Oh! Guest star on Forever Knight had a familiarity. As I was googling, I realized that the damsel in distress du jour now plays Janet on Rescue Me some twelve years later. Looks like in the second season she plays a different character too, according to IMDb. I like her voice. Or, at least, I recognize it.

I'll wait and send the recipes when they are all writed up. I think there are five total maybe.

If you marry once in Canada and once in Massachusetts, say, that's one wedding per bride(zilla), and you avoid duelling SPECIAL DAYYYYSS!

Heh. And if you get married in California AND Oregon, and then they both invalidate the marriages, why, you'll just have to go to Massachusets and Canadia and keep at it until it sticks, by god! MANY dresses!

MANY dresses!

Can I be gay, now?

Mmm. I have tofu and mushrooms. They make my day better. Also, asparagus.

Sadly, I have not QUITE mastered the stir fry, so the seasoning isn't perfect. What oil do you people stir fry with?

Any vegetable oil with a tablespoon or so of sesame oil. I limit the sesame because it is a very strong flavor, but it's what makes a lot of dishes taste more Asian to me.

Yeah, I think I did too much sesame oil. Also, definitely need to do more water than is suggested on the bag for my brown rice, next time, it was a little crunchy.

Still good, though.

I'm new to tofu cooking: any other suggested ways of preparing it? I've decided I like it quite a lot, and it's much easier to deal with than meat, so I may go mostly veggie in house, until I get access to a real kitchen anyway.

If you've got a grill pan or a George Forman grill, you can slice it, marinate it in almost any sauce, and grill it. I've seen some recipes that put barbequed tofu on a sandwich, but the texture is a bit too mushy for that to me.

Argh. Must clean my apartment. See, I should've gone to work today. And instead, slept in very very late. Which gave me a headache. And I have people coming over tomorrow. So I need to clean today so I can go to work tomorrow. Hmm. (Also want this damn headache to go away so I can go out dancing tonight)

I know my apartment will make me happier when it is clean. Why is it thus so hard to convince myself to do so, instead of randomly surfing the internet and watching endless Law and Order?

Heh. You're not going to like the weddings in either of my novels, dear. Very quiet, rushed affairs, both of them. We're talking best clothes the couple already has on hand, local church, just the vicar and enough witnesses to make everything nice and legal.

I don't have a problem with that. I'd rather see that, if it means an end to the bridal-industrial complex as we know it.

Weddings are just too damn out of control in America. What's wrong with the small church/courthouse wedding followed by the wedding party retiring down to the pub for beers?

Oh, wait, wrong country.

Annabel's dancing to the Dead Milkmen.

And she has rhythm... more than you can say for the Milkmen.
