Not going fast.

The chainsaw is oiled, has a fresh battery, and is ready in all other ways.  Sassy has been fed, and her litter boxes cleared.  I am finally getting to a bite and some coffee.  But, that is over a severe bloody nose that just won't stop.

It is just hitting 73 out there.  I have had the door open this morning.  It was 70/72 upstairs, but 68 everywhere down here.  Even now, it is just to 70 near the computer.  A very partly cloudy day.  I'm guessing the hurricane flushed any weather to the south and east of us up our way.  I strongly suspect we will get our share of that weather in a day or five.  Or sooner.  We had pretty hefty gusts last night, and I suspect it was from the hurricane.  As some things, and others go, this is a very small world.

I look at the clock, and wonder.  But, then, I did get up late.  And, even though I am getting to work lately, it always takes me two to four hours to get my butt in gear.  Given when I work, noon or thirteen hundred, wouldn't be that late of a start.  Though more so with this massive bleeder.  Though, when I back off working as hard this weekend, I am hoping to go to bed earlier, and hopefully wake up earlier.  I nearly woke at 7:38 this morning, just... couldn't quite get out of bed.  But I did wake, and enough to consider getting out of bed.

Oh, I set up sprouts, too.  With salad, even as a salad replacement, sprouts are fairly good.  Tasty?  Like any other salad.  Try it sometime.  Just add a little vinegar, oil, salt, pepper, and maybe grated good parmesan, or a few sprinkles of cheddar, maybe sunflower seeds (if you can find non-Chinese) or other nuts.  Nothing fancy, but very economical, good nutritional density, as tasty as any other green thing, and you can grow it yourself in a few days.  In some ways, you can't beat it.  Go fancy?  Add red wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar, and any right oil (avocado, olive oil, or such).  perhaps a pinch of spice, hot or savory.  Or, add it to a tuna sandwich, or other sandwich, for some crunch.  Life rarely gives you a cheap, easy, diy food item.  Take it when you can get it.  Sure, the seeds cost a bit, especially by the pound.  But that pound will last a year, and make fifty pounds of sprouts.  At least it does me.

Vegetarian?  You know better.  Certainly not vegan.  Closer to carnivore, just not an absolutist.  I don't mind cheating on meat, from time to time.  Hippy?  What a larf.  You absolutely know better.  Had to laugh when I was telling a woman about sprouts, and she asked if I was a hippy.  She is far closer, doesn't even know it.  Thinks it's by food or even appearances.  Not liberal ideas, which her head was full of... what a silly gander.

Well... on to looking around the web.  Perhaps gaming for a bit.  Then to the wood pile.  And, maybe, after that... who knows.  Later.
