Wood fires are my latest pet project. I've gotten good at building them by learning from B.
This morning I used a big log that was stubborn to catch. I could have let it go out. It's really not even that cold. But I wanted to win. So I made some adjustments and in no time flat it was roaring.

I am judgey about potatoes not cooked by me. Hops n Drops is now the exception. They have these things called Smashed Potatoes and omg they are delightful. Especially while still piping hot.
The problem with Tortilla wraps is that nobody sears the outside when they are done. I am going to start making my own breakfast burritos because that is the only way to get the outside of the tortilla brown and crispy.

She's with her wife. The one she is separated from. There's a little twinge of jealousy. It's confusing because at the same time I am very much enjoying having the house to myself. It isn't fun dealing with contradictory emotions. But I also don't think contradictory emotions are all that uncommon. Which is another way of saying plenty of people have felt these sorts of things. Two fish swimming in opposite directions.

Still adjusting to the Lexapro. Side effects are... not being able to trust a fart (sometimes), connected to frequent loose stools, occasional body aches (though some of that may be getting older), weird headaches sometimes, a feeling of coming up on mushrooms, eating disorder regression (really having to fight that one), increased anxiety at times. And increased anxiety leads to beer cravings. But I am generally a bit more cheery already. It is a thing that requires patience. Soon enough I may look like I am in hypomania. Which is the idea. Just have to keep on it a couple weeks.
