They are redoing the kitchen floor in my apartment. It was getting kinda crappy so I put in a request and I'm a great tenant so they're doing it.

They put down the tiles today and my message said to keep off it at least until the morning.

She made it sound like I might be upset about that but hell no, I'm like an 8 year-old playing the-floor-is-lava.


Good times is what.

So, decided on a blt for lunch today, local place that was recommended to me. They don't do pork products so options for bacon are turkey and tempeh which I had never heard of but online feedback looks good enough. I'm thinking mmmm bacon so I order extra bacon and go with the tempeh.

Result? Tempeh is dogshit and this eleven dollar sandwich is going in the trash.

Unreal.

I've been known to eat tempeh from time to time, but it is no substitute for bacon.

I had it in a Chef's Plate recipe - it was totally positioned as a bacon substitute.

I positioned it differently.

<---NOT bacon

Based on my experience an adequate substitute name could be bland tasting hashbrown like substance

 

[roguejuror]

but hey hash browns are good

one time I had a dream I was eating hash browns and teela

Yes, today has been May the 4th.

I get it: saying "May the 4th be with you," sounds a lot like, "May the force be with you," which is a catch phrase from a stupid but very popular movie franchise.

So yes, I guess in these times, that passes for clever. I get it. I got it the first time I heard it today and I got it the next 18.

Well done.


Now shut up.

And now today is Cinco de Mayo. Back to back days with stupid little stuff about them.

Wonderful time of year for smalltalk.

I bought my Mother a wind chime with dragonflies from a nice art gallery for Mother's Day.

I hope she likes it, or at least pretends to.

why is it that mothers only get one day and sharks get a whole week

Very good point, imo.

I hope she likes it, or at least pretends to.

I feel bad when a family member is visibly pretending to like a gift I made. Then I remember my own quota of pretend-likes as a giftee, and thee all the guilt is washed away.

We all suck at buying gifts.

I am giving my mother a delightful cat-based card and a chocolate rose.
