5 things

There was a small article in our local paper about a funeral home in town. At the end of the article, it said: "You can reach a live person at [phone number]". I read that and cracked up so hard. I don't know if it was inadvertent or funeral home humor, but either way it was hysterical to me.

I posted a new Guardian fic, where Zhao Yunlan gets turned into a vampire. It's here: A Different Kind of Hunger

I have icons to post but I am too lazy to do so.

I got a new saute pan today and I am in looooove. It's T-Fal and a 5 qt. I got rid of like 4 other frying pans when it came in today because it's going to do a lot of stuff they couldn't. (and better, if they could) I DON'T CARE HOW BORING THAT IS, I AM EXCITED.

The National's new album is out today! It's different but I'm digging it.

I remember the year I got a new stockpot *and* a new lampshade for my birthday and I was immensely please! Enjoy that saute pan!

"You can reach a live person at [phone number]"

Hee!

Yay fic! \o/

I got a new saute pan today and I am in looooove.

Oh, I love that kind of thing. I think being able to find joy in small things is the secret to a happy life. :-)

The live person line had me cracking up too. That's hilarious.

And new pots and pans are a very exciting and happy making thing especially when you've been making do.

That is so frustrating when that happens! Glad you got a new pan. Makes cooking and cleanup so much easier.

I remember how amazing I was the first time I got a really good nonstick pan. I hadn't realized cooking could be that easy/non frustrating. :D

Oh, I understand being excited about a pan. I was overjoyed years ago when I finally got a Sarpaneva cast iron pot because I'd been dreaming about it for years. Oh, and it definitely fucking came with me in the divorce.
