Jul. 26th, 2002 11:20 ami had lunch with someone i've known of online for quite a few years (a fellow wombat). she was fun and interesting, so i'm glad work let up enough to let her out for lunch. we ran into my friends
xiane and her boy stu. :)
last night, i made khatchapuri. it's one of my favorite foods, but i rarely make it. last night, however, i discovered that the bread machine could be my friend. ;)
khatchapuri is a georgian food... you start with a good dough, form it into an oval, fill with cheese/butter mixture (i use dry farmer's cheese, suluguni--a traditional cheese to use, and butter). then you bring up the edges of the oval to lay just over the cheese and pinch the ends together, making a boat. :) then bake.
boy was quite happy. next time, i might mix in some goat or sheep cheese, though, for a slightly sharper taste.
the rest of dinner was leftovers... we sauteed the previous night's green beans with butter and leftover broccoli. YUM!

weather.com claims we'll see 79 today, but i doubt it.

Jul. 26th, 2002 08:38 pmmy memories of oil of olay are all older women oriented. my grandmother used OoO, my friends' grandmothers. teenagers never considered using the stuff... things like that.
for some reason, i remember the commercials as only having older women. not elderly, but 50+, sometimes even 60+ or 70+--women with gray hair and wrinkles.
now, is this just some weird brain fart? did Oil of Olay really use older women in their commercials and market to older women? or did they use women in the 20-40 age range like they do now and my mind considers "old" far differently now than it did when i was four? am i projecting on my older memories, making the women seem older?

Jul. 26th, 2002 10:05 pmi was stretched out on my belly, laptop on a rack on the floor in front of me. boy sitting at the other end of the futon watching david copperfield, my feet in his lap...
when all of a sudden...
OW.
stabbing pain right in the rear of my rib cage...
what's a girl to do?
so i slowly twist myself into an upright fetal position... try to breathe... manage to take off my bra. and the low-level headache i've had all day manages to sear into the front of my head at the same time.
so i ask boy to fetch the naproxen--make that two--a glass of koolaid or water, and the psysheep tshirt, which is on the kitchen table where i left it while cooking the other day (didn't want to get flour/oil on it).
he's such a good boy.
and the naproxen managed to quell the low-level menstrual cramps i hadn't yet acknowleged.
scar tissue sucks.
it's so bloody unpredictable.
