Mondays...
Okay. I deleted a post from my journal last night. And I'm already horrible with updating this thing somewhat regularly. So I figured I'd post a new entry to make up for it. Even if it is me talking about nothing in general.
I'm making dinner right now. As I do most nights. My brother doesn't cook. Like, at all. Maybe once in a blue moon he'll start up the grill. But usually it's me manning the kitchen. Tonight I feel kind of lazy so it's frozen, breaded chicken tenders... But I've had them before, so I know they're good. They should be done by the time I'm through writing this entry. Hopefully. I'm also periodically checking my green bean snaps, and baby red potatoes... I debated on making 2 veggies for like 5 minutes, instead of just one. So I'm frying potatoes as well now. And I have to keep an eye on them or they'll burn and the smoke alarm will go off, which will give me a headache. I don't do loud noises. That would also freak my dog out, and make her bark. Another headache maker. :P
Right, so the chicken is done already, apparently. *makes plate* I saw this really great cooking show earlier this morning. The chef was using "minced beef" which I now know just means hamburger meat... Silly foreigners trying to make ingredients sound more extravagant than what they really are. :P But it was a really great half hour show. *nods* I was a little distracted by the chef's cooking attire. Not that I was complaining. The Elmo boxers were nice to stare at. :P So I have no idea the steps of how to make what was being cooked. But I get the concept. 1) turn on stove 2) cook meat 3) serve :P Anyway... These veggies are cooked perfectly. I'm so proud. Nothing got burnt. *nods*
Okay... what else to talk about, while I stuff my face. I'm really looking forward to Halloween this year. Usually its my least favorite holiday. Little kids ringing your doorbell until the late hours of the night. Begging for candy. I like quiet evenings in, so having someone ring the bell every 10-15 minutes is annoying. But I wont be home for Halloween this year. Nope... I'll be out of town, meeting someone. Which in general, I'm excited about. I'm a people person. Or I'd like to think so. But this 'someone' makes it even more exciting. Because it's all new territory for me, in more ways than one. I realized somewhere in the last 24 hours that a lot can happen, contingent on this meeting.
I mean, what... there are scientific laws on this, so it's not like I'm making stuff up. Law of physics. Newton's law of motion. Every action has an equal reaction? Whatever. Chain of events. Fate. ...Okay, now we're going into beliefs. But regardless. I like science. :P I'm not making any sense... It makes sense in my head, but that's not helping all you people out there.
I'm finished with dinner. It's 6pm... I'm bored now. I forget what comes on TV Monday nights. I should check the TV guide. Lets see... Chuck; 90210, Dancing with the Stars.. So basically, it's a TiVo night. I think I'm becoming more obsessed with Australia. I mean, I was before. The Animals, the accent, the fact its a huge, fricken island. Now more so. No idea why. *shrugs* I catch myself singing "I come from a land down under," when I'm just in my own head. You know, 80s song. Anyway... I sing it. No apparent reason. I'm not from there, I've never been. Maybe soon? Who knows.
I don't know what else to talk about... I'm tired. Maybe I'll add to this later.
Peace.
