February 10, 2002 there's no place like home
If evolution progressed at the same rate that my culinary skills have improved, I'd be wielding my spatula with a pseudopod. My soon-to-be-former-wife did all the cooking in my now-former life so I never learned how. At the beginning of our separation, I subsisted on grilled meat, salads, scrambled eggs, and pasta. My sister taught me how to cook rice, but she left town before teaching me how to make gravy. I am presently in my lemon-butter period.
Although I live in South Louisiana where there is no mountain, I inexplicably purchased a mountain bike today. Okay, maybe it was explicable. It was the only kind that didn't look like it should have a Toto-stuffed basket on the back. The chain fell off during an unnecessary gear-shifting maneuver I attempted on the other side of town. Thank God I was wearing ruby slippers.
