Oh man -

91 outside, 86 inside and I fell asleep wearing jeans and a sweater. Baka.

Nothing done except not moving - literally.

Piano man was here this morning and gutted the piano to work on the action in his shop - it'll take a month. It can take longer - I need time to collect the funds.

Neighbors have put up a for sale sign. *sigh* Well, the owner is getting old, the grandchildren are outgrowing the space...but damn if they weren't good neighbors.

The beat goes on. I'll be watering the yards in the dark tonight, I can tell already.

Hot and stinky. What was that shower I took this morning good for? Blech.

Oh, and I started defragging Godzilla this morning (formerly the Good Machine) - it's been working on it all day and is still less than 10% done. I'm on good old Legacy - slow but sure.

Drive-by snark -

Is it me, getting hardening of the tolerances, or does this kind of hit you off-kilter as well?

Situation:

Recipe swap community. I cook, you cook and we all tell.

Some young thing (read=under 21) wants to make vegan fudgecicles and wants a recipe - so she can feed her daughter "something healthy."

Okay. Lady, have you ever tasted a vegan fudgecicle? Would you be willing to put a little effort into finding out just how narsty that would be? Would you like a quick lesson in why commercial fudgecicles taste the way they do? You won't be able to pronounce a lot of the words, but the xanthan gum comes from kelp, would that work for you?

Hon, go freeze a box of chocolate soy milk and try that - but please, taste it yourself first before you make the kid eat it?

I loved my late husband. I never made him eat any of the weird-ass shit they wanted to feed the diabetic without trying it myself. Glucerna can go to freaking, fucking hell. BAH. Normal people can't eat that stuff - it's disgusting. I don't make stupid shit for people I love - which reminds me.

If I want to make chicken curry tonight, I can - because I love it and Jim doesn't. And he's working tonight.

I would never make Jim eat something he hated. I love him.

Vegan fudgecicles. BAH!
