Bits and Pieces
Pilates this evening kicked my ass. OMG, did it kick my ass. And I have no idea why - no, scratch that, I know exactly why, I'm pretty sure it's the same reason I had cramps this morning. Gah. Being a girl sucks sometimes.
Also, can I tell you that Pilates does really weird things to tampons? Just sayin'.
Anyway, I'm home, and absolutely bloody exhausted, which is unusual because usually after Pilates, I'm...well, not energetic, exactly, but limber, and not in desperate need of a nap. On the plus side, no cramps. On the minus side, headache. I slept on the Metro coming home. The lovely thing about being at the end of the line is that if you fall asleep, you won't miss your stop, and generally people are pretty good about shaking you awake if it's the end of the line.
In other news, one of our recycling bins was stolen today. I came to this conclusion when I came home to find it missing. I'd like to think another homeowner accidentally grabbed it after the recycling pick-up, and once they realize that it has our house number on it, will return it in a day or so. (This has happened before.)
The next fudge experiment is chili fudge. That is, fudge with either red pepper or crushed chilis or something along those lines in order to give it a kick. I haven't decided which. I'm thinking it'll be a fake fudge, otherwise I'd try sauteeing the chilis in the butter used in the fudge, but I don't particularly want to go with another fudge from scratch until I can fix a few others. Also, I'm running low on butter. Again. Seriously, at Christmas, I should just buy a cow and be done with it.
Lastly, but not leastly - in news that has tickled me pink, I was fangirled, along with a few others, at
the_tenzo's journal for the Children of Time recs. Hee! I don't think of them so much as recs as just me trying to figure out who on earth I'm going to vote for, because I really don't know. But it's a great deal of fun trying to figure it out. (I'll prep a few more this evening, and get up the next one in the morning, methinks. There's a couple really long ones on that list, and I have no idea how I'm going to find the time to read them in order to review.)
