Merble. (Miscellanea.)

Yay painkillers. Yay taking painkillers, going to bed while one's badly strained muscles are relaxing, and waking up with only a mild twinge and it no longer hurting to breathe.

I had strange dreams. I find it somewhat entertaining, though, that I'm having pseudo-lucid dreaming -- as in, when I'm in dreams I am occasionally taking into account the fact I can fly in dreams as part of my planning for ops.

I also had this conversation with brooksmoses at the conclusion of our phone call last night.

I will think small incoherent lascivious thoughts. I'm too incoherent to think coherent ones.
I'm incoherent enough that I think morecivious is a good pun.
But one xiphias is enough!
Well, yes, but one doesn't really want less of him either....
True.

We're eating more beets!

I've had that damn Doonesbury line stuck in my head for a couple of weeks.

keshwyn, I have your turnip.

teinedreugan and I went to the grocery to get supplies for making dinner this weekend, 'cause I need to start the marinating tomorrow. I wanted to get the supplies for everything, but the only beet in the grocery was a poor tiny wee thing that was hiding in the lettuce, and that's not enough for beets.

No celeriac. Though teinedreugan thinks the current assortment of vegetables may be the largest variety we've ever had in the house.

Today's irony: I'm looking for cooking wine for making a roast in cream sauce, traditionally prepared with bacon fat. (Which tradition I shall be modifying.) The only cooking wine in the store that I can find . . . is kosher.

One look . . . could kill . . . .

autumnesquirrel just wrote to me to inform me that she had just watched the Muppets episode with Alice Cooper in, and that she has come to the conclusion that I look like Alice Cooper.

This will require eye makeup to test. Hey erispope, got any good suggestions? ;)

And I'm posting mostly because right after I explained this to oneironaut, well, the changer pulled a usual.
