Well, It *Was* Friday Night

I am up to my usual shenanigans of reading professional literature & watching random weird stuff until way too late into the night again (like it’s different from any other night, no, not really). Must be time to go to the spa again. That seems to calm the compulsive monkey in my brain […]

Field Trip

Yesterday we went & capped the beer we made. Is very hoppy. I might sip a little off each one, I did after all help make it, but the thought of drinking more than a sip at a time is totally incomprehensible to me still. In the same way that I can […]

Spinning & Stuff

Started doing some spinning this weekend for the first time in a long time. I finished off my green roving from last Xmas & now I’m back to having to card the fleece I’ve had for a couple years now, cursing the cost of drum carders. On the upside, in the eventuality that […]

Beer’n'Stuff

We went & brewed beer this morning as part of a thing we’re doing for work (we’re naming it “Taxonomic Impediment”). Holy crap, brewing beer is fun. Need to find childcare so we can go back & cap in two weeks. Almost makes me wish I liked drinking beer. It’s all […]

Random Sunday Update

Random

Watching the muppets… Or I was until I just put the girls down.

Disingenuous

I had a post half written about the economy fuss when someone called wanting to see the house. We had one hour to get the house in showing condition so off we went, cleaning, wiping, vacuuming, dishes… As we were getting shoes on to go out & read in a nearby coffee shop, the […]

NOM & Stuff

Got the stroganoff started. There’s going to be lots of left overs. Holy cow, there’s a lot in that crock pot. Also got the plans laid out for the bread marathon that commences this evening. I need to make sammich bread for the week, & double the starter for tomorrow’s cheddar, chive, & potato bread. […]

Random Friday Evening Update

My hair is getting long again. I think it’s gone into the “too long” length. I don’t feel like cutting it either though. I do, just not enough to get around to getting the scissors & snipping until everything is even again.
Was kind of a rough week. Parts really sucked. […]

Administration

WTF?  Health Care News is some kind of fuxxored.
coldbeansoup’s post reminded me to look at my own free will astrology. Capricorn:
Writing in the magazine sub-TERRAIN, John More makes the following declaration: “Captains of industry, great generals, artists of genius, even politicians, are often just people who have discovered that alcohol can enable them to […]
