Not bright
Lately I've been musing on
monshu's near-infinite patience with my little fuck-ups (like overloading the shower rod or forgetting to lock the back door). In fact, yesterday I was wondering to myself How am I screwing up now? Then bedtime rolled around and I realised I hadn't brined the pork chops like I'd promised to, so I went to the fridge and didn't find them. I went through it again and again, despite the fact that it's been recently cleaned (by somebody AWESOME) and there's really no way to hide a pack of twelve loin chops in it anymore. I checked the freezer as well, then cast about to see if we'd done something comically stupid like left them out overnight.
I slept badly (those chicken sliders yesterday were definitely a mistake) and woke up crazy early. So I went upstairs and asked the Old Man if he knew where our pork was only to find he was as baffled as me. When I woke up again (less than half-an-hour before I needed to leave for work) I pondered when I had last seen them. I remembered distinctly putting them into a plastic bag and slipping them into the canvas bags we brought. Or maybe I just imagined the last part? Maybe they got left in the plastic bag frame at Dominicks? At least there's still plenty of soup.
