minutiae

[serene]

• I mislaid my datebook. Again. Either this is a sign from the Universe that I don't want to have any obligations now, or I'm just a ditzy flake.
  
  
• I'm a cooking marvel today. My kitchen looks like I'm getting ready for the fumigation, but I have two chicken-five-cheese-enchilada casseroles in the freezer, another in the fridge for a friend, and leftovers from the fourth. In addition, I have the best chicken stock I've ever made in precious quart jars in the fridge. They will go toward the pumpkin soup for Friday's Halloween party. I bought the pumpkin for the soup, and another one to serve it in. Also, someotherguy is eating my first attempt at homemade kim chi, and it's not half bad. I'll have to tweak it, but we both like it.
  
  
• My boss (someotherguy's brother) and his family had to be evacuated because of the fires in Southern California. They're safe, so far as we know, but this is a bad time, business-wise, for him to have to take the time off from the business.
  
  
• Tomorrow is my biopsy. I am not a wimp about pain, but I am slightly freaked out (just slightly, honest) about tomorrow's needle jab. I think I've put my finger on the whole thing with the biopsies and the neck ultrasound. It's that the pain is from something invasive and scary (feels like I'm either being choked or, well, jabbed in the neck with a big needle), *and I can't tell them to stop*. That is, I can, but I need this test done, and there is no painless way to get the test done, so I need to just suck it up, but that leaves me feeling so powerless and violated and icky by the end of it.
  
  
• misanthropoid reminded me that I have a BzzAgent buzz to give -- I am loving the new TVGuide.com, and what a relief. The last few things I've tested for the Bzz folks, I've totally hated. I was starting to get a complex. Anyway, the new fall season is better because of TVGuide, so there.
  
  
• Last night was Bachelor Night, so I stayed up WAYYYyyyyyy too late. Tonight, not so much. Good night, my friends and stalkers. Love and smooches.

I hope the biopsy is as short and unhorrible as possible.
