Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I just made a not!Thai peanut sauce for dinner with almond butter, olive oil, garlic, soy sauce, and the juice of a lime. It was yum!

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

If life were like a Pelecanos novel, someone would gut-shoot the creep who burned Mr. Peabody...that's one of the things I love about the guy...his lack of patience with animal abusers and people who don't tip in restaurants. One character tried to stop Nick Stefanos from feeding his cat one time, and I thought to myself "Well, he's dead," and he was. Shot in the chest, if memory serves.

Oooh, my mom told me about the volumetrics thing after I introduced her to a chicken salad I made with chicken, granny smiths and almonds and only a little mayo or yogurt, plus salt and pepper. Don't know if it qualifies, but it is nummy.

Random compliment of the day. After I got dressed this morning, I asked Tom if I looked OK. He said "You look like one of Charlie's Angels." I hope that meant good, but it sure was weird.

Thrive to spite them

Sarameg that sounds like a Volumetrics recipe. It's a lot like the Eat This Not That but also relies on broth based soups and lots of fruit and veggis to fill you up.

For example the lunches I was having last week were : soup, sandwich, small amount of veggies, fruit.

And one of the dinner options (which I didn't eat) was pork chop, applesauce, asparagus, and baked potato.

And nothing is "forbidden" it's just a matter of portion size and also making changes to make things healthier.

Yay askye! I'm glad for you.

ION. It's morning again. Dammit. Everytime I close my eyes, I tell you, it sneaks into my world.

FYI, Shir "swing" can have a very different connotation in English, so I'd advise using "swing dancing". Unless you are going to a partner swapping sex party, in which case I'd say make sure that everyone uses protection

Heh. Shir, I had this problem with an ex, who asked me out of the blue on instant messenger "you swing, right?" and i had to be like "Um....you mean...dancing, right?" Luckily, she did mean dancing, and i agreed to go with her. Heh.

Now I want grapes. And cherries. I really want Ranier cherries to be in season and on sale already. Yum.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

This is the time of night when I keep typing stuff, deciding it's stupid, and deleting it.

edit: and somehow that statement I thought was worth posting. I think I'll have some fernet and watch Veronic Mars on WB dot com.
