Five Things Make a Post

1. Apparently I have been walking around all day with a utility knife in my back pocket (from cutting the carpeting into bin-sized pieces yesterday evening). Good thing I wasn't trying to fly anywhere.

2. Today I got as late as 9:30 before hitting the wall; clearly I must be recovered from the exertions of painting. But it's a good thing that I only have a couple more to-do items for A&S this weekend because I keep not fitting them in.

3. It was a cosmic certainty that no sooner had I commenced on the guest room project than I encountered more potential houseguests than I normally see in a quarter-year. With luck, at least the floor will be complete by the time the parents are scheduled to arrive (assuming the logistics on their trip work out, which isn't yet certain), so that the furniture and whatnot can be moved back in making the couch accessible. (It's unlikely that the wall-bed will be installed by then.)

4. Squirrel!

5. Haagen Dazs 5 is an excellent concept in ice cream. The name of this particular line refers to the number of ingredients in each flavor: milk, cream, sugar, eggs, and the named flavor ingredient (in the case of the ice cream currently sitting on top of my cherry pie, coffee).

I am coming over to your house for dessert.

How do they keep the texture creamy without agar or carageenan? In my experience, even with eggs the texture gets icy after a week or two.

As one who as asked if it is possible to come stay one night, I can assure you, I don't need a guest room, a dry patch of floor would do me just fine. If it is an option for me to stay Thursday before Crown, please let me know ASAP (I haven't see a reply to my message, if you sent one). If not, please let me know that too so I can ask on SCA West--[livejournal.com profile] duke_flieg says he can drive me to Crown, but only if I can find some place to stay in Berkeley as he won't have time to go elsewhere that morning.
