Man, I've had the weirdest dreams the last couple of nights. The ones last night included rescuing a bunch of children kidnapped by Gaddafi. Yeah. But the even weirder one had me as the kidnapped person along with a bunch of other girls and boys. We'd been snatched by this witch that used mind control to keep us all pacified. That was super ( Read more... )

I had some leftover red bell pepper from my last cooking marathon, so I played mad chef a bit and cooked it up with diced onion, carrots, and chicken in olive oil, chucking in just for shits and giggles (more the latter than the former *crosses fingers*) oregano, garlic powder, some butter, and Lowry's salt (I pray at the altar of Lowry's salt, ( Read more... )

So last week I started a re-watch of Doctor Who's season five via Netflix, but that kind of got backburnered because on Sunday something inside told me it was time to watch 30 Rock. All of it, or at least all the seasons available on Instant Watch. So I'm in the fourth season now, anxiously awaiting the arrival of Wesley Snipes. Don't tell me ( Read more... )

Ooooh. The Voluntary Butler Scheme. At Breakfast Dinner Tea. Buy it now, thank me later. Actually, that Amazon page doesn't seem to have the MP3 version, but iTunes does, though I can't seem to find an online page for it. Stupid Apple. Anyway, it's awesome- I heard Multiplayer on that one Dell commercial a couple times and knew I had to check ( Read more... )

Oof, long day. My boss was gone, leaving me to work on the initial stages of payroll all by myself, since she wanted to get a head start on it because of the short week coming up (payroll gets processed by the banks on Thursdays, but since they'll all be closed for Thanksgiving, and anyway employees leaving earlier than that would appreciate ( Read more... )

Sweet god in heaven that was the worst traffic I've experienced in my life. I made it out of work at 5:07-ish. Didn't pull up at home until 6:45. I don't think I did over 40mph for more than twenty minutes of that. Ten minutes. Jesus.

Anyway, on to the post I was going to make before that unfortunate event. It all seems rather stupid now, ( Read more... )

1. I caught my stepdad watching Top Gear today. All on his own. This possibly makes me happier than it should. It's like catching sight of a few birds at the new feeder you just set up- you feel all warm and proud inside, like you've done a Good Thing. Even better, it wasn't an episode I'd seen already, so that means I've got a treat in store ( Read more... )

Procrastinating from finishing the very last bit of my paper! Wheee!

Stolen from lanyiek. List a favorite movie for each letter of the alphabet.

I'm going to try really hard not to repeat her answers, because the ones she chose for the tricky letters were quite good.

Back to the Future (The second might be my most favorite)

Oh Top Gear... I adore you SO MUCH. Seriously, watching this show is the televisual equivalent of being wrapped up in a great big hug and gently squeezed just after you've finished laughing at a really good joke ( Read more... )

Wow, way to be lame, BBC America. Really, impressive. Got the fangirl itch tonight, so I decided to track down the Top Gear episode with CE in it. Turns out, I've already seen that episode, multiple times, on TV- with the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car section edited out. Arrrgh... *shakes impotent, defeated fist at heavens* I.. well... it' ( Read more... )
