I'd like to request 8 more hours of weekend, please, if it's not too much trouble

So far today I have gone running, done the grocery shopping, cleaned the bathroom, and started on my first load of laundry. I am currently contemplating whether to try to get in some work or have this work week suck that much the more. It's quite the dilemma

My work hell is not on the same level as yours, but I probably should have gone in this weekend. But then a co-worker made a comment to me about turning into another co-worker who all she does is work and it was kind of a wake up call for me.

Of course, I also planned to go out this weekend and enjoy the weather and have stayed in cleaning, catching up on fic writing/posting, and finally tackling the DVR overload.

Claudia! BSG! WOO!

I know! I don't want to be that person either. But it has to get done at some point, it's just a matter of when.

Like you I spent the weekend doing those household chores that I can't avoid ... laundry (3 loads) being among them. The vacuuming and the floor washing will have to wait (again).

And, your lamb stew reminded me that I have 2 boned out legs of lamb sitting in my freezer. Since I'm not a very good stew maker, I usually roll up my butterflied lamb leg with pesto and roast it in the oven. Sometimes, I cube it up and do a curry with Maesri green curry paste and a can of coconut milk and serve it over a nice basmati rice in the style of a lamb biryani.

This Easter I'm thinking of marinating the lamb legs in lemon juice, garlic, oregano (Greek style) and serving it with roasted potatoes.

Of course, I woke up with a terrible headache so my energy level just sucks and it's back to work tomorrow, I hope.

This stew turned out really well--it was thickened with a pesto made of walnuts, pistachios, almonds, olive oil, and garlic crushed up in a mortar and pestle and that gave it a really interesting flavor.

I am so excited about CB on Dresden Files. I think she is so amazing. She and BB were the reasons I opted to give Stargate a try.

They're also the reason I started watching Stargate. In a just world, neither would need to worry about finding work.

Oh, say things about how Claudia was when the show is over. Yes? 8 ]

She was doing an American accent, which was rather odd when you're used to her regular accent.
