I just made a new entry in the list of criteria for My Ideal Boyfriend: Foodie who makes food like Buffista men do.

Last time I changed the batteries my wii fit synched up pretty quick... after I spent ten minutes yelling at it and finally looked in the instruction booklet to find out I'd been doing it wrong.

eta: am I missing anything good on TV tonight?

Last episode of Colbert in Iraq?

(My cereal indulgence is Rice Krispies with a ton of sugar that sinks to the bottom of the bowl and which gives you a wicked sugar high when you slurp up the leftover milk.)

And it's still distinguishably sugar -- still grainy, I mean!

This is me, only with Raisin Bran. I thought I was the only cereal with so much sugar it never dissolves freak. My people!

Mac & cheese made with Velveeta is food of the gods. Not boxed Velveeta shells & cheese; homemade, where you boil the elbow macaroni, melt the Velveeta, dump the pasta in a baking dish, pour the cheese over it, maybe throw some handfuls of grated cheddar on top, and bake the hell out of it.

And here is where we part ways. I love Velveeta. I love mac & cheese. I don't love Velveeta mac & cheese. But that may be due to a vague resemblance to that Stouffer's Welsh Rarebit cheese sauce which my dad bought a case of at a Stouffer's outlet store, and then made us eat. Oh gawd, I thought we'd never get rid of that stuff.

Last episode of Colbert in Iraq?

omg last night with Tom Hanks & the puppy I almost choked on my dorito.

I just watched that! That was so random!

bc, you give up too easy. if wardrobe is locked, just get a sm! they has keys!

Oh, dear God. How do you handle your partner's family when, four years into your relationship with said partner, they still won't allow you to come out to dinner with the family because your relationship is a terrible shame on them all? (We're gay, for pity's sake, not criminals. Oh and apparently it doesn't help that I'm disabled. Yes, because I schemed my way into that one because I wanted their daughter to have to look after me. I'm evil like that. And the fact that I'm not Jewish is just the icing on the disturbing upcoming wedding cake...)

How do you handle your partner's family when

Set weapons on Ignore?

I mean, I know plenty of people who avoid their families-in-law for much less unpleasantness. Do you really want to have dinner with them?

Do you really want to have dinner with them?

In all my time going out with, and then being engaged to their daughter, I've met them exactly once. We have to get to know each other a little better than that, if they're going to stop abusing me to their daughter behind my back (or at least if we're going to persuade them to come to the wedding, which they're not planning to at the moment, which has upset my Girl terribly). I'd love to ignore them, but this is an Israeli family. This is a culture based around the family, and my Girl is *completely* devoted to her parents and siblings and sees/talks to them all the time. I don't want to upset her by getting in the way of that.

IBN: Sims 3 is much fun and a great way to waste a day off.
