I woke up with a headache. I took a pain killer but the headache never went away. I still have a headache.
Complaint: So pleased that my new eyes don't require me to wear glasses at home. Unfortunately, a couple days ago I heated a half bowl of thick clam chowder in the microwave. It was covered but when I took it out of the microwave and lifted the cover from the bowl it boiled explosively into my chest and face!
Burn, burn burn. (Ouchy and temporary panic!). Luckily nothing went into my eyes but I now have many painful quarter inch diameter red burned spots on my face and neck and a shirt that needs loving laundry care.
Mmmm... Potato Fudge.
Little Suzy: "Where does Potato Fudge come from daddy?"
Daddy: "Well, that's a great question Suzy... Potato Fudge comes from frightened potatoes... And thanks to the wonders of the Atomic Age and specially irradiated strains of tubers, Kraft has perfected a method of frightening vast quantities of fudge out of these mutant potatoes... So you and all the children of the world can enjoy the great taste and nutritional benefits of Potato Fudge!
Little Suzy: "Wow daddy, that's swell!"
Daddy: "And now there's Butterscotch Potato Fudge... With added Vitamin F... The FUN vitamin!"
Little Suzy: "Wow! It glows in the dark!"
Ouch...
Well... Better the chest and face then the eyeballs... Chests and faces can grow back, eyeballs don't.
Right?
Something like that...?
If it blistered, try a burn cream with "silver solution"... Years ago I had a pretty bad burn on my face from an explosion and even though a lot of the skin peeled off, the areas that were treated with a burn cream with silver didn't scar.
Dollar Tree hair dye... Hmmm.... Two steps above Dollar Tree semi-refrigerated Shrimp...
Really... They occasionally have shrimp in the ones around here.
(In a Homer Simpson voice)... Mmmmmm... Dollar shrimp... Mmmmm....
Is just one ear dyed?... You might start a trend if you do it up right... Just own it real good and people will think it's something cool... Unless it's just the tip or something... Then again you could play it up like its a Pokemon thing... Pikachu has black tipped ears... Right?
Or just dye the other one for symmetry.
Or get plastic Elf/Vulcan ears and wear those until the dye fades... It's Halloween, so that may work... And you can play the elf angle like its getting into the holiday season early if the dye takes longer to fade.
Heh-heh-heh!
Ah... The classics.
I want to chat with my webhosting company not call them. My headache is mostly gone but I do not feel like talking on the phone. I am having difficulty finding a method to chat with them. If I cannot figure it out tonight I guess I will have to call them tomorrow.
...man eating Koalas...you mean Drop Bears?
As I don't have any children maybe the baby eating dingo region won't be so bad.
...water water from the sky
Will get me wet if I should try
To go to market to buy some pie.
So I think I'll just stay home and cry.
Ah, Australia. The land where you can buy opals in the 7/11. I kid you not.
Displayed neatly on a free standing rotating wire rack. Packaged in plastic bubbles on cardboard. Oy!
Is it bedtime yet? I do not want to go to bed, but I also cannot stay up all night because I go to work tomorrow.
But...ewwwwww!

