Watching This Means War. This movie is psychotic on so many levles. Like psycho enough to love, and then enough to freak me out. I wish they were sowing the boy on boy ending, though, given that all the endings are basically equal.

I actually bought the DVD, I liked that movie so much. Though I disliked the ending in theaters. Hrmph. Also, I wanted her whole wardrobe in that movie. (And to look like her in it, but...)

I'm sure Entergy has many faults, but since the outage was confined to the Superdome, the odds are in favor of a problem with Superdome equipment. My wild-assed guess is that the Superdome maintains its own substation and a transformer blew. They may have underestimated power usage.

Those lighting systems can power down occasionally. Happens at race tracks. They have to reboot the system. I mean, those are crazy lights and it's not like you get a lot of chances to test the systems in the real world. I mean, someone's probably having to explain things and it looks really bad from a PR stance but I've seen them go down at races more than once. Actually more than once in the same race. So it could have been worse?

Which isn't to say that Entergy doesn't have problems.

I had creme brulee failure today. I made a kick ass creme anglaise though with a burnt sugar topping. I am hoping the leftovers I left at the folks actually set and they can have a nice dessert tomorrow. I don't know if doubling the recipe was my issue or my lack of paying close enough attention. Nothing like failing with an audience.

Creme anglaise with burnt sugar topping sounds too delicious and fancy to be failure, even if you meant it to be something else.

Did this involve a tiny blow-torch, Cassiepants?

Having fire on tap is awesome. I even shared! I let my Sister-in-Law wield the tiny blowtorch for a bit.

I am consoling myself with this. I mean, it was creme anglaise and I was encouraged to wield fire. Cannot be a bad day.

I love how everyone on Facebook was making Superbowl posts, except for Jesse, who was posting about Downton Abbey.

Well considering Lord Grantham was her prom date...she may be a little biased.

Half of my feed seemed like people saying, "I think I'm the only person who doesn't care about the Superbowl!" Do those count as Superbowl posts?

I had fewer of those than you did, but those count, too.
