Odds and Ends

It's a day that's too hot, a day where I'm too nauseous for words, a day where I'm trying to get excited for my research, a day where work is blowing up again, a day where I get disappointed in farmer's markets.

No seriously. I know things are going to be priced higher because of the style of farming. There's priced higher and then there's insanity. No, I'm not paying you 10$ for zucchini bread (and she got a little pissy that I didn't and now I have some of my own in the oven), 7$ for four peaches seems a bit much. The zucchini and tomatoes were reasonable as was the corn. So guess what I came home with.

Also 15$ for dinner at a food truck also seems a bit much. So sorry, looked good, not paying that. If I'm paying that I don't want to be outside with the bugs.


And if anyone wants a postcard from the UK drop me your address in a PM (as I'm too lazy to screen right now). I'm not promising I can find any (as they're apparently passe) but I'm happy to send them.

If I had unlimited funds I would buy this Absolutely Fantastic Steampunk corset

And today on TMC they had something that didn't get on my nerves (I'm not a fan of most old movies, SFF & horror being the exception) They had this Carmilla adaptation from 1932 (not lesbian, vampire an old crone) that I was wondering if it was silent movie later adapted into German but this wiki had some interesting info Vampyr
