Wondering what to do about the food in the fridge. I took some hamburger out of the freezer on Saturday, planning to use it on Sunday. When the Vikings got massacred on Sunday, I bailed on that and ordered take-out pizza. Now I've got leftover pizza and unthawed hamburger in the fridge, but tonight I meet at a restaurant with my philosophy group and will probably eat there. So I have pizza which may go to waste, and hamburger which isn't getting any fresher. I repeatedly see ads on TV that say that 40% of food in America is wasted. In my case, given that I live alone, I can see that happening. I wonder how well that applies to families. I guess it's true, but I've never looked into the statistic to see what it's based on. If true, it's a dreadful comment on the way we live as Americans.
Sorry to hear about Ebby, Joods. You did your best for her. ![]() RE: What's everyone up to right now?

Seeing if I can read from a Kindle book on my tablet without WiFi. Last time, I couldn't get a signal at the restaurant, so my tablet was useless. It's close to useless anyway, as it takes forever and apps are hard to use. I think come Black Friday, I'll grab a Kindle Fire on sale. The Fire HD 10 should be on sale again for $100. I can live with that.

Tested out the Lepai LP2020+ power amp I mentioned yesterday, and it sounds pretty damn good so far. Have yet to try it with my CBG and the AC-Tone, but I suspect it will still sound fairly good. At the moment, we're still wondering about which speakers we'll use, and whether it's possible to bridge the two speaker outputs.
Edit: I just tried it, with my Cigar Box guitar, preamp, and my pedals, and apart from me briefly losing my pick, and the difficulty in fitting my cables back into their box when I was done, there were no hiccups whatsoever.

I just got the news that I passed the first half of the PhD admission test... The second half is on Friday, and I'm literally scared shitless

Trying to fight off whatever plague this is that my husband brought home and infected me with. The symptoms keep changing so I'm not even sure how to treat it other than to try to sleep a lot today. UGH

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
Pharmaceutical and Medical Biomolecular Sciences... Fancy way of saying Medicinal Chemistry, lol
