What have you done today? (Pt 2)

['andersom']

Thanks for that good advice, Hykey. No kidd ya.. for the first time in my life I opened up that little doorlet on the washing machine.. to find a thingie where one could pull on.. and yes, the door opened up. Cleaned the filter there (first timer too, here) and greased the locking mechanism a tadski better than I did yesterday. Yesterday I used WD-40 but that didn't do the trick. Now it works a treat. Thanks again.

Did other daily stuff but also, talking 'bout sprouting/in a way, I put a lot of small garden cress seeds in a little plastic container. On proper soil, spray-watered the soil and put the lit on. P/m in a week I'll have 'me' own cress. Said to be very healthy stuff.. to be grown year 'round basically.

May Spring arrive soon..

Going to eat my first cress tomorrow.

And yesterday I made a first attempt to make burgers with sprouted chickpeas and alfalfa. They were quite good.

Hoping for spring too.

I found the solution to this without the teacher.

"Three consecutive integers are such that the first plus one half the second plus seven less than twice the third is 2101. What are the integers?"

Good luck. And I didn't use google, so don't unless you're a filthy cheater.

Had an appointment with my orthoptist. She says my surgery seems to have been a complete success. At least if you ignore the problems I've had.

ah, yes.  the old, "the operation was a success, but the patient died" variation.

Basically.

She understood the irony perfectly, actually. It's a frequent problem with those of us who have had a lot of surgery. My eye muscles actually work the way they are supposed to now, but the scarring is what causes the problems I'm having.

Again I've made a chicken broth today. From four drumsticks (free range). I'm getting, if I may say so myself, pretty good at it. It's also my secret 'thing' to staying rel. healthy, I reckon. Also looked for a pair of new shoes this afternoon. Think I found some and tomorrow I'll buy them (probably).

1. Put money in the bank.
2. Got the routing number to my credit union savings account so the IRS and CA Tax Franchise Board can direct deposit my returns.
3. Paid my TV/internet/telephone bill.
4. Made an appointment to get my taxes filed tomorrow.
5. Bought lottery tickets, bananas, rice* and bbq ribs.




*I will not destroy the rice cooking it like some people in LA. do.

I didn't destroy the rice.  That was the best part of the meal.  Or are you referring to Los Angeles and just forgot the space?

I should be the one hiding under the chair.  I looked up rice production in the US and found this among other facts:

Rice cultivation began in California during the California Gold Rush, when an estimated 40,000 Chinese laborers immigrated to the state and grew small amounts of the grain for their own consumption. However, commercial production began only in 1912 in the town of Richvale in Butte County. By 2006, California produced the second largest rice crop in the United States, after Arkansas, with production concentrated in six counties north of Sacramento. Unlike the Mississippi Delta region, California's production is dominated by short- and medium-grain japonica varieties, including cultivars developed for the local climate such as Calrose, which makes up as much as 85% of the state's crop.

I was born in Colusa, Colusa County which is one of the rice growing counties you refer to.

Fuck all.

  I guess they don't teach reading comprehension on the West Coast either.
