Today has been crazy productive, again. Went to the farm this morning and bought an ungodly amount of produce, including a dozen winter squashes and 20 lbs of pickling cucumbers. Went and met a friend and took the dogs to the island, ran 'em sore for hours while hiking up the beach. Got canning jars on my way home. Fixin' to make a raft of pickles.

So, I had a couple days of reprieve from this anxiety attack, and then it started up again at 3 this morning.

Brother called me from ComiCon at 11:30 last night and didn't leave a message. Dollars to doughnuts he was calling to ask for a ride. FFS my 13-year-old son is more self-sufficient.

25 lbs of pickling cucumbers is a lot of pickling cucumbers. I have 16 quarts of pickles so far, and 8 more to go. Trying to decide whether the last 8 should be vinegar or lactic acid, leaning toward lactic acid.

Nigel, you are so very Portland right now.

Cleaning adventures are finally bearing some fruit. On Tuesday the junk removal service is showing up and all the donate and bulky trash things are going away. Also, I designed what I believe to be a relatively original monster this morning (not for games, just my own amusement).

Portland does have a proud pickling heritage, including Mrs. Neusihin's and Steinfeld's. There were once dozens of small pickling companies here. I grew up on Grandpa's pickles. I don't know why it's a thing, but it's a thing.

Surgery on Wednesday. I'm looking forward to that being over.

Not looking forward to being awake while they poke around in my back.

Morning, Spags.  I am on today, as I am at work (on account of FA being to stupid to be trusted with payroll), but then I will mostly be absent until a week from today, as I have my son back for a time.

First day of school. Internet's being janky. My schedule's funky, I have class through lunchtime most days.  :|

Tuesdays, I have to say, are gonna kind of suck this term.

Plan to.

He's now about 240 pounds, at 6'5".  Eats 4000 calories a day.   :eek:

Not a spare ounce on him.   :argh!:

Ah, youth! Meanwhile I'm starving my ass off to lose 15 lbs. :lol: Although I recently researched a study on that, that said the innate changes in metabolism due to aging are negligible, our slowed metabolism is almost entirely due to becoming less active with age.

So my ass is fat because I'm old AND LAZY, not just because I'm old.  :horrormirth:

Yeah Tuesdays I have class something like noon to six. The rest of the days are much more reasonable.
