I am drinking some smuttynose pumpkin ale, which i think someone recommended on the nov. fucking 10 list and they had at fresh direct this week. mmm good. I just finished Youth of the Beast, can't decide whether to start another movie or go to bed.

movie!

i've seen the smuttynose pumpkin ale at the store. i'm a total impulse buyer when it comes to pumpkin anything, so i'm surprised i haven't snapped it up yet. but i've tried smuttynose before and found what i had a bit too hoppy.

I am watching the Clientele on Morning Becomes Eclectic. Earlier I went out for dinner at Prune because my uncle and cousins are in town. I had steak! and bitter greens! and wine! Alasdair has magic fingers. I went to see the Memling exhibition at the Frick. Eggshell skin, furs, long tapered fingers.

I went to bed early, and slept for ten hours.

I went out for a friend's birthday and accidentally ended up DJing to 500 people. I did see some really boring bands though.

Man, Jason Lee hosting saturday nite live was a big letdown...so unfunny.

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Sunday, 13 November 2005 19:49 (eighteen years ago) link

why do they call it pulled pork?

because after it's cooked, instead of slicing it, you literally pull it
off the bone with a fork.

And Jody's right: it's damn good.

I formed a punk band with my mates and now I've lost my voice.

Skipped the midnight screening of "Rosemary's Baby" ... but scored.

>Jason Lee hosting saturday nite live was a big letdown...so unfunny.<

So you are you unfamiliar with the last 12 years of SNL? I did tape it to watch Dave Grohl toss his hair.

I spent two hours of Saturday night sat on a cold platform at the wonderfully named Pokesdown station in Bournemouth, waiting for a train that eventually turned up and dropped me, not at Waterloo, but in the middle of Hampshire due to a broken rail.

Then I waited another two hours for a replacement bus, which took an hour to get me to Southampton, then there was a 30 minute wait for a train back to London, which took 90 minutes. I eventually got home around 10pm, discovered there was no beer in the fridge and that the offie was closed, so I took the dog for a walk, stopped off at a local chavpub for a pint and then went to bed.

Working on a Saturday night, not seeing the point at all.

Looks lots better than what I had. (Cold Wendy's spicy chicken sandwich, cold fries.) Wait, rice plus french fries?

damnit, my dinner's in the refrigerator, but now i want to order some middle eastern food

I was going to hang out with my roommate tonight, but now I'm extremely pissed off at him after finding out the past month he's secretly been keeping pet ferrets in his room fully aware that I'm allergic to animals with fur. He thought that it was worth keeping them secret and seeing if my allergies started to get real bad.

So now I'm waiting for someone to get off work so I can go do something else tonight. I hope it does end up happening. Otherwise I may just sit in my room and be pissed off all night. And I'm getting tired of refreshing ILX. (No offense, ILX)

― Mickey (modestmickey), Sunday, 4 December 2005 02:21 (eighteen years ago) link

That's not offensive. In fact, it's refreshing!

awesome saturday night in. watched twelve monkeys (yeah! also i just read oryx & crake! which echoed 'foundation' which i read just before that! how come these things always come with such perfect timing for me?) on tv, drank er whatever i could find (gin, rum, a bit of wine), generally revelled in not being out &etc. i get such a kick out of being in when everyone else is out...

― emsk ( emsk), Sunday, 4 December 2005 02:47 (eighteen years ago) link

i'm quarantining myself until i finish my personal statement and it's actually getting done.

I got out for a couple of hours to see Good Night and Good Luck, while the nieces were being put to bed. But now SVU reruns -- can hardly tell the difference from any other night of the week.

Wish I were in England where they serve rice AND chips with curry.

― Mitya (mitya), Sunday, 4 December 2005 03:07 (eighteen years ago) link

Wait, rice plus french fries?

there weren't that many fries. the rice was perfectly cooked though; i'm glad it was there. awesome cold weather food.

reading a 500-page book on string theory. it rules.

― geeta (geeta), Sunday, 4 December 2005 03:39 (eighteen years ago) link

i sucked it up and had my pesto, broccoli and garlic, yellow wax beans and tomato, and salad. watching LA Story while doing research.

