Positives and negatives so far today
Apr. 3rd, 2010 03:36 pm+ Successfully downloaded Audacity and LAME encoder
- Kitchen faucet's hot tap developed a bad drip, and the shutoff valve under the sink doesn't work
+ Managed to get landlord to come over quickly
+ Landlord fixed leaking pipe in basement
- Landlord did NOT attend to kitchen sink. *#@&%!
+ Cut and pasted with Audacity to create a recital track with taxim intro and "Soode Soode"
+ Successfully exported that file as an MP3 and saved it in my iTunes
- Failed in my attempts to put on false eyelashes. Again. Ruined them, in the process.
+ Realized that my purple eyeshadow and purple glitter liner are going to be AWESOME for the recital
+ Mapped out "Soode Soode" (measure-by-measure structure of song with intro, verses, choruses, and instrumental breaks)
- Decided our 8" and 10" nonstick pans really are crap and must be thrown out.
+ Found out our 8" cast iron skillet can turn out a good 2-egg omelet, eliminating the need to replace the 8" nonstick pan.
+ Found a 20% off coupon for Bed, Bath, & Beyond which hasn't yet expired, and which can be used on a new 10" nonstick skillet.
Yes, roll your eyes at me if you want for the nonstick. I do a lot of lower-fat cooking. I DO have a 12" cast iron skillet, so for anything where I don't want nonstick, I've got that.
Incidentally: would anyone local to me like a stainless steel, copper-bottomed 8" pan? We really never use it, since we have the cast iron, but it's in perfectly good shape. The handle is plastic, and it has a loop that you can use to hang it on a hook. Let me know if anyone's interested.
