I'm using this thing, Burrell [link] Gonna try using it to transfer some old VHS tapes after the DVR. When I think I'm gonna actually watch this stuff I have no idea. I hope the series you lost become available to you in a convenient manner, that sucks.
Whoa on the neighbor. Good that someone not you is dealing with it. Doesn't sound fun to have going on nearby. Sofa etc. sounds excellent!
The turnip and corned beef hash is not bad! Possibly evil, or wicked, that is, but tasty. I just used all the turnips I had and all the corned beef that was leftover from whenever I made corned beef (it's been in the freezer for quite some time) and I was concerned that the turnip:meat ratio would be too high, but it seems to be okay.
Went out to try to finally buy new winter boots. Alas, they didn't have my size in the model I wanted, but since I was able to check sizing on the brand...these [link] will be arriving soon. They'd better last at least 3 years- I've been forced to buy new boots every winter as they spring leaks. 3 years cost would equal these. Almost got the grey but said fuckit, these are for slogging out in nasty winter, I'm going for fucking bright and cheery. I'm trying to stray from utilitarian colors for utilitarian items.

Ooh, that sounds good. I should be making some hash, given the quantities of root veg currently in my house.
Timelies all!
Folks from our dance group threw us a "welcome baby" party. It was very nice, and we have a bunch of thank-you notes to write.
Yay for bright and cheery slogging boots!
Yay party!
I have been slacking on eating down my pantry and I need to stupid up. The hash is a good start.

That's the blood.
ION, I know you're not supposed to cut your own hair, but when the hair around my face gets on my last nerve, I grab the scissors. It's not getting in my eyes and clinging to my face anymore! I could never get away with this if I didn't have curly hair.
Dinner is pretty much done, now I just need to wait for my people to get here. Which means I really should just grade one more paper. Bleh. I hate grading.
Yay for welcome baby parties!
I have been making food for the week. I have kale salads ready for eatin' and I just made a big pot of spicy chickpea & Swiss chard curry.
