stuff (and things)
Dec. 13th, 2010 03:32 pmI can't possibly be as caught up with work as I think I am. "Caught up" doesn't exist around here.
I spent the weekend not catching up with much of anything, except the fact that I needed new gloves. Of course since I was looking for gloves, I came home with mittens, but at least they're leather mittens so I can clear snow off things without getting my hands soaked.
After that I didn't go anywhere for the rest of the weekend, in favor of sleeping a lot and trying to get the upper hand over this cold I've still got. Since I didn't go anywhere else, including grocery shopping, I'm having a very odd concoction for lunch this week. It consists of Italian sausages, frozen spinach, a can of diced tomatoes, a bag of egg noodles and various herbs and such. If I'd had chicken broth it would've been soup; if I'd had other vegetables I would've used those; if I'd had enough milk and any eggs at all, it would've been quiche.
Oh well. I did get to see a very amusing football game. (That would be the Patriots beating up on the Bears, in the snow.)
I keep considering getting collars for the Hairy Beasts, just so I have something to hang a nametag on if they ever get out. Snip is microchipped, and I think I might get Lily microchipped next time she goes to the vet and leave it at that. Aside from all the other pro/con arguments, all the indoor-cat collars I've seen lately have bells on them, which is Right Out.
