Aug. 25th, 2011 09:06 pmToday, cutting the nipples and pig skin off of a slab of bacon-to-be, with pork juice up to my elbows, I thought to myself, 'My life is not glamorous.'
That's okay, it's still a good life, and I will have many, many delicious breakfasts of bacon from this.
Tomorrow is Torn World's August Muse Fusion! I will be opening it in the morning tomorrow, and running it through Monday at noon. Please bring us prompts to work from, and if you're a Torn World contributor, consider jumping in yourself. This is a great way to get the muse flowing and give some flash fiction or sketching a try.
In factory news - I bought a scale yesterday, and was 132.6 lb. I have been stalled at between 132 and 133, according to the gym scale. Today, I was 134.8. O.o I am doubtful. I did not eat myself silly today.
Off to start the oven for bread now.

Date: 2011-08-26 05:48 am (UTC)We're getting to the time of year when some of my chickens will need to turn into freezer packages. I haven't butchered a chicken since I was a teenager, so this ought to be entertaining for everyone involved, except the chickens.
... autumn is advancing very quickly this year, it seems. It's disturbing.

Date: 2011-08-26 02:22 pm (UTC)This speaks to my frame of mind more than anything else, but when I first read the lj-cut sentence, I found myself trying to figure out what context might have a soon-to-be-mother cutting anything related to her nipples.
I actually came up with a plausible scenario or two.
