@kenner wear nitrile gloves next time! I once processed 40 pounds of green chiles after roasting them, and I had “Chile hands” for like 2 days. So awful. I never thought to wear gloves, but it makes huge difference.

Omg, Sweaty does that very occasionally, always when I’m not around so I’ll come home from work and be like who the hell are you? A weird amount of time he‘s done it right before we’re going to do a rare social thing but arrive separately, so I show up and see him and don’t recognize him or am visibly shocked or whatever, and our friends are like, but you live with this man!

Wash gently with a paste of water and baking soda. It’ll help neutralize any residue.
Thanks, I’ll give that a try! And thanks @mountainmustache29 too…when I do this again I’ll remember that (although it’ll be a while). And yeah, @katscratch, no trouble remembering to keep my hands away from my face last night

I usually read a lot of post apocalyptic fiction, and none of that appeals right now, and I can’t pick what I want to read.

Things I never expected to have to catproof: the ledge above our pantry door, OMG WTF GIRL KITTY. How does she even fit there, it’s so narrow?
I can’t find anything to block it off that she won’t immediately knock down, loudly, and I figure it’s safer to just let her walk up there then have her knock shit down onto her brother (who hasn’t made it up there yet but is FASCINATED that she has, and keeps sitting right under the doorway staring up at her in admiration.

Also, 2 inches of wet slushy snow predicted today. Fuck this shit. This continued miserable weather is not helping my feelings of stircraziness.

Yeah, he was like “well since we’re self isolating for the next week no one is going to see me, I might as well try something new.”
I’M GOING TO SEE YOU.
At least it takes him only about a week to get back to a short beard. I don’t think he understands that I care about his facial hair a lot but don’t give a crap that he’s balding.
I’ll love him either way but I do hope he grows his beard back right away…

Apparently my brain doesn’t work at 9:30 pm during a pandemic. I meant to cut my bagel dough into 14 pieces and ended up with 28.

I have finished the ebook I bought for myself because there’s a pandemic, and yet the pandemic isn’t over.

It sound to me like you’re baking pre-sliced bagels. Smart!

One of my neighbors (a few houses down) is mowing their lawn.
IT IS MARCH. YOU DO NOT NEED TO MOW YOUR LAWN HERE IN MARCH. YOU WILL DAMAGE YOUR LAWN!
(This Tiny Complaint is more for that person’s lawn than for me, I don’t personally care either way. But their lawn is going to suffer.)

First world problem: Every book I have on hold at the library is a physical book because they don’t have it in an ebook. The libraries are now closed.
I… think I am going to actually have to buy an ebook now. The new Incryptid has been out for what, a month now? I waaaaaaant it.
Other first world problem: my current library book is this, and it is SO not the time to be reading stuff about creating one’s ideal life when my ideal life involves sometimes leaving the fucking house. I threw it aside in disgust, literally.
