Yup. Italian Americans often refer to pasta sauce as gravy. Try Uncle Jun's! (http://www.hbo.com/sopranos/cookbook/uncle_junior_sunday_gravy.shtml)

Discovery of the day: Mom visit+cardio class right afterwards= less panic. Yay. From now on, I'm going to do aerobics AT my mom's. While she's being nosy.

:laughing: My mom grew up in an Italian neighborhood and she refers to her pasta sauce as "spaghetti gravy." It's not bad when I can convince her to leave the bell peppers out of it.

I feel I need to post this somewhere. I split my ex's lip open last night. I've never hurt anyone before. I don't deal in this sort of ridiculous fighting drama. My life is pretty peaceful. He's the only person who I've ever really wanted to hurt, and who actually deserved it (yes, he of the stalking, abuse, "restraining order" thread, and the guy who crashed my bike drunk on my b-day, smashed my cell phone, and had just raised his fist to his lips and kissed it, as if about to punch me.) This was a long story, but I just wanted to say... I DON'T hit "like a girl." I had no idea I could hit a guy 2x my size and really make an impact. Honestly? It felt fuckin' great. I simply meant to show him I wasn't scared of him. I didn't mean to split his lip, but... I really, truly, do nOT feel bad about it. He'd broken my rat's leg, and Mommy-instinct (as well as that animalistic fight/flight) kinda kicked in. .... and that's that. Now I have a 200 dollar vet bill... of course he refused to pay it... some men should really not exist on this earth, other than in jail. WIth enough DUI's, hopefully he'll land himself there.
Grrr. I'm glad you hit him. Don't hurt the furbabies!

Eek, peppers? Mine consists of tomatoes, basil infused olive oil, parsley, garlic, and onion. A little salt and black pepper if it needs.

-Speaking of furbabies, old man cat has an appointment in the morning. I mentioned he has been drinking far more than usual last the last week or so. We've been keeping an eye on him, and now he's going into the litter box but leaving his butt out and peeing all over the front of the box/floor. Hopefully it's nothing, but it's better to be sure. His behavior is completely normal, other wise.
-Ah, Monday night. That means...wine time. Oh yes. These are the nights that explain why I found a few Dead Can Dance songs in my "80's Metal" folder.
-Some of the songs girls ask me to find for them are seriously WTF awful terrible in what alternate universe did you seriously expect me to play that badbadbad. Geesh.
-I discussed this with a drunken friend last night (while I made bacon on his backyard grill in South Philly at 3am!) - why have their been no movies of Christopher Moore books? We both found that surprising. Not upsetting really, since they'd probably fuck 'em up, but still.
-I think I'm going to make a Friendly's sundae run before the wine consumption begins. Maybe. I might just drunkbake a pie instead.

"Lamb" is one of my all-time favorite books. Possibly my favorite. WORSHIP Christopher Moore! "Bloodsucking Fiends" might be terrific too! Vampire movies are too goddamn serious lately.

Goddammit... the Yankees lost... now Torre and a bunch of free agents might be gone! I love Mattingly, but there's no way he is ready to take over for Joe. Who the hell else are they going to find to replace a guy who's taken the club to the post-season 100% of the time he's been managing, winning rings 1/3 of the time!?

I cant stop booty clappin. I also love scrubs and want to stop doing some of the things I do... I can't help it though. I think I might even have a DSM diagnosis... I should look it up.

Congratulations. You win the internets. If my parents would've walked in on me in high school, it'd probably just be more like "Umm...yea...the, uh...potatoes are ready."

-Cally. I walked in on my folks once. I was around 16. How to paint this. Uh...my father is a fairly unattractive right leg amputee. My mom is...my mom. Neither are particularly svelte. To make it worse, my Pop was dirty-talkin' my Mom. Crazy, icky, filthy porno dirty talk, too. They're good Mormons. I ran away, and about half way to my room started giggling hysterically. I know they heard me. I was actually more amused then horrified, because it was so surreal. My Dad came in awhile later and asked if everything was okay. I was all "Um..yeah. How are things with you?" ::gigglesnort:: *(I would like to take this opportunity to point out once again that I am adopted.)
-I'm fairly sauced, so I can say this. I really want to bite Paige's new icon.

Remember how I said I got that place?
Well when I walked up to SIGN THE LEASE the owner said he changed his mind, he decided to sell. He's not renting to me anymore. He also decided to not tell me this until I was already there with a money order in my hand to give to him for the rent. I spent $10 on that stupid money order... I think he owes me that much.
