1.) Get searches out.
2.) Read.
3.) Locate and watch appropriately escapist movie; extra points given if it does NOT contain Gael.
4.) Flop onto guest bed like unto sloth. Rouse self only, and to near-hysteria, if suggestion is made that a l33 might want to do something else.
5.) Try very hard to not think about smoking.
6.) Remember: there's only four work days left in the week, and you're way behind! Have a nice evening. :D

A Letter

Dear Lee,

You may make cookies and curl up after you a.) get today's efforts out and b.) return your hideously overdue movie to the video rental place.

Also, if you already want to watch Amores Perros again, perhaps you should just consider slapping it on the ol' Christmas list. We all know that you're just going to fastforward and rewind to the parts where Gael has his shirt off, because you are gay for him like that.

No love and scant tolerance,
Lee

First, some whining about Teh Pretty. )

And now for something completely different, by request from [livejournal.com profile] dethorats: the H***** family's age-old pretzel recipe, which I think Mom actually clipped from a newspaper or sommat sometime in the late '70s or early '80s. This recipe can also make two loaves of rather good bread instead of 20 pretzels; if you do that, increase the cooking time to 30 or 35 minutes.

pretzels omg. word. )

Time-consuming, but deliciously worth it! :D

I don't think I have had an actor!crush since I was about thirteen or fourteen, but I rented Amores Perros over the weekend and have now decided that I need to watch as much of Gael GarcĂ­a Bernal as possible. In fact, I rewound at several points hoping to get a clear shot of his ass, but no luck. Worst of all, my brain developed an internal monologue about halfway through: "Oh noes! Don't kill Gael!" and "Run, Gael, run!" and all that sort of thing.

This segued into the following conversation with my sister, because you all want to see me acting like I'm fourteen years old. )

In non-Gael related news, I mostly watched movies and baked this weekend. We now have chili, bread, and pretzels. HURRAH.


*X-chan and I have this rule that if you yell, "TOM CRUISE KNOWS THE HISTORY OF PSYCHIATRY!!!!!" in the middle of an argument, you automatically win. There is nothing that your opponent can say in response to this. Works best when coming totally out of left field.
