Vocational Rehabilitation paying was always kind of like that, Hec. Sad that that's the memory Matilda's college life brings back.But I got through it(and if I live to be 150 maybe it will even out, somewhat) and she will too.
Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I started my taxes, although I am not willing to dig up my mortgage info right now so that’s on pause, and I looked up the training I was thinking of doing tomorrow that is actually in a couple of weeks. So I have not actually *done* anything but I feel vaguely accomplished.
Yesterday, my mom had some fresh cilantro she wanted to use but she couldn’t find any of the recipes she remembered not having the cilantro they called for. We did eventually find one for a sweet potato and black bean chili that required hardly any substitutions and did include cilantro. It was really good, especially with the buttered cornbread we also threw together.
B.org is, of course, where I feel any chili or cilantro news might be appreciated.

That sounds really good!
It's snowing very lightly (started within the last hour), so I opted to DoorDash Indian food from the place that's just 2 miles away. I wouldn't have ordered if it were snowing hard, or if there was any accumulation, but it's pretty decent right now, and matar paneer just sounded so good. [edit] And I tipped extra well because of the weather.
