The day is winding down. It's full dark which is how it should be. Thank the Gods that DST is over for a few months!
By this time Wednesday, it will all be over but the final biopsy and the followup visit on the 29th. I'm going to keep the pressure on the Universe until then. After THAT.... the Christmas Rush Smiley ! Oh happy day! Oh well, only a few more years to go until he's retired and we can actually enjoy the Christmas season.... Smiley Smiley

I just spent some megabytes to find out which of the two Indianapolis locations of a meat shop is closest. Armed with that information, we will go forth and secure filet mignons..... Smiley

I'm having a hard time convincing Spirit that we do NOT need to go into town to vote tomorrow. It is the first Tuesday in November so we MUST vote!
There are no elections going on in Indiana this year......  Smiley

Skywise isn't home yet but I'm going to head out. He must be having a rough day. Of course, with all the storm damage and the humidity, everything will be late and slow to process.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Well, Skywise didn't get home until 3:30 so our planned meat buying expedition was cancelled. I have no idea when or if we'll be able to get steaks for my birthday. Everything would have been so much simpler if he'd been able to be on vacation this week.....

I just woke up from a nap and I'm really jittery. Probably just nerves but I don't like the feeling.

Dinner's cooking and we should be eating in half an hour. I can't have anything to eat or drink, including water, after midnight so I'm going to "overeat" a bit tonight. I won't be able to eat until sometime after the procedure which is scheduled for approximately 12 hours from now.
I'm babbling. Shutting up now.

Done eating. I'm going to get more tea before I have to stop drinking at midnight. I'd like to be reasonably hydrated in the morning....

We're back.
It's done.
It was a polyp.
And now I'm going to crash.
Be back later.

I'm up while Skywise and the girls get carryout pizza.
I'm looking for a hardcover copy of a paperback that has bookworm damage. I'm not sure how much Skywise wants to spend and I'm not hitting "buy" until I know.

Afternoon.
We went on an "expedition" this morning and gathered the rest of what I needed for my birthday dinner. Smiley Smiley So "dinner" is saved! Skywise is suitably impressed with the meat shop and we'll likely be going back to sample their wares. It is relatively easy to get to, just north of the airport off of West Washington Street.

Well, I was going to bake my cake tonight but naturally... I am out of sugar so there will be no cake baking tonight. I'll have to do it tomorrow after we get home from town......

Amazon is nuts.
I just got an email from them telling me that the USPS has informed them that a book I ordered has been delayed and won't be here until the 29th.

The book was delivered today... Smiley

Afternoon.
We're back from town and I'll finish my cake as soon as the shortening softens.
I just ordered Skywise a hardcover copy of the Necronomicon. Bookworms (the kind that eat books rather than read them) have gotten into his paperback edition so.... we sprung for a hardcover with better quality paper.

The cake will be coming out of the oven soon.

This is the first birthday since 1999 that I've spent without my War Queen. I want to cuddle her so much right now......

The cake is cooling and I need to get prone. I'm not quite recovered from Wednesday's adventures yet and this evening will be busy....

Couldn't rest. Keep thinking about how much there is to do and how I was going to get it all done. So, I got up and got started....

Table is set up and I just put the fire under Spirit's potatoes -- she wants mashed rather than baked. She should be eating by 8:30. Moonie and I are going to watch InHumans which will be over at 10 and I'll start our dinner.

Phase One -- Spirit's dinner -- is done. Moonie and I are gonna crash and watch InHumans and then I'll get started on our dinner which won't take all that long to fix even with soup and salad courses.

Skywise is eating his main course. The steaks -- despite what the thermometer said, -- came out "rare". I ate mine as it was, Moonie and Skywise ran theirs through the microwave. That may be how I'll have to do it -- sear them on the grill pan and finish them in the microwave.

Since it's after 2 am, I'm going to head out.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley
