recognize the unfortunate names like BSDM don't want to be recognized. I had to hold my tongue about my boss's PWP meetings forever! I was pretty vocal at JC Penney about the toy scuzzi the vibrating beaver.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Aw, Jesse, she totally knows how that is! I bet you're her favorite now.
