We had dinner rather late, so we did not have any "after-dinner episodes." Dinner was from a local place, a Taco Bell/KFC place combined. BH and SB had KFC, I had Taco Bell. I love KFC but I have heard bad things about how they treat their chickens. With Taco Bell, I can have a seven-layer burrito and it is vegetarian.
We have had an ant problem lately, that is one of the reasons for the late dinner is that BH and SB were working on the ant problem. Such as laying down powder that is bad for the ants, but safe for the cats. So things are starting to get boring again ...

We always use cinnamon to repel ants. It works great!

I had a huge ant infestation in my bathroom, and Terro ant traps took care of the problem in about 5 days. Kitties weren't really attracted to it, and couldn't get into them anyway. They worked great for me!

So I did remember to tell Snowbunny about the Terro traps. As it turns out, she had already bought some.
Brother-Husband has a tattoo way up on his left arm, a tattoo with an Adam and the Ants theme. On Tuesday he got another tattoo way up on his right arm, a red-winged blackbird plus his nickname. It's a perfectly innocuous nickname, but for some reason SB didn't want the tattoo to include the nickname, or at least she wanted him to discuss it with her first and he did not discuss that part of it. So, she was upset with him on Tuesday. By Wednesday (yesterday) she seemed to be doing fine but I have a feeling she will always disagree with that part of his decision.
Over the last two days, BH and I have watched two more GoT episodes. BH is starting to like the series. Although, he is still characterizing it as, "Everyone in it wants to be the king." That's fine, he'll come around.
Dinner last night was veggie burgers. And borscht.

Snowbunny is pretty much always the one that prepares dinner. Once in a rare while Brother-Husband does it, on his days off. BH and SB generally do the dishes together. That's right, the only role I play is eating. And brushing my teeth.
Last night, dinner was a TV dinner, Salisbury steak with potatoes and string beans. Family size, supposedly six servings, actually barely three. Which works out I guess. BH had a long day at work, so we did not watch anything.
Goddamn, I'm hungry. And thirsty, if you know what I mean. I'll probably go eat something in a few minutes here. Hopefully not a lot.

Today Snowbunny had a work outing, to go to the zoo. She was given one extra ticket, and as she said to me, it was assumed that that ticket would be for her husband. So she and Brother-Husband went to the zoo today with some of her work colleagues. I stayed home. This is not a problem for me. Our V is not out to any work colleagues. That also is not a problem for me. It used to bother me a little, but nowadays I'm rather indifferent about it.
Yesterday, BH and FNG went out together to see a movie and perhaps eat out for dinner. SB and I weren't invited, which really wasn't a problem, we just did our own thing for dinner, we ate out and got sushi. I love sushi.
Tonight after BH and SB get home, we will either have dinner the three of us together, or they will bring me something to eat. Not sure which. Although in the back of my mind, I'd love it if the three of us went out to eat somewheres.

Luckily we did eat out. We walked over to Pho Yelm and I had my usual there, shrimp stir fry with egg noodle. And Thai iced tea. Good stuff.
After we got back, BH and I watched GoT:S1E6. BH was quite impressed by the ending, it was the one where they poured the molten gold on the guy's head. My apologies if that was a spoiler for you, it was a really gruesome scene. BH is definitely starting to get into GoT. I suppose that's all I have to tell you for today.

Dinner yesterday was sauerkraut with sausage and vegetables. BH prepared most of it, SB prepared the potatoes. About an hour after dinner BH and I watched GoT:S1E7.
Not much going on today so far. I believe BH and FNG went to the gym earlier. I've mostly been doing my computer/internet stuff.

Dinner yesterday was leftover sauerkraut/sausage/vegetables. And BH and I did watch an episode, GoT:S1E8.
Earlier in the day I made a few phone calls. Some chiropracter's office thinks I am someone named Jamie and has been disturbing me with birthday greetings for Jamie. I called them and explained the problem. They said they'd look into it.
Every week or two I get an automated call from Costco, saying I have won some kind of contest. It always says, press 2 to be put on the no call list, and I always press 2 but to no avail, a week or two later they are calling me again. I'm sick of being disturbed by this spamming behavior so I called their customer service number. After I persisted with Elizabeth (the customer service rep), she said she'd email the problem to the team. In other words, they'll look into it.
I have no idea whether the problems will be fixed. But at least I tried. I can always call Costco again in a couple of weeks if they spam me again. Maybe if I call enough they'll get serious about helping me. And I can always call the chiropracter's office if I get another birthday greeting. On July 17, 2019.

