Jesse, did I submit a Batman link to the goodstuff tumblr?

OH MY GOD PRIDE BATMAN.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And ita's was even a different Batman!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Texture is why I don't like macadamia or Brazil nuts. But I like walnuts or almonds in most things. Cashews and pecans are hit or miss depending on the item. I avoid pine nuts since the dreaded pine nut mouth incident.

Wallybee and her parents have occasionally unearthed bags of pecans still in the shell. They're a bugger to pry out the edible bits, but so worth the effort.

I go for cashews, pecans and macadamias. The last item, of course, is a patriotic measure, macadamia nuts being the only native Australian crop of any wide commercial significance.

A whole OTHER Batman? This is the best day ever!

Shit, WTF, it's saying my queue is empty and ita's post didn't go up. Harrumph. Can either of us find it again?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

We used to have a pecan tree in the backyard.

I am surprisingly conservative about choclate chips. I don't like them in cake, brownies or icecream. (chocolate chunks in ice cream OTOH)

Raisins have ruined the oatmeal cookie.

Speak to me Tom!

I don't like raisins in much or anything.

I love walnuts, pine nuts, pecans. Peanuts are good, but they do not love me.

I have been in the dumps all week. I am discontented with everything: home, work, lack of social life, blah. But it's kind of one of those doldrums that's self-sabotaging. I should have gone out tonight but I bailed. And an invitation to the country this weekend, which would cheer me up, is just stressing me out. I need a happy kick in the pants.

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

I still had the link open, which was why I asked. I couldn't remember if I'd followed through and submitted in the first place. Let me resubmit.

Man, I feel under the weather. Why am I sick all the time? The doctor asked me if it could be ulcers--was I having hard times? HAR. But do ulcers or indigestion give you a fever?

We have five immense pecan trees in the backyard. The squirrel mafia grabs all the nuts, though.