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Sunday, 4 December 2005 03:42 (eighteen years ago) link

On boring Saturday nights when I want to go out but can't find anything to do, I don't let myself read a book. Even if it's what I kind of want to do. It's almost like admitting defeat to admit "This is my life: Saturday night and I am reading Dostoyevsky." Not that being on the computer is any better, or anything. At least I'm not just looking at porn on the Internet or something. Actually, I haven't done that yet. I'm going to go do that now.

― Mickey (modestmickey), Sunday, 4 December 2005 03:42 (eighteen years ago) link

there is an Ida Red in my future

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Sunday, 4 December 2005 03:45 (eighteen years ago) link

Just returned from Whole Foods: my dinner is wild mushroom and pecan soup, jalapeno cornbread, and cold sesame greens. I'm going to try to pick up around the house, and probably watch a couple of Curb Your Enthusiasm episodes on DVD later.

On boring Saturday nights when I want to go out but can't find anything to do, I don't let myself read a book. Even if it's what I kind of want to do. Man, I am so far behind on my reading, I don't know where to start.

Making green chile salsa, watching Unseen Cinema, drinking the champagne we bought for next week's party but decided is too good for our guests.

― Stephen X (Stephen X), Sunday, 4 December 2005 04:02 (eighteen years ago) link

I've got some mighty fine wine here, folks. It's been three hours and I've only had two glasses. Now that's some good shit.

― Vinegar and Artichoke Hearts (Bimble...), Sunday, 4 December 2005 04:04 (eighteen years ago) link

there is an Ida Red in my past

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Sunday, 4 December 2005 04:05 (eighteen years ago) link

i've got some pretty shitty wine here! but that's ok, cause the cheese is good and i'm on my third glass so i don't even notice the badness of the wine anymore :)

Loving/hating my boring Sat night. Hubby ill with bad cold and irritable as hell insist on walking out to video store because he can’t stand watching Sinatra movie on TV any more. Pizza from D’Vitas on the way. Ho hum, comfortable but BORING!!!!!

― Wiggy (Wiggy), Sunday, 4 December 2005 04:07 (eighteen years ago) link

Watched a few episodes of "Invasion", folded laundry. Researched online for suitable curtains for our back room [zzzzzzzzzzzzzz]. Made a batch of cornbread to go with Mr Vegemite's bbq ribs. Will prolly watch a movie tonight, maybe Mirrormask.

― VegemiteGrrl (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 4 December 2005 04:09 (eighteen years ago) link

the wine at the restaurant was inoffensive-if-not-revelatory. (xpost)

― The Great Pagoda of Funn (Jody Beth Rosen), Sunday, 4 December 2005 04:10 (eighteen years ago) link

pesto, broccoli and garlic, yellow wax beans and tomato, and salad.

You are speaking my language. Bring it on!

― Vinegar and Artichoke Hearts (Bimble...), Sunday, 4 December 2005 04:13 (eighteen years ago) link

ate bagels, watched Degrassi retrospective, napped, watched last week's nip/tuck, which was bad: no blood, no fights, nobody died. wtf. There is a party to go to, but that would mean, y'know, decision-making + effort. (and what could top Lady Sovereign last night?) jaymc, pls come to my house too and pick up around it b/c dishes need to be done and maybe some vacuuming too, kthnxbye.

― rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Sunday, 4 December 2005 04:14 (eighteen years ago) link

speaking of bagels, the baguettte i got was an everything baguette - all the seeds and garlic. i know it's not authentic, but damn, is it good!

I fell in love with Chateau de Campuget, Cuvee Prestige, 2001. So I ordered 6 bottles of it. This is the first one. They say it's supposed to be best in 2012. I can't even imagine it being better. Like chocolate cake, a little at a time. Also I really love raspberry chocolate cake. Anyone got any raspberry chocolate cake? Can you pass it over here? Thanks.

I had a dream about Bryan Ferry last night that totally cracked me up. I think we were on the "Love Boat" or something, you know, that old TV show? I'm actually not much of a Ferry fan, though I do like some Roxy Music a lot.

Wine sounds nice, but I think I'm going to make do with the last Sierra Nevada in the refrigerator.