I'm guessing it was real, SB got it at the Russian store.
SB is out on another work outing, a two-night camping trip. Starting yesterday after she got off work, and she will be home tomorrow before dinner. Yesterday she called BH and asked him to pick up dinner for him and me at El Rey Burro's. I got my usual, a veggie burrito (it is a huge burrito). Good stuff. About an hour after dinner we watched the final episode of GoT Season One.
Tonight, BH is going to get home somewhat late, his work buddy is performing in a band and BH wants to be there, at least for one set. I'm on my own for dinner and honestly I don't need anything big, I'll probably just have a cup of yogurt. We probably won't do any episodes tonight but I could be wrong.
Yesterday, I got another annoying Costco call, so, I called their customer service number again. This time the person who answered (Diane) said that the calls I'm getting are not actually coming from Costco, somebody is trying to run a scam operation. She said Costco is working on the problem, maybe they are working with law enforcement, we can always hope. Apparently the problem is local to Washington State. And I'm definitely not the only one getting the calls, Diane said she'd been getting calls all day from people with my same problem. Also I found out SB has been getting the calls, both on her work phone and on her cell phone.
This concludes my riport.

Snowbunny got home today I think a little before noon. She is working on laundry and cleanup and stuff. I think Brother-Husband is helping. And Snowbunny says, that the three of us will go out to eat tonight,
I'm assuming Snowbunny goes back to work tomorrow, although I could be wrong, she could have taken the day off to rest/recover.

We ended up going to a place called Red Lantern, a relatively new place in town that styles itself as "Asian Fusion." My favorite there is the yellow curry with the tofu, and I got that.
About an hour after we got back, BH and I watched the first two episodes of GoT Season Two.
SB went back to work today; BH is off (yesterday,) today and tomorrow. He is out somewhere at the moment, I'm not sure where. I'm just sitting here doing my internet stuff.

On Tuesday we watched two more GoT episodes. On Wednesday, BH and SB both got home late, and we did not watch any episodes. I think SB had some kind of doctor appointment, and BH had a tattoo consultation. (I think they're hoping to improve the appearance of the nickname on his existing tattoo.)
Today BH got home at about 5:00 p.m., SB got home about half an hour later. I don't know whether we'll watch any episodes. Yesterday, BH got a shiny new GoT T-shirt. With the sigils of House Stark and House Targaryen.
The bottom finally dropped out of the outdoor temperatures. I turned off all the A/C units and opened the windows. It's 71° right now. Temps will hover around 70° for the next three days. 75° on Monday. 80° on Tuesday, then the bottom drops out again. I like it!

We watched one episode last night, about a half hour after dinner. For dinner we had salmon, spaghetti squash, and potatoes, prepared by SB. While attempting to cut open the spaghetti squash, she sliced her finger. Bad enough to warrant stitches, but she is trying to avoid that and just wrapped her finger real good.
Today, I was playing with one of the cats, namely Lady, with her favorite toy, a short length of gauzy ribbon from ex-SIL's wedding. And Lady, forgetting caution as she does with that toy, swiped one of my fingers but good. Ow! It hurt for awhile, and I thought it would bleed more than it did, but it seems to be already recovering now. She nailed the edge of the fingernail, lots of nerve endings there. But I definitely won't need stitches.

It was a usual Saturday today: BH was working, SB was off. So, SB and I did our usual Saturday things. Sex (happens every other week), eating out for lunch (Jenny's Barnhouse), shopping (Walmart). Some weeks we watch something on TV, some weeks we don't. BH normally has Sunday off, but this time he has to work tomorrow. So, SB and I will (probably) watch something on TV while he is at work.
Oh and we walked across the street today, to where they've been having a Yelm Farmer's Market once a week. We didn't get much, just a few plum-like fruits (I forget what they're called).
Dinner tonight will be a salad. This concludes my riport.

Okay, it was a small salad, plus a piece of breaded fish, plus rice and steamed veggies (broccoli, cauliflower, carrots), plus slices of a kiwi fruit.
SB and I did not watch anything on TV today, but we did shop a little at Safeway and Sunbird. And got lunch at Burger King. SB got a veggie burger, I was bad and got a whopper.
Dinner tonight will be some kind of lentil soup, plus bread. I don't know if BH and I will watch an episode. He did get home from work at about 3:30 p.m.
