My arms are all scratched up. But on the plus side, almost all of the 16 strings of winter festive lights are now unwound from the tree in the front yard.

My housemate doesn't like to clean out her lunch containers and often stockpiles them in a mystery place until they're good and moldy. Then she cleans them all out at once and runs them through the dishwasher. Although the containers, which are mine, are glass, the smell and taste of mold never comes out of the plastic lids, so if you are unwary and store anything in them, it will taste like mold within 24 hours.
The result of this is that my tuna-fish sandwich tastes strongly of mold. ![]() |

Geez Tiki. I would have to have a good talk with her about that. There are some things a roomie should not have to deal with, and this is one of them.

I feel a little barfy now, but I know it's purely psychological, since the lid was technically sterile.
I have since thrown it away, and now have a nice 1-quart glass bowl. I wonder if I can get replacement lids? |

You should make her replace them, since it's her fault. I know I would.

Thanks Sugarpop, but this is actually not a thing that bothers me that much... I just need to be more careful about sniffing the lids before I use them! I will eventually just go ahead and get new containers. Trust me, there are other things that are much worse... like the cat-pee-scented squalor in the basement.

Let me just say, my housemate is an incredibly beautiful, highly intelligent, remarkably talented and VERY ECCENTRIC young woman.

The cop shooting range is within earshot; I'm not that close to it but noise travels especially on a river. On the nice weekends, I get to hear "bang, bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang..." all day long.
Why can't they get a noise wall like they have on the interstates so people living nearby can have some peace and quiet?

I have a cop shooting range directly across from my house. When it bothers me (which is rarely), I grab some weapons and join them.
The WTF about this one is that it is inside the city limits. Imagine that. This area is sparsely populated, however.

In my city, cop shooting is illegal.

Seems like I am always about 7 pages behind in my cellar new post reading. I'll never catch up.
