Wasabi peas !-- Kitty Treats: rinse, repeat
Today being payday I stopped at CVS to buy another prepaid phone card. At the counter they had tempting looking bags of "Asian Blend Trail Mix" which contain those sesame sticks and nuts and those little crackers that look like cherry blossoms - and wasabi peas. Now, wasabi peas and me do not always agree, b/c I cannot handle too much hot, but I figured they were diluted enough in the rest of the mix that it would be okay. At least with soda or something. And it was, and they are, and it goes pretty well with Blue Moon Belgian Wheat to make the multicultural mess complete. (I can usually make a sixpack last a week, unless it's really hot. Alas, it is supposed to be very hot the next few days so I doubt this one will last until next payday...)
The problem that I did not anticipate, and perhaps should have, is that the bag is the same general shape and size as the kitty tooth-cleaning treats I get, and made of the same crinkle-quality of plastic.
This has made tonight rather interesting for both of us.
Also, I am almost, tho' not quite, finished rebuilding Odd Lots & related subdomains on flyingship.net. Links are nearly all relinked, borked code is nearly all wrangled into something less idiosyncratic, files are nearly all there. Not quite, but it's down to a visible end in sight (resisting urge to try to make stupid site/sight pun) and I still have to say that if you are looking for an inexpensive, fandom-friendly, easy-to-use, reliable host you could do far, far worse than to go with HawkHost.com (out of Canada with servers across the US too.)
And if you haven't seen it, Stephen Hawking enters the fray, PWN3Z the wingnuts in person. The internets: bringing you instakarma since nobody was exactly paying attention but sometime in the relatively recent past...
