Bah.

Today has not been one of my better days. Depressed, disheartened, misanthropic. And my uterus decided that what would be REALLY FUN tonight would be unscheduled, unannounced, and copious menstrual flow (for certain values of "copious" which I realize are a mere nothing to some women). However. I did exercise. And I paid the quarterly taxes--which did not exactly help with the disheartened and misanthropic part. (Dear Federal Gummint: LIVIN IN THE FUTURE, UR DOIN IT RONG.)

On the unambiguously plus side, the experimental bread (two cups rye flour, two cups whole wheat flour, two cups and change white flour) has turned out rather shockingly tasty. Hopefully, it will turn out to be good sandwich bread also, and then I only have to work out how I think I'm going to store three different kinds of flour, plus oats.

And now I have 1,000 words of wolves to write. As the man in Ngaio Marsh says, Excelsi-bloody-or.

Hello! Since I forgot to say so before, it was really nice to see you at Wiscon the other week! --I now return to being completely indistinguishable from everyone else on the internet.

--the one who didn't have a suitcase & was disproportionately excited that Felix and Kay live in the same big house.

Can I say, utterly selfishly, WOOHOO WOLVES!?

And I'm sorry about your innards and your taxes. =(

Flour Storage: Ikea has a line of nice glass storage containers with sealed lids good for holding flour or cereal. I have an old style one that's still kicking and it's awesome.

Store them in belly. There. Glad to be of helpfulness.

It sounds like your innards have been speaking to mine.... :(

I've always stored my flours in the freezer, in big zip bags. Keeps away spoilage and bugs. Of course, you first have to *have* a big freezer....

You get extra points for exercise AND taxes.

It's been a week (fortnight, really) for people I know and like having uterus troubles, scheduled and not. I would like to file a complaint.

(Mmm. Rye bread. My mother had a rye sourdough starter going for about six months or a year, which was delicious.)

Oh! Also, I started watching Due South last night for the first time, and I must say that the episodes are wonderful with your commentary as a chaser. Thank you!

I am in awe of your ability to make bread while dealing with the uterus. It does sound tasty, though!

Mercifully, the uterus waited until after the bread was made. And the cramps waited until bedtime. So, okay, yeah. Could've been worse. *g*

I have no idea how such things work, or if they do :) But I have left you a message in your livejournal inbox. Good vibes for feeling better.
