Hmm? Oh, well, it just is.

No pain.  Simply no longer asleep.  Thirsty.  Too warm hereabouts?  Tonight, I think so.  Even with the fan, my sleeping chamber is only getting to the high 50's.  Yeah, that's like spring!  I may have to see if the ac fan, on a timer, will help.  Oh, I know, many of you wish for this sort of heat wave.  If I weren't sure some neighbors, especially the female varietal (men would too, but the 'know' better while woman are simply violent :P ), I'd trade you.  Now, mind you, it's NOT in the upper 50's outside!  That is simply as cool as it has been getting in that unheated room (actually heated through radiation from the stone wall of the original stone house to which it is now attached).

Very thirsty.  I'll tank up, probably a gallon and an half.  Thirsty!  I did get, finally, one batch of kefir to create grains large enough they didn't go through the strainer, barely.  Two weeks of working with the stuff, or more, mostly just cutting kefir in with new milk.  Even so, these grains just won't do.  The other stuff, which used to grain up, is no better.  That stuff, when I get it going, usually cuts thirst.  Haven't tried the whey yet, curious about it.  Sure cuts lactose, if milk doesn't seem to ding diabetes all that bad for me.  Can be large variances.  Though, too, when I quit my artificial sweetener then lactose might become the next weak point.  So... kefir.  Still, this time I went for the wrong starter, but it was the only one locally.  Oops.

Dreams.  Five days, one week, those words were the whole of the dream.  Not the first time I heard that.  Last time, a song was found which explained that dream with, initially, visuals and a sense.  After some time of listening I finally heard those exact words.  Yeah, I don't always understand right off.  Sometimes I never get what it was all about.  You might get it better or before me... if I'm not sure that understanding leads anywhere?  Certainly not always to me.  Hmm?  I simply don't know, not sure I want to know.  Especially if you saw the things I don't write about.  If I suspect those are, eventually, for me.

Oh, I meant to ask the other day.  Is 275 degrees F considered really hot.  I had a cast iron skillet in the oven while bringing it to that temp for the carnitas.  It was at that temp for about an hour, so I'm pretty sure the skillet was.  I was able, without thinking, to move it from the oven to the stovetop.  Now, when I realized what I had done I checked for damage.  None.  So I checked if I could do that consciously.  No problem.  Though maybe 275 F isn't really that hot?

On to net snooping until sleep can be found.  Finishing up the album from the other night.  Not all bad.  Later or good night.
