Late night last night after going to the Fucked Up concert at Masquerade. Starting my sleepy morning at the Waschsalon, wondering if I will get around to doing my German homework or even be able to stay awake to go to class tonight…
Tuesday Tale of the Tape: 208.4 pounds (-0.6 from last week’s weigh-in); yay camping! 😉
Good show. I believe that is the first time I’ve worn earplugs to a concert. Thanks Paulie for helping me preserve (what’s left of) my hearing 🙂.
I lost 0.5 pounds on the camping trip too, however that only brings me down to 136, a pound ABOVE where I started ☹ï¸. But again, no surprise…
The earplugs muddle the middle range but because I knew that I’d never be able to understand any of the lyrics I knew it wouldn’t matter that much. 😉
Speaking of hearing, my earphones are already on because I ca hear my cube neighbor’s “music†that sounds like the buzzing of mosquitoes to me…
We ended up having a impromptu Tasty China dinner out with a couple Chattahooligans last night – they were in the mood for some good Chinese, and it worked out well, since Allan had some wheels finished for 1 of them.
We heard a big thump last night, a tree came down, but not in our yard. Not sure where, it was dark & rainy, so Allan will go exploring later this morning.
Very cool on the Tasty China, been a long time for me.
Too bad about the tree, glad it didn’t come down in your property.
My planned ride of the motorcycle was obviously aborted yesterday. I did install the windshield and attempted to attach the crash bars, but was unable to figure out how. More research…
I attempted to cook dinner last night, but decided to get fancy and slice carrots with a mandolin. What I sliced was the index finger on my left (writing) hand! Debbie took over after bandaging me up. Hard to do things today… like type! Other than the loss of blood, dinner was tasty.

I’m guessing you chose not to use the safety puck with your mandolin? Glad you didn’t do more damage.
I always think- I need one of those mandolin things. Then, I hear a story like this, and I think, I’m better off not having 1. I know I will draw blood more often than not.
(just yesterday I saw a recipe that needs thinly sliced potatoes -and I thought about going to buy one)
I grabbed it out of the drawer and ignored the puck. I was end slicing, but the carrots were not cooperating. Then I said a bad word… actually, several.
Not that you can’t do the same thing with a sharp knife, I’m living proof.
I have chopped my fingers up plenty with just a knife, that’s why I’m afraid of a mandolin.
Been snacking on leftovers from a big company meeting (that I am not in) all afternoon. Guess it’s “no dinner†for me tonight.
Tell ya what, to make you feel better, I’ll open the bag of Spicy Sweet Chili Doritos that didn’t get eaten at the campout and snack on those 😉.
Haha! In the Waschsalon’s vending machine I saw Tapatio hot sauce flavored Doritos. I nearly bought them.
As I drove home from the race Sunday, I splurged on a bag of Cheddar Cheese Ruffles. Those are crack, as far as I’m concerned.
Well, I inadvertently lied as I just ate a plate of nachos. If I can get my check I will attempt to get at least 45 minutes of walking in this shitty weather prior to German class.
