I don’t actually know where my guy is right now. He had to go to another continent for work and stop off in another city on the way home, and I was away for half the week visiting family. I’m home now, and he’s not, nor has he answered texts work or burner phone. Is he still overseas? On a plane? In another north…

I got into casseroles because then I can coast on leftovers for a couple days. (chickpea pot pie! Mock tuna casserole!) I’m also a big fan of wraps, tacos and burritos- I think the most important thing I’ve learned is to make enough filling for a couple days at a time, or do the prep for a few days at the same time…

Good luck! I also suddenly realized I didn’t know how to cook after I moved out. I watched a lot of cooking shows (especially one called “Fixing Dinner” but it’s not on the interweb anywhere.) Getting dinner together is such a slog.

omg, that’s horrifying. diflucan forever! My doc writes me a scrip any time I have to take an antibiotic, just in case it leads to yeast bloom.

I love rice vinegar! I started making bento box recipes for lunch and there’s a lot of rice vinegar action. http://justbento.com/recipes

I’ll miss SNS if Jez sinks, but I remind myself there’ll be appeals. But also as someone against revenge porn, so I don’t think people’s sex tapes are fair game to post.

I made the mistake of using the single suppository once- I thought I was going to go insane or scratch my entire groin off or both. Now I only take the oral pill, thankuverymuch. Argh, they are the WORST

I watched the doc “In Search of General Tso” and became obsessed with making this recipe. For omnivores, sub chicken for the tofu. I usually use chickpeas. The sauce is good, sticky and sweet :)

I love Thug Kitchen for sauces, and I also get a lot of ideas from Vegetarian Times (my partner isn’t veg, so we use the same sauce and cook our protein separately. Usually though, I just type my ingredients into google and pick from the recipes that pop up.

Yay you! If I have any advice, it’s cross train!!!!! The “what hurts?” section over at Runners World gives reasonable advice if your feet or knees or whatever start hurting. I am a huge fan of physio for pain- if you go early and do the exercises, it won’t take more than 2- 4 visits to get things back to normal…

On the one hand I really love Vikings, but on the other hand I’m a wimp about on-screen gore, so I couldn’t stick with it.

This is why I decided not to have kids. I had this epiphany while I was pregnant that I would be doing 80% of it, and I’d have to organize him to do the other 10%, and that my time, work and fun would never be given the same priority as his, so when I had the miscarriage, I just couldn’t face getting pregnant again.

I’m such a teacher, I saw BLM and thought “black line masters?”

It was the dogwhistle that she’s not one of those man-hating feminazis, therefore deserves support.

I had a miscarriage during the last presidential campaign, and it made all the crap the Repugnantcans said about abortion and pregnancy that much more personal, so I feel you. Internet hugs.

Can we discuss these rules? Oh, what, rule 1 & 2? Ok.

My greatest shame: sometimes I listen to Ddub’s backrub on the youtube. I deserve your judgement.

You’re assuming his capable of polishing up his image for the length of a campaign.

I LOVED that movie.

Wouldn’t his DNA be all over the old shower curtain? I feel like buying a new curtain with cash would be a better route.
