Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I could be wrong about the sugar thing. I'm looking at this 1593 cookbook, and there's sugar in a lot more usually-savory dishes than I'd remembered from recipes from that era. [link] Without measurements, though, it's hard to tell.

ita,you have to manage a lot of people. It looks she is one of them.You will need to remind her Wed, Friday and Sunday morning. Next nurse might be worse so just living with that and including the triple reminders to her might be something. Expecially if she can be texted. Sounds like you need to regularly call your neuro too to make sure you get your pain meds.

Oh good lord, I have had a load of towels sitting in the washer for an hour and a half but never started the cycle. It is to laugh.

Totally not right,but it sounds like your other choices may be worse.

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

I found that taking a couple months worth of records and identifying all the common misleading transactions with mint cleared it up going forwards pretty well.

Amy, it will take me some gumption getting upping to do that, because it is all she talks about that's not directly related to the medicine she's administering. She's aggressive, and I'm weak. Today is the fifth visit, and she's challenging me about not having followed up on anything yet.

Buying colloidal silver on the internet and self-administering by IV? Christ, why do I even need to tell her I'm not going to do that?

But I have to nut up to do something, so I'll square my shoulders for next week.

I have to assume the woman in this proposal video [link] wept the whole way through, because I don't know any of those people, and it made me cry.

The Elizabethans were rich and made no bones about showing it off.

I'm sure the vast majority of the Elizabethans, like the vast majority of the people of any era, were not rich.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Dillo knows what's up.

And I'm pretty sure no reminder would help that nurse, except one an hour before she needs to leave. And she should really stop pushing bullshit on you, for reals. I hope there is another nurse that works Sundays .

I filed my taxes today. Mine are still pretty straighforward, and it's gotten easier since I have nested labels by year for all my tax records in Gmail.

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

I sent her a test text, and managed to get in a "this is easier for me" before she could finish saying it didn't work for her once she called back. I don't care if she doesn't know how to text, she has a week to work out how to tell her phone has messages. If that doesn't work, plan B will be interesting. And if there are issues still stressing me in two weeks, I will try and get the gumption up to change things.

Too reminiscent of work life, where you can get criticised if you don't work out how to get colleagues to do their own jobs. What are the colleagues being criticised for, I wonder.

And my cable connection is haemorrhaging channels. Looks like I'll be downloading the normal block of Sy Fy shows I watch Mondays, if there are new eps. That station disappeared while I was watching it.

IO9 kvetching has reached the Activist Bitch Cabal point, with extra "I am much better for the community than those elitist ass-kissers with posting privileges" sauce.

I have nested labels by year for all my tax records in Gmail.

Emailed tax records? What sort of records?
