I hate writing.

I also hate my cats right at this moment.

However, I do not hate the yummy roasted aparagus and roasted brussel sprouts with dill and paprika that I made to go with dinner.

You need an attitude adjustment about writing. Get to work!

Also, I'm curious, on the terrorism alert why Barrett rates Orange to Joe's Yellow? Is it cuz he's still alive? I keep thinking they'll find Joe somewhere. And Jack will finally realize, as Sam starts falling for the prettyboy, that he needs to ACT!

And what puts Narim higher than Martouf? I mean, there's that whole my former symbiote was your symbiote's mate thing... But then again, we KNOW Martouf/Lantash are dead, and there's that niggling hope that Narim is out there somewhere, too...

Just curious.

Oh, and why do you hate your cats? See, I'm not a cooked-green-vegetable fan, so I'd take the cats over the asparas... Hard to snuggle a brussel sprout...

Going to bed now!

You'll have to as MV about the rating system, as that was her creation.

And I hated the cats because they were being rambunctious and irritating in an attemnpt to get fed way earlier than feeding time.

What have they been up to? [the cats]

Paradox is on special diabetic food to manage his blood sugar, and I can only get this food from the vet. Well, they only had wet food last time I bought it, and it had turned the cats into overblown charicatures of their usually whiny selves at feeding time. They were being completely obnixious hours before feeding time.

But we're back to dry, and they've calmed down a little, so they're off my shit lift for the moment.

What a waste of good dill and paprika.

Just think of it as a dill and paprika delivery system.

Make the cats write. They owe you.

I'd be afraid of what they'd come up with.

Some possible titles:

"How to Live With a Madwoman"

"Coping With Bad Movies"

"Spillage and You: How Your Mistress' Accidents Can Benefit Your Life"

Oh, wow.... Something someone likes that I actually COULD eat... That sounds really good. Got a recipe perhaps??:)

And sorry about the cats.

Reciple is perhaps an exaggeration. All I did for the brussel sprouts was clean them, and cut the larger ones in half, mix them with about 2 tablespoons of olive oil, some paprika and some dill, and then spread them out on half a cookie sheet. In the oven at 400 for ten minutes.

Meanwhile I prepped the asparagus (same deal with the olive oil and spices), and when when the ten minutes were up, spead the asparagus on the other half of the cookie sheet, and both brussel sprouts and asapragus back in for another ten minutes. If you want them really well done, kick it up to 500 for two or three minutes at the end, but watch realy closely, because they will burn.

And with lightning speed she finally manages to say--"Thank you!"

Much appreciated! My diet is so hopelessly plain these days, to me, this actually IS a recipe, and I'm quite looking forward to trying it. Thanks!
