Posted - 01/04/2006 : 01:38:25 Aaah, I feel soiled and tainted. You see, I just had porridge for breakfast, which in itself is not a bad thing, but it's what I put in it that's making me feel bad. This morning, I put honey in. This goes against everything I have ever believed, Scots put buckets of salt in it and scoff at the sweetening of porridge.
Anyway, in the interests of health, I thought putting honey in my porridge would be a good thing (cause, you know, lots of people do it), foregoing salt for the first time ever (and trying to avoid a hike in my blood pressure). It was vile, it was rancid, I will never eat it again. Every mouthful was crying out for the sweet taste of salt.
What things have you all done recently that go against everything you've done? How did it turn out?

Posted - 01/06/2006 : 11:22:32 I tend to fear and hate firearms in general, but I like this one - a Smith & Wesson from the Civil War era - because it was given to me by a Navajo antiquarian in Gallup, New Mexico (2 months ago). Note that this lovely toy is disabled, otherwise it would have been confiscated by the TSA...

As far as I can tell, you're supposed to bin it immediately without touching it.

Posted - 01/05/2006 : 16:07:02 I recently bought a chart CD, which is pretty rare. Oh, and I drank some sort of weird fish tomato juice from Canada?
One of these things turned out well, see if you can guess which.

i put sliced jalapeños on a piece of toast with butter and orange marmalade jelly with my breakfast.
i'm having a hard time finding words to describe the experience. "breakthrough"? "epiphany"? |

Posted - 01/04/2006 : 10:06:15 I haven't done it yet, but next week I'm going to go against my grain and be enthusiastic and personable. I have a 2 day job interview. I must shine like the sun. Perhaps I'll need a liquid breakfast. |

Posted - 01/04/2006 : 10:05:27 they're actually the same shape as these (same company) but brown plaid body with a sort of brogues esque racing green toe to them and a bow.
sorry about this llama. |

Posted - 01/04/2006 : 09:53:06 Two examples, the top being a classic kitten heel, the bottom being slightly higher than the traditional kitten heel, both inciting in me strong feelings of lust.

Still not sure really.......

on topic though, going against the grain I need to buy some new shoes. I tried on a pair in clarkes that were very sensible and comfortable green suede flats and blah blah blah. I also tried on a pair in another shop which are against the grain for me, they are brown plaid with green suede tip and bow and they have... a kitten heel. My grain dictates sensible shoes, my against the grain weeps for kitten heels and bows. I do not know what to do.
No brainer. Kitten heel. Oh and the green suede tip makes me weep. BUY THEM.

No, I thought honey would be a better option. I tried stirring blueberry jam in after, but it just turned into a purple hell.
I have some Vermont maple syrup, but I don't think I'm ever drunk enough in the morning to try sweet porridge again.

That's because she was suggesting subpar Canadian maple syrup, not the real stuff:
