I'm debating a new Farthouse thread. The current one was opened in 2017 and hasn't had any activity since July. We're due for a new one but It's also true that the TFF art scene has slowed down a lot. I found some pics of NFL sheets that Sears sold in the 70's and I thought they might make goo avatars. The set of sheets looked like this;  Cleaned up the images look like this,  And as an avatar,  There are multiple pics out there so I've got good reference material. BTW, I had these as a kid. They were this as a piece a paper, which is not good for Minnesota winters.

Spent literally hours prepping food for four people. "Oh we have another three coming for dinner". gently caress sake. There's plenty of food in the house but now it's like, cool everyone gets less than half a portion of what I've prepared. Or 4 people get an actual meal. And i get to fight for kitchen space. So glad I spent a small fortune and hours preparing everything.

Dang, forget the avatar, I’d take those sheets on my bed now, they look cool as hell BlindSite posted:Spent literally hours prepping food for four people. "Oh we have another three coming for dinner". lol, as a matter of course I prepare double what I ever need, ostensibly for just such an emergency but really so I can gorge myself on whatever good poo poo I made, and if I have something for unexpected guests it’s an added bonus.

The drawings were based on real players apparently. The Bills one looks like O.J. Simpson and since it was the 70's the Redskins name was still the thing. I like the square that's just AFC or NFC.

I managed to salvage everything but slapping together a beer based pizza dough that and throwing some prawns on ice with a rocket and watermelon salad. loving annoying though. I could have catered for any number. Just don't tell me last minute. Oh well. Bottle of tempranillo made it bearable.

I wonder why there's a split between calling it arugula & rocket, like with eggplant & aubergine*. I mean I get why here in the US we call it canola oil instead of rapeseed … *I did find it funny that in Archer Lana named her daughter Aubergine as that is a roundabout racial slur for black folks.

Mother-in-law but once invited a bunch of relatives over to our house because we were hosting one of he cousins from Germany who was in Boston for some work thing. I though we were gonna have 4 people, I think it turned into 16 because "hey everyone, So-and-so hardly ever comes to the states why don't you come visit while she's here!" We at least had a couple of days notice after the final tally but that was a bit a of a shock.

I'll admit I just did that yesterday ("oh yeah sorry I am actually going to show up and bring one of my brothers also") BUT in my defense I am bringing a 9lb ham, a tray of scalloped cheese potatoes, and a cheesecake.

I then get to spend the week after Christmas sorting through toys and taking them to the thrift store to be “donate” when I know I’m mostly just transferring the job of throwing it away to someone else. Everyone wants to know what your kid wants for Christmas, and we have like 6 different people who want to buy him things. We end up with a lot of duplicate stuff, or just general crap because someone felt obligated to get him toys. All this plastic junk gives me anxiety. Meanwhile, all the things I used to enjoy, taking time off work, seeing friends visiting from out of state, doing some home projects, all get pushed aside because I have a kid who is home from school for two weeks and I need to find things to do with him.

We end up with a lot of duplicate stuff, or just general crap because someone felt obligated to get him toys. All this plastic junk gives me anxiety. Makes sense. I'm stuck in a semi-hoarder house so a few more items don't bother me too much. I've also pushed a lot for Legos as gifts over the last 3 years because worst case I can play with them down the road. I actually don't like my kid's shift to wanting video games, even if it does mean less clutter. As for the people to see, that ship has sailed a long time ago due to everyone's marital Christmas obligations. Very rare for anyone to be around at the same time. It's cool you're even getting to do a modicum of that. And taking time off work gives me anxiety so it's funny to read someone who looks forward to it. I worked hourly jobs for a decade to scrape by and hated missing those hours, and even now at a salaried job I just worry about everything piling up.

Merry Christmas, y'all. I'm sober, my fiancée is coming over with baked ziti in a little bit and I'm home instead of in a hospital bed. (Edit: And my landlord gave me the OK to adopt a cat, despite a "no pets" clause in my lease; we're going to go to the humane society after the new year.) Love all y'all.

Merry Christmas Timby and that sounds like an excellent way to celebrate the holidays. I currently have 3 cats on my lap and hoping to lure the 4th down from her spot on the cat tree.
