what exactly is it that ... ya do here?

i’m still not really sure what this blog is going to be about, or if i’ll invite family to come have a looksee or …??

for now, i’m mostly talking to myself.

or typing to myself.

and since my life is drab right now  (just the way i like it)

i’m going to talk about a few mundane things…

like… movies

we went to see Up in the Air tonight

it was good. and quite a “save” on Clooney’s part considering his last movie induced my sleep about 5 minutes in until 5 minutes shy of the credits

the movie is … pleasantly pointless.

but full of value

if that makes any sense at all

and it probably doesn’t

however… clooney is still very easy on the eyes

secondly…

day two of the “Digital Cleanse”

has gone fairly well. this might be easier than i thought.

although… my “job” keeps me at a desk all day

so i’m still very dependent on the internet to run my business

but as for the “cleanse”

i haven’t used my phone to text. surf facebook. twitter. etc

in fact, i took it a step further and discontinued the use of my favorite New App, Words with Friends

i thought my friends might be a little disappointed to not be in text contact with me

but they’re not. hmmmmm

food for thought?

of course, it’s day two. five left.

all in all – this is easier than i thought. the thing i want to do most is update my  Twitter Account.

i don’t really ever use facebook to look at people’s profiles. i link twitter and facebook and then watch people respond to my twitter updates

which are, in most cases, absolutely ridiculous

selfish, perhaps, but completely honest

today i realized it was saturday

about 10 hours into the day

and that highly frustrated me

i’m so off balance

i need a regroup

today was nice. nice with no phone. and no attachment to the WORLD, but rather limited to the people within close proximity.

the kid, significant other, and i decorated a gingerbread christmas tree

fashionably late, yes

but i assure you that is the LEAST of our problems here

for starters… one should always read the destructions when they are included in photo form on the box

since the SO has MAJOR lackage of kitchen supplies such as  MEASURING SPOONS

(because he’s a man and doesn’t bake … that’s his excuse)

i had to guesstimate how much water to add to the powdered sugar to make frosting

i overshot this by, i dunno ……….. a cup?

what’s the big difference between 1.5 tablespoons of water and a cup of water?

i’ll tell you:  it’s a 40 minute card ride around neighborhood stores – Walgreens, Target, the Asian grocery store, and finally…. Walmart

in search of a bag of powdered sugar

because the SO also lacks powdered sugar in his house

(for reasons, see above annotation)

why didn’t i give up? because i didn’t want to dissapoint the offspring by telling him we weren’t going to be able to decorate the tree

because i had been promising we’d “do it tomorrow” since a week before Christmas

we arrive home with said sugar

only to see that the offspring is not interested in making the tree anymore, now that he has the spoons of frosting to lick

the SO and i make this tree. and we find it quite humorous and embarassing in the same thread

yeah. we’re pretty “special”

after the movie, my cousin and i pulled out our recipe book to make pork chops for dinner

but that didn’t go as suggested. instead, we made up a recipe as we went along

and this is healthy. promise.

it’s a cumin-black pepper porkchop with a yogurt/marmalade glaze topped with a couple of pieces of cooked pineapple

mmmm

in the, unlikely event, that we ate too many calories… we worked it off by embarking on a 5 hour spring cleaning

mhm.

it’s now 5am. and i’m exhausted. and gonna go ahead and call this one a wrap.

want!

I’ve watched seasons 1 and 2, but I saw an episode from season 3 on Channel 7 the other night and now I want this boxset like crazy just to have a marathon! I miss 30 Rock. Tina Fey is freaking awesome. Oh, and damn you, Channel 7, for airing 30 Rock at midnight or whatever. *shakes fist* I am going to buy myself this once I get my pay, and it’ll be worth the 60 or 70 bucks it is. Looking forward to an evening of laughs once I get my hands on this baby.

Happy new year to everyone. It’s a day or so late but whatever, right? We’ve all heard the same thing over and over again. Hope 2010 will be as great as you want it to be.

Goodbye and take care.
