Today I made a super healthy dinner. Crepes, three forms of oranges (canned, fresh, and marmaladed), and half a bag of choco-chips, topped with a scoop of ice cream. This counts as healthy.

Damn, that sounds grelicious. I want some goddamned Ben & Jerry's right now, and maybe some cheese, but I CANNOT. My cholesterol is at an all time high (260! and my LDL is at like 180!), and I'm afraid that my doctor is going to try something retarded like put me on statins. I don't wanna go that road. I'm gonna do the Ornish Plan. I've been vegan before, I can do it again and also do lowfat in the name of heart health.

At least, I am going to do the Ornish plan to the fuck*ng nines, and after 6 months I'll have my levels tested again. If they're still awful, I'll see about going on meds.

Well... I mean...

You went to Ruby Tuesdays.

You're kind of lucky you didn't die on the spot.

Is that anything like this place?



Something about it just screams abdominal cramping to me.

[theinevitable]

um. Cloverfield was fuck*ng fantastic. It was intense in a way which was... wow. I am bad at handling really intense movies like that. Holy hell. will one of you come cuddle with me? I am afraid of the dreams.

I don't know if it was "good" or whatever. It was just... terrifying, and engrossing, and intense. intensity.

also it creeped me out that it was supposed to be occuring on my birthday.
also, the whole home-movie of dead people thing... creeps me out ridiculously. I am kind of afraid of the world right now.

...Wake up at 4 AM, dreaming about spreadsheets.  I suddenly have less than a week to get a whole bunch of crap done, including the last pages of a monstrous training document that's already past 50 pages.

Plus I thought that I was going to get a better position but then some guy stayed on that team that I thought was going to move to another team and so now I have no idea what's happening, and I'm starting to consider other options.

Now I will try to sleep for an hour before my alarm goes off.

PS: This is the Cloverfield monster:

Wow, weird.  I kind of like Ruby Tuesday.  At least, way better than Applebee's.  I don't go there all the time, but it's in a shopping center, so sometimes Mom and I meet there for lunch before we take my kid to Toys R Us. 

The one by my house is fairly newish, I guess?  I have eaten at one other Ruby Tuesday in another state and it was Far Less Good. 

I don't eat at Applebee's unless it's a Major Event and someone else picked the restaurant without consulting me. 

Then again, as we've discussed, I really like Friendly's, so...

[Nabubrush]

Last time I ate at anything like that it was a Shari's. They had a squeeze container of mayonnaise on the table that was labeled "no need to refrigerate'. That, to me, is a bad sign.

Yeah, me too.  I detest Applebee's, but Ruby Tuesday's salad bar is usually pretty decent.

I mean, shit folks, if you think chain restaurant fare is bad food then you really haven't had bad food.  Sure, it's mediocre and uninspired but it's not fuck*ng poison.  Every meal does not have to be a pinnacle of culinary marvelosity.  Lighten up, Francis.

I took enough immodium to stop niagra falls and ate some of that yogurt thats supposed to cure you. Looking good for the moment.

[AugustWest]

Awesome reference.

I'm going to apply this to the rest of my day in honour of the awesomeness of that reference.

Or, to put this in correct form:

Today I'm gonna lighten up, Francis.

Warren Oates is from Muhlenburg County, Kentucky.

also:
I forgot the part where... the best moment of yesterday was when I realized that the trailer I was watching was for Star Trek. It is not the one on YouTube that is the opening sequence from TOS basically... it was weird score-y music playing while sound clips about space exploration played (kennedy, neil armstrong, etc) and there were people building something...
and suddenly, there was some curve that just screamed MOTHERfuck*ng NCC-1701 BITCH and I freaked out... completely covering my mouth and gasping repeatedly... random guys in the audience started clapping and cheering.... my friends going "dude, are you fuck*ng kidding me, it's just Star Trek, didn't you know there was a movie coming out?"
HOLY HELL. it was about as fantastic as the Superman Trailer that I think is my favorite trailer ever (yes, I have a favorite trailer.)

Mann, I forgot how much I loved Star Trek for a significant portion of my life. I still know random facts from reading through the Star Trek Encyclopedia a couple of times.

Warren Oates is from Muhlenburg County, Kentucky.

Down by the Green River where Paradise lay?

I have no idea who Warren Oates or what the original reference is, but today I'm gonna avoid working by wondering how it is that the lyrics to songs stick in your head permanently, when I've probably forgotten 95% of what went on in my life back in the days when I used to sing that song.

[AugustWest]

Down by the Green River where Paradise lay?

That's the one.  The Everly Brothers and Merle Travis are also from there.  So is my dad.  Bill Monroe is from the next county over.

I'm with that - everyone loves Anthony Bourdain*, and he ate the ass out of a wild boar.

*Note: I have no idea if anyone even likes that guy. I don't know shit about him.

Not clicking. I'm trying to move on, dammit.

there's a whole in daddy's arm, where all the money goes.
