I'm looking for a sacred hand, carve into my stone
Following the theme...
Yesterday, I followed my plan of ducking out of work at noon. During four hours, I took 24 calls Over the 17 that everyone else has been doing. I also filled not one, but four cardiac CTs, and a pacemaker MRI spot. In short, I busted my ass.
After I finished, I ran up to Sam's club and got 4lbs of butter and some spinach and some other stuff. I desperately needed the butter to make the loaded potato soup.
I relaxed for a while in the afternoon, and we finished season 1 of Reacher. It was deeply satisfying, and I enjoyed it immensely. Next up, Daredevil, episodes one and two. I'm already spoiled for one deeply traumatic event near the beginning, so I'm ready to face the show.
I'll probably wait to watch season 2 of Reacher, because of the weeklong Amazon blackout starting tomorrow. I'm going go do my damndest not to use them, but it's tough. I've never used any of the other music services, so that's going to be difficult. I guess I'll just have to listen to the radio.
After/during Reacher, I got to work on our soup, first sautéing bacon, and then onions and garlic. Then we added the flour and butter and made a lovely roux. Next up, milk and chicken broth. Then seasoning. It had no where near enough flavor, so I added two big dollops of Sam's Club Chicken broth, which bumped it up a bit. It simmered for an hour, and then, I turned it off until my sister got home. There was also a sourdough loaf that they referred to as a "bread bowl". I don't know who that would be a breadbowl for. It could have held half the damn pot of soup. It made nice slices to dip in the soup though. It turned out pretty well, and topped with a bit of cheese and bacon, it was lovely. Recipe below.

Tonight it's leftover pork roast, and some sort of vegetable. Then tomorrow, I'm going to make some spinach feta pasta. I'm debating on whether to slice up a chicken breast and add it into the pasta for a little more protein or if the feta will be enough.
I have the weekend off--no work and only 1 game that I'm running and 1 that I'm playing in.
We had a fun game of Blades in the Dark last night. I introduced a couple of plot lines, for future games, and they're on their way to finishing the current heist.
Okay, time to go forth and grab a shower. I'm feeling icky and itchy, which means it's probably been a couple of days. In the winter, I try to do every third day to give my skin a break, but if I go over, my body lets me know. Everyone have an amazing Thursday!
