05 January 2008

3-point Saturday update [More:]
1. My hand blender appears to be borked, so the roasted cauliflower soup I made earlier remains unfinished. It may end up being a stew instead.

2. The Aston Villa v Manchester United match that's on TV at the minute is a terrible game of football, although as I type Ronaldo has just scored. w00t!

3. I just had roast chicken with stir-fried peppers, courgettes, carrots and chard for dinner. I have raspberries later. It seems odd being able to buy summer berries all year round, they aren't such a treat any more.
1. Could not get up this morning so stayed in bed until 2pm. Then did the shopping for the weekend and enjoyed the unseasonably warm weather.

2. Must clean house top to bottom. Ugh. Maybe I can hire it out.

3. Recording some Gram Norton for a friend who hasn't a TV. BBC America programming is often worlds better than American TV. IMHO.

1. I have a headache. (I don't get headaches very often and find them very annoying when they show up.)

2. I have a bunch of laundry that I need to do but I don't feel like doing it.

3. I need to figure out what to have for dinner.

1.Went to spin class this morning. Worked my butt off.
2. I'm doing a favor for a pastor friend of mine-he is teaching a class on the book of Romans and I'm typing out his class notes for him. Fun times.
3. I'm having hot dogs for dinner, I think, which really doesn't help my plan to lose weight, but see #1.

1. Today has been GREAT.
2. Went back to the gym for the first time since... long before Christmas. Felt good to get back into exercise.
3. Now, must get ready for Epiphany party at church.

1. Have a cold, or more probably, a sinus infection. Ick.
2. Should tidy up, but absolutely will not.
3. Just remembered we have leftover vegetable stew in the freezer, so I needn't make dinner. Yay!

1. Have been away from MetaChat for over two weeks. What have I missed, besides you all?

2. Cleaned the whole house today, including refinishing the wood floors and taking down all the outdoor holiday decorations. Mrs. tr33 is gone with friends to Chicago for the weekend, so am happy to have some alone time to take care of things and play Wii until the wee hours.

3. Currently enjoying a glass of cab and pondering dinner - thinking pizza, since it's easy and I'm beat. Dog seems to think this is a good idea.

1. Should go to bed but I won't. I want to finish this translation first.

3. After I finish this sentence, I'm gonna make myself a nice cup of tea.

1. worked out w/ kettlebells today
2. feeling like an asshole for posting the link to VHEMT and like I need to clarify to people who are pregnant here that it wasn't meant to be a slap in their face, I do hope none were offended, as it was not intended.
3. cat on lap, game on, dinner in oven

on preview, hi tr33! and feel better JanetLand.

1. Well, she'd definitely in heat, and the doctor's appointment is over two weeks away.
Personally, i think she's being really good about it. i've been around other cats in heat and they are horrifying. Besides two loud meows at night (not usually that vocal), wanting to hang out in the sink a bit more, and wanting to hang on my shoulders like i'm a six foot linebacker more (cramps, i assume), there's not much of a difference. She's dealing with it a lot better than most of the women around these parts.
i made her an ice bath in her bucket and put it in the bathtub. i'm about to light a candle and let her have some bath time.
i wish i could make her a bloody mary or something, as she think red wine smells like something that needs to be covered. i think should make more ice

2. because i don't want to masturbate her.

3. i have some mild bug of some sort so we've spent much of Caturday napping.

Happy Caturday!

1. Joining others on the cathartic-cleaning binge. Today, tackled some downstairs boxes and began making big to-the-dump piles and eBay piles. Also cleaned the utility closet, but did not attempt to go through boxes of letters, clips, and postcards from this year yet - too big a job.
2. Full belly - chicken tikka masala.
3. Must. Get. To. Gym.

1. Early part of the day was spent on the finding-parents-an-apartment front.

2. Got together in the afternoon with a few people to work out and play a little music.

3. Drove a long way home in the rain. Made a moderately successful pilaf. Am currently flopped out on the floor with dog on dog bed in front of heater.

1. Buffalo Metafilter meetup!

2. Got lost going to roller derby, which was SRO when we did get there.

3. Went thrift store shopping instead and scored some stuff.

1. i think she just came on the sheets from belly rubs.
2. i'm confused; is this female ejaculate? It's odorless and almost dry.
3. i don't know what to think. Will she be okay now? Is this some alternative cat masturbation thing i don't know about?

1. I'm totally better from being sick last week! Better enough that I went to the gym today!!

2. I'm about to get into the bed and start the NYT puzzle.

3. I'm a little dealing with the money loss from Christmas -- just the little extras and a short trip to Mendo$ino put me in the red.
