Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Birthday Happies to Kat!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I had all of the windows open last night, and this morning I was actually cool, and had to grab a blanket. YAY.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's the Times food section. I think they're generally at least eye-rolly. Oh, speaking of Manhattan food, I CANNOT BELIEVE how everyone is kissing the ass of Degustation. I was not impressed. It's even in the New York Magazine Cheap Eats list! That shit is not cheap!

Who in the hell adds salsa "for brightness"? And if they are referring to something other than color, why in the hell not just say spice or heat, which, you know, makes sense?!

People should not tell me "you're late" when I come in at 9:45. (I usually get here shortly after 9, honestly. But when I don't? I still work my hours.) Especially if I know these are people who are here at 7 and gone by 3:30. I'll just start telling everyone you leave really early. Bitch.

msbelle:

I started at CBS as a "CBS This Morning" intern in 1989 with a little lady called Julie Chen. Julie now anchors the morning show, is Mrs. Les Moonves, and hosts our beloved Big Brother. We didn't discuss "Big Brother All Stars" at dinner, but I went home and watched it after dinner. I am obsessed with Jase and what a jackhole he is. Every move he makes bugs me. Every bone in his body makes my skin crawl. Sometimes I email Julie hate-mail about Jase just because I feel like I have an outlet. She remains ever-diplomatic on the subject. >[link]

That was one of the things that made my eyes roll. I particularly loved the undercurrent of, "it's not an authentic taco unless you use expensive ingredients." Oh, really? My ground beef mixture in the freezer called, it said, "fuck you, Mark Bittman."

They don't need to be expensive! You just run out to your local mexican market and get the abuelita there to pat you out some tortillas! Then you whip up some carnitas! Peasant food!
