8917 - Monday

BHK took a what seems like a metric ton of our cucumbers and made an absolutely delicious pickle salad for dinner tonight. I grilled some veggie burgers and zucchini on the grill in some teriyaki sauce, and I'd say it was one of the tastiest meals we've had in a little while. I can't say enough about how much I enjoy eating food we grew right out back. Come winter, I guess all we'll be able to munch on is preserves and pickles - our own sort of dandelion wine, as BHK so charmingly puts it.

future pickles!


Newt and Pye were extra-bonus cuddly and sweet this morning... making even more difficult to get out of bed. Fortunately, they can be distracted by one another when I have to start getting dressed.

My body isn't nearly so creaky this morning, nor is my eye puffy at all. Still not sure what set those off yesterday... just summer heat and pollen, I'm guessing.

I finished Runaways - not bad, and I'll keep reading, but I have my doubts about the next story arc. I'm going to reserve judgement though... I've enjoyed it thus far (Also not a big fan of Joss Whedon.)

Last night I dreamt about playing some sort of game with monochrome plastic big rigs. Perhaps a combination of The Transformers movie and Treehouse?

via LooneyLabs - Cheese contains casein, a dairy protein which contains tiny opiate molecules called casomorphins, which are "remarkably like morphine" and pack about a tenth of morphine's opiate strength! (I also found it fascinating that cheese proved harder to give up, for people in this article , than ice cream, hamburgers, chicken, and even cigarettes.)

They are still cuddly. I snuck back in bed after you left for a snooze and they joined me and NEVER left! Eveytime I go into the bedroom to make the bed both of them give me squinky eyes and cause me to instant feel the "nap tug". Damn those fuzzy lumpkins!
