Damn it’s hot

Tuesday, January 3rd, 2012

Despite the January cold I am feeling this pervasive warmth, probably brought on by dinner.  Someone, not mentioning any names like what you might be singing for Christmas, brought home BBQ from a recently opened local BBQ place.  I got two sauce choices, hot, and insanely hot.  I tried a sprinkling of both.

After 30 minutes my lips still feel as though they’ve been brazed with a blow torch.  Only the fresh habanero pepper ranks higher on my list of ‘thanks, but I’ve already done that (and lived)’.  It was good mind you, but … ouch.

A few more meals like this and I may not make the end of the Mayan calendar.

 

 

Out with the old

Tuesday, January 3rd, 2012

Out with the old clutter.  We have to make room for new clutter after all, and God knows there’s a lot of it. So we shredded a dozen full garbage bags of stuff we probably never should’ve kept in the first place.  It’s not helping things living with 2 other pack rats.  Still we made a big dent in the clutter.  Just enough room for the new clutter from Christmas!
