Dinner tonight

[davidn]

Well, Whitney was out again tonight and it was up to me to work out dinner for myself.

I ordered in a pizza. It was quite nice.

Man, I was getting ready to type, "do you ever have NORMAL dinners?" ;)

When the universe has dropped as many hints as it has to me, it's wise to admit defeat and just not try again - at least for a while.

Hah, and I had saved the link (not looking at it) to read your tale when I came home. Well-played. :D

Speaking of which, how is your finger? :S

That made me giggle xD

Well-played, sir.

Unfortunately I was reading it on the mobile, so it did not hide the text. Fortunately, my mind works faster than my reading so did fall into the trap and found myself disappointed on realisation you ordered in. :(

Thanks for asking! I haven't looked at it under the plaster for a while, but it doesn't hurt any more... the last time I saw it it was healing quite well. Prodding at it now, I think I've got all the feeling back in it, and it doesn't hurt to put a bit of pressure on it - but I think it's going to be quite difficult to get back into the habit of daring to use it to type!

I'd been planning this one ever since... well, ever since the last time I tried to cook, which wasn't very long ago. I think I've learned my lesson by now - as my uncle used to say, "If at first you don't succeed, don't bother trying" (just before that unfortunate suicide business).

It was time for me to accept that this is much safer, even if it makes for worse stories! I'm on my own again tonight so there's still room for calamity, but I'm going to try to do something that involves minimal use of knives or other things that should only be handled by an actual adult.

And so did your icon! I remember that music video being played constantly when we used to watch Sky One before the Simpsons during the evenings in university... I'd forgotten about it until now.

Perhaps you should try some random recipes.

Sometimes you'll be told to rinse the water.
