Get Going

I've got to snap out of this a little or I'll be completely useless this week, and that can't happen, because I have to help my mother move. So last night I pretty much informed Chris that he was making me risotto with asparagus for dinner -- I needed comfort food made by loving hands. He makes the best risotto I've had outside of Italy, and in addition to the asparagus, it had prosciutto crisps and dandelion greens. Most substantial meal I've had in days.

Here is a timely joke that made Chris wince in pain last night:

Q. What's Irish and can stay out back of the house even when it rains?
A. Paddy O'Furniture.

I think that's from the Blaine the Mono riddle battle in the Dark Tower. I love it for its sheer stupidity.

Also, so far this spring I've planted cherry tomatoes, Greek oregano, and many flowers. I also have some apparently indestructible peppers that survived several freezes and are already producing peppers again.
