> [@flatlined](#): > > Try growing horseradish roots and rending them down into sauce. Better yet, don’t try that. Once I was able to go back inside I had to wash every single blanket, sheet, comforter, pillow etc. in the place. It took weeks of work to get the couch to stop stinking. My dad grew horseradish once and mom (and dad ?) ground it up and jarred it. Mom said never again. I don’t recall if they had to wash everything or if they left the house but, apparently, it wasn’t a good experience. They may have even done it outside or in the garage. ---

I’m having pizza for dinner, does that count? I was chewing on my lip as I was falling asleep the other night, and my god, does it HURT as it heals. It makes it harder to eat, and it’s hell when you’re brushing your teeth. I used to do this as a kid and I finally broke the habit when I was in college, but in the last few years, I started up again. (It’s mostly when I’m really, really tired, or really drunk) ARGH ---

Who is Barb Heath, and why does my car keep telling me I’ve gotten a message from her but then can’t retrieve it? If I press “Ignore” it keeps repeating that I have a new message and won’t stop. If I press “Read” it tries to retrieve it and just sits there. I can’t clear the message off the display without turning the car off. I’ve checked my missed calls and texting app, and there’s nothing from her. It is a puzzlement. Also bloody fucking annoying. Two days in a row now, 5 o’clock both times. Urgh. ---

Thanks, y’all, I somehow missed the “American Pie” shenanigans. That was … uh … wow. I wandered in here to bitch about _something_ but apparently it wasn’t all that bitch-worthy (completely forgotten, in fact) so I’ll just wander on back out.
