@Aria said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:

@Auspice Right? And the thing that kills me is that every week, Monday is my worst day. I have at least four meetings every Monday, forever.

Meanwhile, I have literally nothing on Wednesdays. Pretty much ever.

Whyyyyyyyyyy?

way of the business world.

Monday - all the meetings
Tuesday - frantically catch up
Wednesday - ?????
Thursday - OMG WE NEED THIS LAST MINUTE
Friday - oh god how am I gonna get enough done to not feel lost on Mond- ooooh weekend

@Aria meetings on Mondays should be illegal, I swear.

I was in one from 9a-3p. Tomorrow's the same deal.

I'm now trying to decompress enough to get to my actual work and I just.... can't.

Lord, the air fryer makes chimichangas a revelation, though.

@Lotherio I was insistent. I wanted one in my old place (even less space) and just never got to it. But I'm excited by all the options.

We were given one by friends. It is fab!

I got mine as a Christmas gift from my brothers a couple years ago. It really is great for limited space.

@JinShei said in Interest in a Discworld game?:

That sounds reasonable. We've moved to looking at GURPS discworld, to see if that can be made as a Ares plugin, since it is designed to be discworldly! I can tell himself is looking at Ares since I can hear the code mumblings just to my side.

Edit: GURPS copyright seems to make it not easily transferable. Leaning more fate-wards

I hate GURPS anyway. >.> go go fate

(Also, some people really, really like it for doing eggs in a sort of Japanese soft-boiled style. I never really got into them that way so after experimenting for a bit I gave up, but your mileage may vary)

Hmmmm. Marinated eggs for ramen.... @Lotherio what do you think?

Sous vide is something I def wanna get into. When I have a bigger kitchen.

I wanna play the Death of Rats. >.>

@Wretched said in Food!:

I am using my dehydrator on some bacon tonight that has been marinated in soy sauce, brown sugar, black pepper and habanero powder to make spicy meat candy... will update tomorrow.

you're inviting me over to try it, right?

(Side note: BA's recipe for Mac & Cheese is pretty awesome and I make it a couple times a month.)

I'm thinking of using Ares, and their system.

I am working out how to do magic with it though. We may restrict to witches on the magic front, which is mostly herb and headology...

Anyone who isn't part of the City Watch is WRONG.

So... I shouldn't exclude them, then? But which stage of the watch are we set in?

That'd be up to you!

@Ganymede said in RL things I love:

The collectible female Autobots for my little Transformers loving daughter.

I just ordered Elita-1, Chromia, Moonracer, and Greenlight because Arcee is getting lonely.

I was JUST looking at those.
(I want Moonracer.)

When the sun is coming up but you just gotta get your beach on

@The-Sands What yogurt do you use as your 'base' for the yogurt?
Have you had any luck adding things (like vanilla) to it?

I only made yogurt once and it was hand-wiggle. But I'm debating trying again because it's my preferred breakfast.
