Made pizza last night, forgot how damn good home made pizza is. Need to become a millionaire and quit my job so I have time to make dough every day.

Picking up a new front door for the Casa this afternoon, and hopefully finishing my drywall patches and spraying texture tonight.

Annual rheumatology check up today. Waiting area for blood draw looks more like a methadone clinic.

Roquefort is delicious

You all should acquire and consume some

I need to do a head-to-head with Roquefort and Stilton blue... I sure do love me some stinky cheese.

two fridays ago i made a pizza with figs, shiitake mushrooms, prosciutto, and grueyere.

last friday i used smoke gruyere instead of regular gruyere and it was a bigger improvement than i was expecting.

You do realize that gruyere is *not* the same as roquefort, right?

Recently had lab work done. One intake question was 'Have you ever identified as a gender other than what is indicated on file today?'... followed by a 'I'm required to ask this...'
I could only laugh out loud.

oh shit, you walked into a cryptocurrency convention

Stop in at the country club for drink??

I'd rather go to North Platte.

Though, I'll confess I thought about volunteering just for Pizza in Trinidad on the company dime.

Won't lie... kinda wanna go to Trinidad for pizza now.

 

[Muddy]

why?

Why? Because this was strictly a lab for outpatient lab work at a City Hospital. How much more accurate is this information when it's something supplemental to 4 pages of intake forms, being asked in the waiting lobby where there's 50 other people?
Or, is privacy not important anymore??

if y'all like blue cheeses, if you come across some, give Bleu d'Auvergne a try. Slightly creamier than Roquefort.

I have now officially started my work 'shift'. With the kids schooling from home, my wife and I are taking turns working since there's no way we both can work at the same time with them home.

Its the only reason to stop in Trinidad.

It's potentially medically relevant.

If you think that's bad you should see what a hernia test is

Speaking of hernias, at a former company we surgical meshes for hernia repair surgery. I was astounded to learn that there was an XXL size. 'Murca.

Thanks for the reco. We have a fromagerie nearby and I may check to see if they have any...

Oh - and since we're discussing cheese.

A land war in Asia in the same context is just as relevant.

You're getting blood work, and may have introduced or suppressed hormones in it or several other things going on that that question may address, but sure, okay.

 

[Westy]

oh shit, you walked into a cryptocurrency convention

More like a malnourished juggalo convention

 

[kidwoo]

now picturing you in a waiting room, the only one without scary clown makeup

 

[Muddy]

Thank You Doctor.

Why not have that question be part of the written intake form and have some other question be part of this oral pop quiz exam before returning to your seat amongst 50 other people just a few steps away?

Context is just as critical as content.

 

[Muddy]

You're getting blood work, and may have introduced or suppressed hormones in it or several other things going on that that question may address, but sure, okay.

Now am totally unsure as to what you're trying to infer with 'suppressed' or 'introduced' variables and verbal challenging - is there some immediate-reaction to the oxygen stream for the Doctor? Does this activate the microchips??
There's a massive microchip shortage at the present time, not everyone is so affluent...

 

[kidwoo]

Thank You Doctor.

No problem!

 

[Muddy]

No problem!

U sure?

Why y’all work out your gender identity questioners I’m gonna throw some weight on my back and wander around in the woods for a while. See ya.

There's no gender identity to work out here Bud - last time I had had sex was Christmas Eve 2010
















...I mean - what?

37 freedoms and windy. Don’t know why I was the only one there, weird.

Called the line as I was scheduled for jury duty. They do not need jurors this week. Therefore I have fulfilled my service and don’t have to do anything.

I think I’ll go karting tomorrow. Would go skiing but no new snow and I’m going Wednesday with the wife already.

I am the biggest fan of Czechoslovak sheep cheese.

What about Brazilian beaver cheese??

 

[slyfink]

since we're still on cheeses, my favourite all-time cheese I ever tasted was a Basque tomme I bought in Bayonne. I'm pretty sure it was an Ossau-Iraty. If your fromagerie has it, I highly recommend giving it a try. Tomme cheeses in general are among my favourites. A Tomme de Savoie brings me back to the verdant, flowering pastures of Les Portes du Soleil and the amazing riding there...

I also like semi-ripened goat cheeses covered in ash. Get one of those, grab a baguette, and go wine tasting in the cellars of the Loire Valley (you use the goat cheese to cleanse your palate between different barrels), and I swear to the good Lord you will be transported to a magical place. Pro-tip: sleep off your wine tasting amongst the rows of vineyards....
