friday night

i made red lentils with veg bacon. it would be vegan if not for the huge hunk of butter.

I wish I were home watching Parker tbh.

'sup

Yo

Tonight I violated one of my cooking rules and now I am grumpy.

what was the rule?

The rule is to pass over recipes that require one to manipulate each and every unit. Tonight's case: meatballs. With the exact same ingredients, I cold have made a tasty ragu/bolognese with 1/24 the hassle. See also: Sandra Lee cookie recipes, which has you use canned cookie dough, then have to handle each fucking cookie multiple times for various types of pre-made icing and decorations and shit.

I'm experienced enough as a cook that I should know better than this. I *do* know better than this, which is why I have a rule. Which I failed to follow. GAH.

:(

might be in for the night

my friends are driving me insane. i want to discontinue all social contact from anyone, everyone, ever and just hang out with my dog is that so much to ask

no, but i wouldn't recommend it! i'm sure after some point you'd want more

I left the North again
I travelled South again
I got stuck in fucking Solihull for an hour because the M42 was fucking closed and the motorway people are useless gits, I saw a man w'i no trousers
& I can't help the way I feel (really really knackered, bit hungry)

anyone

mr veg cooking hamburgers for dinner
am about to watch The Soup
and then at 9pm I will be listening to 2 comedians do a live radio broadcast of the AFL grand final of australian football because they're not televising it anywhere that I can watch for free and I get so fucking tired of trolling the web for streams that aren't full of malware, and footy on the radio gives me major nostalgia so it's all good

who's playing/who are we rooting for

Hawks and Fremantle *shrug*

I'm rooting (lol) for the Hawks but only because they're the melbourne team and I'm still kinda jingoistic about out-of-state teams, even though the league has been Australia-wide for decades

i'm sick with a cold and my bf went out to get me matzoh ball soup. he is a hero.

what a guy! srsly, that is love

who is your team? should i have said 'supporting'? i thought you were from melb

will the woman end judge/ref/umpire/whatever be involved? basically all i know of aussie rules comes from the mid 80s when espn could not yet afford other things

my team is carlton, they bombed out a while back

majority of AFL teams originate from suburbs of melbourne, back when it was the VFL. sydney was the first out of state team in the 80's. there's quite a few out of state teams now.

lady umpire was in last year, but i dunno if she's in the lineup this year

how do you feel abt shane warne

Started watching x-files - was not expecting it to be so fucking creepy

Had some deliciousssssss tacos, this short rib pastrami thing with cabbage. Now I'm lying in bed, reading Borges and listening to the 8-disc female-fronted punk collection

12-disc, sucka

u_u i am lame

i feel like shane warne was a fever dream brought on by the nation collectively eating a bad jar of pickled onions

when i was there it was his and justin langer's and some other dude's last hurrah at the ashes

langer srsly compared retirement to setting aside a mistress to return to his wife, but i canna get that article to render fully

what would you do if carlton played the raiders

i'd root for carlton; one elbow to the face & the current raiders would fold like a card table

do you know how to play bridge

nope

Pizza and a beer, fell asleep on couch. Woke up to police car lighting it up twenty feet from my daughter's window, calmed her down, watched last fifteen minutes of Argo (with Cranston!), and am now in bed.

Not bad.

listening to the house techno and drinking the beers

good on you for bumping this

i just went to bertucci's

bacon/pepperoni pizza

heavy?

i had pizza for lunch at this awful COLLEGE CAMPUS place that's been around forever, major dude zone, the guy at the counter calls everyone "sir," should be called Patriarchy Bistro. the slices were basically very cheesy loaves of bread.

I wish I had pizza. I needed a snack just now and all I had was wholemeal pitta bread. I put peanut butter and lime pickle in it (ty based nood)

lol @ patriarchy bistro

that sounds kinda good in a 'i'm pregnant' style

Tonight I'll probably slit my wrists and read some David Foster Wallace, not necessarily in that order -- or any order. The concept of chaos always appealed to me.

Someone cross-post/thread-connect this with the Society is in the gutter thread.

which i am so xp

did you see this when it happened matt?

Important Lime Pickle Poll

life-changing 1st post imho

what's up hexy?
