That was a very good pork roast.

.

Browning, the only way to go.  Will never skip it from now on, no matter the meat.  As well, and onion, halved, put on top.  As well as salt and pepper.  I let it mostly cook, then added the older veggies.  but they were still good.  Gave it all another half hour, and... dinner.

The pork was overdone, by temp.  But was... fine.  Pork can handle some overcooking.  Especially for us older types, who are used to pork being cooked to absolute death because of the parasites that are common to pork.  Anyway, still very, very good.

I thought about salad, with fresh on hand.  But the meat and veggies was quite enough.  I might have something later, or not.  I will be sure to put this roast up.  I have turnips and rutabaga, which I might make for the next serving of this.  Nothing like those root veggies with a roast, of almost any kind.

I haven't heard anything back.  Sent a fax, regarding a potential lean on my house.  I didn't know about that.  Wasn't informed.  Anyway, want to find out more.  Waiting for more information before things are sorted.  Time.  Tic-toc, tic-toc, clippety-clop... the horseman are time killers, but... time can only be killed just... so... much.  Delayed, not truly killed.  But... killed enough to make it all work.  Just, not all times, in all things.  To each nature and reality, as season.  Odd.

Oh, but I did, finally, get kefir going.  Not sure it will work out.  Using quart jars, but only filling them half way... until the grains really pop.  Then I may add more.  Want to see what will happen.  On the bad side, the grains I got, I got quite a while ago.  I think they will still work, but may be a bit janky?  Or take extra time?  Lightly pasteurized milk, non-homogenized.  Perfect for starting.  Though, if this doesn't work, I'll reorder, and restart the whole thing.

I... couldn't get out.  I... couldn't get going.  I am still having trouble.  I am way behind, on a dozen things.  But... the rabbits are kept fed and watered, as is Sassy, and even myself.  And clean.  Litter to behind the ears, if the house needs help.

I may call, about the offer on the house.  See where that might lead.  I doubt if I could get what I would really want.  But you never know.  I'd need three, to three and an half of debt, to feel like I could walk away with enough for a new gig, probably somewhere South of the border.  Or in Asia.  

If Asia is looking a little spooky, with China wanting to own the area, an idiot in the lead office of the land, and asians freaking about covid, and doing things not even America or Europe has tried to implement, yet.  Not sure if foreigners are as poorly treated as the natives, but... it... could be a bit treacherous over there.  Even in the more West friendly of the nations.

South America... depends on where, and when.  And, might be able to find a way out if it all went to shit.  Probably have a method or three, on the sidebooks, just in case.  Anything from another covid overreaction to a bloody insurrection, invasion by another nation or China, or... pick one.  South America is not exactly known for stability, or civility, when it goes... well... south.

My mother doesn't like the idea.  But the truth is, in exploring options regarding escapes, I may well end up visiting her more often, having extra cast and a lower overhead, even living in a foreign country.  So it goes.  Europe is gone, as a potential place to move.  They have become muslim, and it won't get better.  They are crushing their people, and I look like their people... or close enough.  Then again, nowhere is safe.  Not anymore.  Choose your poison.

Well... on to gaming.  They nerfed one of the major bosses, though they have nerfed on both sides of things.  I don't know.  I had a Chinese instructor who, first, failed every single engineer in his engineering calculus class.  Then, when I was in his class, I got like 665 of 693 total points in his class, with homework, quizzes, tests, and the final.  The next was a 560, the rest were mostly in the 330 to 360 ranges, with a few in the 260 range.  He gave EVERYBODY a B or higher.  Asshole.  They sent him back to fucking China, where he belonged.  He had a really attitude about Americans.  I was surprised they bombed him, but... all good.  Still.  That is what this feels like.  Either failing everyone, or passing everyone with a higher grade.  Assholes.

Anyway... on to it.  Have a good day, or... night.  And maybe goodnight.  What little I did today has pretty much worn me out.  Might be able to sleep earlier.  Or not.  Later, or goodnight.  And... in spite of my foul tongue to page, amen.
