@mietze I’m in that area too. It’s so unnatural feeling. I miss rain like crazy. Everything is dirt colored and dirty feeling and sad.

@mietze I’m sufferin’ right along with you up here.
This is complete shit.

@Pavel there is always room for a good Malcolm Tucker bollocking.

The kittens ended up having ringworm, and for various sucky reasons (including husband coming down with shingles) we had to take them to another foster who doesn’t have those same struggles.
I’m devastated. I also don’t feel like I can show it much because a) it was a no brainer to send them to someone else, and b) husband is in pain from this thing.
So I just feel horrible but got to keep it quiet.

@junipersky ug i’m sorry.

For various reasons, I am unable to eat anything. Drinking milk is as close as I get to meals. That’s not my peeve.
My peeve is, as I sit here regarding the jug of chocolate milk near to hand, why is there not a pumpkin spice milk? It’s gotta be possible, and I know it would sell.

@GF Also, google pumpkin spice syrup.

@GF That sounds like you want chai latte without the black tea, right? If spice is ok with your food limitations, here’s a rough recipe:
Get a pot and toast cardamom pods, whole cloves, ground nutmeg and a cinnamon stick over medium-high heat until it starts smelling really nice, usually 1-2 minutes. Add in a half inch piece of finely sliced raw ginger and a cup of water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, lower the heat to a simmer and cook for about five-ten minutes, depending on how strong you want it.
Optional: black peppercorn (omitted in case that’s too spicy for you) and star anise (I don’t like it myself). Basically think flavors you like in chai tea or gingerbread cookies etc. You can also totally use ground spices if you don’t have whole ones, just be careful they don’t burn when toasting.
Add two cups of milk (and optional vanilla essence) and lightly simmer for five minutes. Remove from heat and strain through a strainer into two mugs.
You can also use this to make really delicious spiced hot cocoa, I do that a lot in holiday season.

Sounds like a good recipe and I’ll try it, but nah, I was just being disgruntled that I can drive two miles to a grocery store that sells chocolate milk, strawberry milk, banana milk, orange creamsicle milk, cookies n cream milk, root beer milk, and cotton candy milk, but I can’t get pumpkin spice milk except by combining a gallon milk with a box of pumpkin spice Cheerios. Like, fine, I know liking pumpkin spice probably makes me a basic bitch or whatever, but this basic bitch wants a jug of pumpkin spice milk to soothe the gurgles in her tummy!

Sorry, I’ve been tinkering with the plugins and accidentally turned on smellofora.

@GF I know I’m like a week late to replying to this, but my kid is a crazy fan of pumpkin spice. I’ve been putting a splash of pumpkin spice coffee creamer into his milk instead of chocolate syrup. That recipe with the spices and milk sounds amazing, but so often I need something that takes 5 seconds instead of 5-10 minutes.

Meeting someone nice and pulling a red flag not long after, and being right about it even though friends/family make me doubt a warning system that has a pretty decent track record.
And then meet a new person who doesn’t pull a red flag and I don’t know how to act around them and wind up being a flailing awkward batch of dumb.
There is no in between.

Throwing out the last few pieces of week-old sliced bread, discovering they still haven’t grown any mold, and wondering what the hell I’ve been putting in my body.

Being told to do the wrong thing by bosses, explaining that it is the wrong thing, and being told that I am wrong and that I should do it their way. Despite multiple people with decades of experience in the field telling me that I’m doing it the right way.
Oh well. Not my name on the documents the courts will be reading.

Fucking. Hayfever.
