Re: Brontosaurus Lays an Egg
Thanks guys. I left work after two hours yesterday, which I feel a little guilty about, but I was totally blindsided by nausea and pain (yesterday was my first run-in with morning sickness, and I was NOT prepared). Driving on the highway while dry-heaving is not my idea of a good time. I went home, ...

Re: The Smells in My Kitchen
Is it over-rising on the counter? If you know the yeast is good, I'd try cutting the rise time down some. Sometimes I forget about my dough and it rises too much. It usually deflates a bit in the oven when that happens.

I agree, it sounds like the money would be welcome and helpful, but is not 100% NEEDED. As in, you can manage food, shelter, clothing, etc in your current situation (this is just my assumption). If you weren't able to meet those basic needs, then money becomes the front runner. "I need this mon...

Dear Body,
I'm sorry I quit working out and let a bit of the weight creep back on. I got the message on the scale this morning. Honest. I'm back on board.
Also, sorry for the bruise on the right shoulder. The AR-15 had less recoil than I was expecting, but it was enough.
