Just Watched “Sublime” Wow. Not for the faint of heart, that’s for sure. It’s got a very “Jacobs Ladder” feel from the very beginning, which kind of gives away where it is headed, but the trip it takes getting there is quite the trip. If you are squeamish about hospitals, sex, or blood, I’d probably …
argh…. I don’t belive this cold. It lingers seemingly forever. Each morning you wake up thinking it’s gone, until you try to move or get anything done. Then it’s back, dropping it’s hammer on your head. I don’t want it anymore. I just wanna get back to the gym and to be able to go …
like many folk, I was hit with the christmas cold of 2008. Since the morning of the 22nd, I’ve been sicker than a dog and alternating between lying in bed praying for death, or sitting up shivvering in a pile of snotty kleenex. By yesterday afternoon I was mobile enough to go grab a burger …
Yule was great. Much better turnout than I expected given the inclement weather. Many folk had to cancel, but I still had a full house. Many guests, much like the mulled wine and spirits were drunk, and much food was consumed. It was a grand feast, and was great fun. The deer done in blueberry …
Ok, deli, patissier, produce and smokehouse done. Also got new tupperware and some services, seeing as how mine mysteriously vanish every time my family is about… I rather suspect that my mom steals them and burries them somewhere. Aside from kitchen gnomes, which are a a very real possibility, there really is no other explaination …
Wicked. The local super valu was carrying pink hawaii and cyprus finishing salts. They normally cost a f*cking fortune, and are rarely something I buy. However, they were only 8 bux a tin at the SV, so I picked up a tin of each. Not much call of them at yule, but I am making …
Why is it so fucking hard for people to understand that an authorization is not a capture.& When your bank tells you on no fewer than 6 serperate occasions, and sends you the instructions in writing 8 times, and we send the instructions over 12 times, and have 4 hours worth of training for the …
sharpening knives, reducing balsamic, grinding pepper, refilling the various oils, making sure the cooking wine is topped up, making lists of ingredients, prepping tupperware, checking utensils, cleaning the oven, checking the fuses, getting the carpet cleaner topped up… tomorrow shopping for food and supplies. putting up the lights and decor, moving furniture. hmmm…need white truffles. …
Damnnit. Bit of a rushed late morning / early afternoon. I’m playing catch up. Sure enough, I couldn’t f*ing sleep until well after 7 am. The damn sun was starting to peek over the mountains and I was staring at the ceiling. I was just about to give up and get up, then I blinked …
