Father’s Day is a weird day for me

I've got a step father and a bio-father. Both of them are as in my life as I'd like them to be, well mostly. I wish I talked more to both of them. Forgiveness is hard, and it's not something you only have to do once. My childhood was a shitshow. Too young parents who didn't know what they were doing. Doing their best, but never good enough. Kids raising kids. If my mother were smarter back then I probably wouldn't be here today though, so cheers to that I guess? Anywayyys. Having a step dad […]

#Bitching

Fuckin'ell, Snap is extremely annoying.

You know what sucks? When you lose some of your nice flatware... err... ummm... I mean when your roommate loses several pieces of your flatware and won't admit to it or offer to replace it.

If you're into the circus, you could just follow me today. I'm dealing with a) scheduling for my shows for December, including what times, what personnel I'll have, and promotion and advertisement; b) dealing with assisted living facilities for my mother, including some profoundly depressing realizations about pricing, which also involves dealing with the family, of course; c) the results of the imaging I got on Thursday, which apparently still aren't ready even though they said they would be; and d) an injured ankle, which has my wives nagging me to go to urgent care.

Wife-3 has to get to the pain management doctor and it's killing me not being right there with her when she needs me (the downside of #polyamory ...there's only one of me, and my wives deserve their husband)

Yeah, sorry, I'm #bitching

A quotation from Molly Ivins

Whatever you do, don’t give up. Because all you can do once you’ve given up is bitch.

Molly Ivins (1944-2007) American writer, political columnist [Mary Tyler Ivins]
Essay (1973-01), “Pitfalls of Reporting in the Lone Star State,” Houston Journalism Review

I like #hummus. I happened to be at Sobey's and decided to get some, though it's not where I usually buy hummus. They had this brand, "Fontaine Sante" (sorry, I can't type diacritical marks), and I bought the roasted red pepper "classic natural hummus". It's this one:

https://www.fontainesante.com/en/products/hummus-rrp

It has the usual ingredients you'd expect - chickpeas, tahini, garlic, salt, lemon juice, oil - plus the roasted red pepper. Nothing unusual there.

And it's ... awful. Not only does it not taste like any hummus I've ever had, it actually tastes downright unpleasant. I'm going to end up throwing the nearly-full container in the trash, and I *hate* wasting food. And no, it's not past its best-before date or anything like that. It's fresh.

I feel bad, because it's a Canadian company, but this stuff is inedible. The brand I usually buy is Sabra, but they don't carry that at Sobey's, plus it's American. I can eat their stuff by the pound.

Anyone familiar with this Fontaine Sante brand? Is it always like this?

I got sick a month ago. Took a covid test (nasal swab) and it was negative. Never went to the doctor. Had drainage for THREE WEEKS afterwards. Drainage is mostly gone now, but everything I eat and drink tastes like metal. Even water.
Like, did I have that new variant of covid that can't be detected with the swab test? Is this my life now? Aaaaaaaaaaah
