For dinner I ended up making linguine with chicken and peas, in a garlic and olive oil sauce with a dash of lemon.
Yeah, it was pretty good.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That sounds delish!
ita, do you ever read thrillers? I'm reading a Lee Child book, and thought of you, because there's always a fair amount of hand-to-hand fighting, extensively described.

As an English major, I'm pretty sure I should know what a Villanelle is, but I don't.
I had a massage this morning. You would think I would feel badly when the masseuse told me that it would take a whole other session to get rid of the knots in my upper back and shoulders, but I felt incredibly validated. ("See, I was really tense!") Even if he didn't get all the knots out I felt totally blissed out when I left. But of course then I ran into someone who totally harshed my mellow, and that set the tone for the rest of the day.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Why was mac up at 5?!!? so grouchy.
msbelle, I suspect he's communicating with Owen. O was up around 5:30 a.m. this morning, too. He pounded on our bedroom door, I woke up, bundled his ass back to bed where he promptly went back to sleep. Of course then I *couldn't* get back to sleep and spent my hours from 5:30-7:30 surfing aimlessly.
The b.org is dead at 6 a.m. EST on a Saturday morning, by the way.
It's single-digits cold as ass here tonight. I'm eating left-over birthday cake and watching SPN.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I missed the first part of Gallagher's careersex, lies?
Go forth and Netflix it. You may not like him but it's a good role.

Ha! I once had someone suggest I set up monthly appointments for a while.

Jesse, this guy did suggest that. And I am going back in three weeks. But our insurance only covers about 6 a year, so no monthly massages for me.
Also, because the session was completely covered by my insurance, I gave the guy a 25% tip.

Damn you and your communist insurance! I would love six massages a year!!

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I finally watched Bones: while I am glad Eps is gone, I have to say that both DH and I yelled at the tv a few times - first for Parker not being gaurded because , d'oh. and second, just before Cam cut into Ep's wife's skull - dh was snorting at the tv saying at the very least she would be wearing a full face mask - if not a positive pressure mask (OSHA regs have you use a pp mask for woodworking - so for any possible biologiacal hazards...)

This is my work insurance, not the communist universal health care. Heck it's not that generous--we're no Sweden.
Speaking of communist universal health care, I saw Kiefer Sutherland on Charlie Rose a while ago promoting the premiere of 24. And Charlie asked him about his politics. (Kiefer's grandfather was a politician and is considered the father of universal health care in Canada.) And Kiefer said something along the lines of "I won't go into specifics, but of course I believe in universal health care. And of course I believe that the wealthy have an obligation to look after the less fortunate. Some might call that socialism, but I call it common sense."
The next day I realized in that last sentence he was quoting his grandfather, and I have to say, I fell a little in love with Kiefer.
