Floating around in hot springs does seem like an excellent treat for the hungover.

I hope the communal bad decisions made for fun times last night, lisah! Drink lots of glacier water and keep an eye out for elves.

Bread Pudding: if the serving size is 1/6 of the tray, why do the heating instructions tell you to cut it into 8 slices?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Open sing tonight. Nothing else on my agenda today.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Trickery and confusion!

I'm sad because movie times don't line up well with my massage time, and need to return a couple of things in between. Or maybe before, but the timing would be tight. If I really hustle, I could do The Big Short at 4:40, but really I want to see Spotlight, and that's 6:15. I guess I'll plan for that and see if I still feel up to it when the time comes.

Oh, thanks for the reminder, seeing a movie was a thing I was thinking about doing today! I should check times.

I should have seen so many movies this vacation! In the theater, I mean.

First showing at my nearest theater is 10:30, which is late enough that I could easily get caught up in doing something else and miss it. but maybe I can keep it in mind long enough to actually get there. I find movie schedules surprisingly awkward

Well, that was weird. I just got a call, when I picked up the voice on the other end said "speak Russian?" and I said no and then there was silence for a while and they hung up.

Looks like I'm gonna have to drive to swim today. Pool is closed due to chemical imbalance...shocker!!

Otoh, that'll put me back up near the stores I bailed on going to this morning, so I guess I'll hit them on the way back...

-t, have you tried Noosa Yoghurt's pumpkin? I'm not a pumpkin person, but DAMN it's good. We had testers of it at a race and it was so amazing and irresistible.

So I was Not Up To the movies, but in good news, on the way home, I was thinking what I really need is hot and sour soup, but I couldn't think of a Chinese place to go, so I was going to go to the Thai place for Tom kha gai, but when I got there, there's a Chinese place next door! So now I have hot and sour soup.
