Well, I’m glad to see Idle was a typical Scum. Another one down. And we {STRATEGY TALK DELETED}.

I don’t want booze tonight, I want a sugary snack. Donuts.

I want a hurricane cocktail. We’re fine as are most of our possessions, but it’s been a stressful few days.

3 PM cannot get here fast enough. I won’t be here for it–will likely be in trial this afternoon, and then my husband is at an afternoon meeting in Cincinnati and won’t be getting home until about 7PM at least (he might not come home before going out with a buddy whose divorce is being finalized today). Speaking of which, gotta go give said buddy moral support (working in domestic relations and juvenile court has its benefits). Lates.

More like ~3, probably, since I have to process everything and then do the reveal. But as soon as practicable.

Speaking of which: **EVERYONE WHO HASN’T SUBMITTED THEIR TARGETS, DO IT AT YOUR EARLIEST CONVENIENCE, PLEASE**. Thanks.

I didn’t know you were on the collard green council.  
And I don’t think It prevents dead (it might help sleepy though)

Chard is better than kale. And beet greens, practically the same thing. Mmm.

I don’t know that I’ve ever tried beet greens. Generally when we buy beets we get only the root.

For some reason, I’m now craving salad.

How can anyone crave salad ☹ I love my veggies cooked.

I try!

I don’t think I had ever eaten beet greens since my kidhood, when we had a huge garden. But we planted a few beets this year in our little garden out back – good stuff. And closely related to chard, hence the comment.

I think it was all the talk of ‘salad greens’; though we do generally eat collard greens, kale, and chard ‘cooked’.
