Icarus's blog: "Somantics"

I'd feel bad about staying in bed til four today if I didn't feel so fucking awful.

I equated sleep last night to the feeling of having some colossus stepping on me.

It was just so heavy and indomitable.
That's a word right?

*scratches his head*
So I've only been up for a couple hours.
Went through the daily lulz, and was making some chickpeas and rice when I remembered a couple things.
1. Tomatos make me feel better when I'm sick.
Possibly more than OJ.
2. I had a can of "whole organic peeled tomatos" sitting on the counter.
3. ... I've left my tea on the counter for like half an hour.
Brb.

So I drank the juice and my throat started to feel a little better.
Blended the tomatoes and the chickpeas with some spices, and ... noticed it came out pink.

Crap.
The tomatoes weren't really cooked. So I had this gaspaccioish curry that... didn't do anyone any good.
So I popped it in the frying pan and thought about what one can do with whole
peeled
notalltheway cooked
tomatos

Roast them of course.

So lunch was all of ... 1.5 hours ago.

Dinner is in about 1:30 hours.

I've got a cup and a half of chickpeas (rehydrated but not cooked)
cup and a half of whole
peeled
tomatos
most of which have been seeded
four cloves of VERY old garlic
some whole spices (caraway, cumin and fennel)
salt, olive oil, paprika, red pepper, ground cumin

all sitting in my roasting tray at 250.

The house smells like an indian restaurant.
That's a good thing.
I might throw in my rice and some sunflower kernals toward the end.
I didn't add them at first because I'm going to eat those seperate of the rest.
Though I must say, roasted and ground rice is very nice.
Especially jasmine.

What else?
Haven't even loaded my game today yet.
checked my forum and someone built a Zeta 2.0.
And built him rather well. I'm going to engage him on the topic of wings and fins as I'm worried about that step.

I've also posed the question of metal option parts (screws, bolts, tubing, wiring, housing, etc that makes some kits just POP as opposed to their plastic original parts) since one of the more famous american suppliers went down this year.
and...
I dunno, there's quite a bit of time before my roasties are done.

Time to blow some shit up.
And watch kids in the hall.
