OH, I'M SORRY. ARE WE KEEPING IT CLASSY TONIGHT? SHOULD I DISCUSS NERUDA? LET'S ALL TALK ABOUT FUCKING NERUDA.
Fun Neruda fact: "Pop band Sixpence None the Richer set his poem "Puedo Escribir" to music on their platinum selling self-titled album" In other news, Sixpence None the Richer went platinum. I'm going to go stab my eyes.
I ate pickled beets for the first time in a long time last night. Woke up at 3 am to pee and thought I had kidney failure. Was about 15 seconds from calling 911.
I love pickled beets. My ex's mother turned me on to them. I pretend that I'm a 60 year old woman whenever I eat them.
I have had a couple patients come in freaking about that they were peeing blood. Turned out it was beets. In other health news I racked my knee on the underside of a slate table so hard that it hurts me to bend it, I am icing it and had to take a pain pill that I have left over from a dental procedure about 9 months ago. I got up to walk to the kitchen to refill my wine and it hasn't stopped throbbing since. I am going to refer to it as a "brushing my dog injury", and it would really suck if this is the one thing to take me down.
You and Ms. Monroe should start writing a book together. Or a Twitter feed, at least. Long weekend and I have no plans, as it's my 'stay at home and don't spend any money, because you've been breaking your budget for the last three weeks' weekend. Just Stringer Bell, McNulty, whiskey and I enduring my temporary lifestyle of austerity. #firstworldproblems
Well, it appears that TIB has outsmarted me yet again. In the 7 Seconds in Heaven thread I tried to post the infamous xgatax and air force joe picture that I found floating around the net and I got an error message saying the message board has reached its attachment limit, or something like that anyway. I'm sure at least some of you know the pic I'm talking about and I probably deserve to get Thor's hammer rammed up my quivering sphincter for even thinking about it posting it. Well played TIB. May all you idiots have a pleasant Friday night, I'm off to donate some of my hard earned money to the casino.
"Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached." What is the board attachment quota and why can't I attach a ten kilo file?
Know a great way to turn yourself off french fries? Buy a fresh bottle of oil, and make them yourself in a frying pan. Then after a few batches, look at all the oil you've used, and realize that you may have well as just made mashed potatoes, or baked them, then drank all that oil straight. Hell, the laxative effect may as well have just cancelled out all the starches you ate. But make them properly and they're delicious. Russet potatoes, and fry them twice for fuck's sake.
The only time I buy pickled beets is to make pickled eggs in them. I always end up eating a couple slices after I take them out of their juice but before I remember that I don't like beets. I assume they only taste good if they're doused in salt (much like the pickled eggs).
My roommate just came home very upset because the girl he was certain he was bringing home tonight changed her mind as they were entering the subway station. He said he needed a hug, and then we both went to put our heads on the same side of the hug (if that makes sense) and we came extremely close to kissing and it was the most awkward.
Don't believe what the internet tell you. You can't fry spring rolls for shit. What an utter disaster. Drinking helps though.
Oh my lord, I went to the local Ale House after the gym and downed 20 wings, a bowl of clam chowder, and some chicken kebob things, plus 4 beers. I was hoping for plans later, but I basically rolled into my apartment and now I'm hoping I don't burst. Bad life decisions, go team.