Where is the dang sun?... Been up for two hours and it ain't showed yet...
Maybe it's just cloudy this morning... This is why I'm no big fan of autumn...
The leaves may look pretty for a few weeks, but then you have to collect them and give them a mass funeral with the mulcher... The air no longer smells fresh, more like wet dead leaves and forest muck... The few remaining crickets sound pathetic and dying (though there is one with a tiny electric guitar that I have to say is really not giving up like the rest)... It's spelled autumn, but almost nobody pronounces that "n", so even that's a waste... There is too much darkness, which while it's great for sneaking up on possums in, is just annoying if you drop something in the damp leafy grass... It's that confused humid-stale kinda cool... Not cold, not warm enough... The birds have stopped singing and have all flown back to their condos in Florida and North Carolina...
Bleah... Stupid Awtum...
Halloween should be moved to August... It would be way scarier in the summer and more fun too...
I suppose with global warming, eventually there won't be much of an awtum (that's how I'm spelling it now) anymore and up north we'll start having palm trees wherever it's not submerged... Well... Whatever.
I'll just deal with it.
No pumpkins then. And no Pumpkin Fudge™.
only time of year to get a Frapula Frappucino
Okay... Keep Halloween in October...
I suppose Oktoberfest wouldn't make any sense in June...
When is Lobsterfest? Was that a holiday too? Red Lobster doesn't seem to be as popular and powerful as they used to be, so maybe Lobsterfest was replaced by a more popular holiday....
I'm gonna make an admission... I'm not a fan of pumpkin spice, pumpkin coffee and pumpkin flavored whatnots...
Less a fan of Starbucks too...
I bet that has made me a pariah... Or more of a pariah... Right up there with bunny punchers and puppy chuckers.
I like pumpkin pie... Just I'd never go and dunk a slice in my coffee, so I don't really want my coffee to taste like I did... Bacon maybe, but not pumpkin pie.
I used to like Gloria Jean's coffee, but I guess they went out of business... What I liked was they sold different coffees (Kenyan AA, Kona, Jamaican Blue Mountain, Civit Cat... Okay, maybe not Civit cat...they were probably just pooped out by guinea pigs)... Not just different flavored concoctions that you are expected to know all about when you go to order... I tried that twice... The not being an expert and knowing exactly what everything meant thing, that is... The people behind the counter got confused, the people around me got annoyed and the coffee I got didn't make me feel fulfilled like I think it did for everyone else there... I go with my wife and daughters sometimes... they love it, but it seems too cultish to me... If I were going to join a beverage based cult, it would have to have more mention of stout and bacon.
Even beers are getting annoying with the pumpkin spice... And with most pumpkin things, it's really only the nutmeg you are tasting anyway...
I think it was like year ago, a friend told us she bought some natural pumpkin spice toothpaste... I think that's a bit odd... Isn't part of the point of brushing your teeth to not have your breath smell like you were just eating?
Seriously... Pumpkin fudge makes way more sense.
I wonder if nutmeg is mildly addictive?... The next big nutmeg push is eggnog at Christmas... I think it's the nutmeg cartels... They are trying to get us all addicted to their fragrant spice.
Mark my words... It'll find away into Valentine's Day and then Easter... Fourth of July... Summer BBQs... Next you know we'll all be nutmeg junkies.
Frank Herbert warned us about it in Dune... It won't sound so crazy when you are running from a giant spice crazed sandworm.
I don't think I should get up at 4 am anymore... Stuff seems too clearly surreal.
thanks. the bytes sample looks promising. i'll give it a try.
cheers!
Ooh, eggnog. (*said in my best Homer Simpson voice*) I saw some in the grocery store yesterday. Was tempted.... but resisted.
See...see... It's an addiction!
Wednesday complaint: Cars are expensive.
Took the car in for inspection and it passed but he pointed out that my front tires should be replaced. Especially since winter is coming. so I took the car to my local mechanic to replace the tires ($230) and while he was at it I had him do a careful look at the undercarriage. He found what I suspected, that it's rusting out in places. Unfortunately worse than I had thought. Now I have to think about getting some bodywork done too. ($$$) ![crying crying](http://www.daz3d.com/forums/plugins/ckeditor/js/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/cry_smile.png)
Admittedly the car is 13 years old but looks brand new when sitting in it and feels brand new when driving it. And it gets 30mpg on the Interstate. But like me its foundation is rotting. Big beautiful luxurious Buick LeSabre Custom w/leather seats (*sigh*) Made back when cars were still made to fit human beings semi-properly, no shoehorns necessary. I'd hate to lose it. If I would even be able to afford a replacement it would be an 8 year old tiny tin can with hammock seats and still only get 30 mpg.![frown frown](http://www.daz3d.com/forums/plugins/ckeditor/js/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/confused_smile.png)
Good old fashioned British baked rice pudding, with nutmeg sprinkled on the top, Heaven on a cold autumn or winter night, and if it's anything like our house used to be you should see the kids fight about who got the most skin off the top with all the nutmeg in it. http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/25386/good-old-fashioned-baked-rice-pudding.aspx
I would love that, but the carbs in rice converting to sugar in seconds in my body + the sugar in that dish = diabetic coma. Rice is a worse source of carbs for me than potatoes, I don't know why.![crying crying](http://www.daz3d.com/forums/plugins/ckeditor/js/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/cry_smile.png)
I feel really sorry for all my diabetic friends, I really do.
All this is just fueling my nutmeg suspicions... Well, except the part about the Buick rusting out... But I'm gonna see if I can work that in too... You never know, the nutmeg cartel has their irons in a lot of pies... Er... Hands in a lot of fires... Eh... I hate old sayings...

I'se stuck again. y'know how when you divide sometimes there a remainder?
dunno how to programmily separate the numbers either side of the decimal. something about a quotient
Dana
You're very welcome!

Try brown rice...you can not really tell the difference when it's in a recipe, and it's considerably better for you than white rice.
