Okay. Still no plot for the story with no plot, so on tonight's agenda: chicken curry w/ basmati rice. There's likely to be plenty to go around, since I'm the only one in my house who likes spicy food (so far, anyway!)

Mmm, I already had an omelette, but I think I have room for some spicy food! *nom nom* Maybe the curry will spark a good plot?

One can always hope. And if it doesn't, well, I've got a tummy full of hot curry. Can't really lose, right?

Kettle's on too, for those who aren't big fans of curry. (-:

God morning Spiral

We(husbands)don't hear the alarm as soon as y'all(wifes)do Spiral. That's the same sound level as a baby crying at 2:30 am, we just don't hear that neither....or at least don't let mom's know we hear it.

Hey, so, welcome to the pub an' all. If you'd like to participate, please feel free to come out from behind the nonsequitur quips and interact. If you're just trying to up your post count -- well, you could do worse than actually become part of the community along the way.

-Suzanne, well-intentioned.

Packing for a mini-vacation, doing all homework before mini-vacation, trying to get my actual work down, AND trying to find some time to write...I needs a pick-me-up!
