Yeah, it looked good, and easy. I'm crazy busy now, so not eating at home enough to justify it. But I sent it to my dad to try out.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And then when I pass him when I'm by myself, and not with K, he'll look right at me and there's not even a glimmer of recognition.

Oh yeah. I knew a particularly egregious example of That Guy in and after college. We had friends in common in school, so met several times then. He never remembered me. Then after, he was dating my best friend's roommate, and still no. We had breakfast together more than once, and I was brand new to him every time. @@

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

and a Swarovski crystal embedded in the beak.
Ouch?

But I love the idea that the littlest krav instructor is getting such a useful going away gift.

She's so lucky to be growing up around us.
She really is.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The crystal is an odd sex toy choice. But it was so cute!

I should cook at home more. I'm having a guest over to dinner tomorrow, and that's what I'll serve. I have the perfect out if it's not tasty! It's been especially a long time since I served a vaguely balanced meal. I'm even going to cook greenstuff (pan-roasted asparagus & mushrooms). Hopefully this signals the return of my appetite.

Okay, the custard for the ice cream is cooling. I'm not sure why it took me so long to realize that bread pudding, egg nog, and 'proper' ice cream are all the same thing. Bake it, freeze it, drink it...it's egg custard. With hopefully little actual egg taste. And then cheesecake is egg custard with cheese, and quiche is savoury egg custard...it goes on and on.

My National Geographic DNA testing thingy is at the DNA isolation stage. I'm not precisely sure what that means, other than I can track it on the web now. I wonder if there's any way I could steal DNA from one of my mother's brothers. So we could have the matrilineal and the other thing tested on her side. And then my dad could have both tests run on his DNA.

Okay, maybe a little lie-down before the bread pudding.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm assuming that hardwood floor help insulate me against bedbugs

Nope, they can live between the floor boards in cracks and stuff.

I thought they lived in, you know, beds...

And the bread pudding is in! Someone needs to come over and reward me for all my hard work. I'm thinking something along the lines of peeled grapes.
