I'm bored, can't decide what to do with myself. BF is at work. I went into chat but had to leave immediately, for good reason, you know what it is.
Should I?
1. Go to a russian rock festival
2. Read a novel
3. Rent a movie
4. Head to the office and catch up on load of work
5. Other
I've already masterbated and eaten, don't feel like drinking, and don't want to go downtown and deal with rookies AND sxsw.....
Advice?

I just made the most delicious mac & cheese. In honor of St. Patty's a-coming up, 'tis "Black & Tan Irish Mac & Cheese". You boil the pasta in lager and add stout to the cheese sauce.
MMMmmmmmmMMmMMMMmmMMmmmmMmmmmm.
I'm gonna miss carbs when I go back to being unpregnant.

But I have more than enough stored energy for a silly little 5K. No need to carbo-load tonight. :)

OMG! I've made them too! Chocolate cake with Guinness is amazingly good. (Many things with Guinness are amazingly good.) I made them with perfect off-white frosting on top, just a touch of Bailey's in the mix, and baked them in a popover pan so they'd look just like little pints! Shamrock in the "foam" optional.

Black and Tan Irish Mac and Cheddar (http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,1977,FOOD_9936_129747,00.html)
Recipe courtesy Autumn Clements, Amelia Island, FL
6 cups water
24 ounces lager beer
16 ounces rustic shaped pasta (Ziti)
1 cup whole milk
1 cup half-and-half
12 ounces evaporated milk
5 tablespoons lightly salted quality Irish butter
2 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground dry mustard
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1/3 cup stout beer
3 ounces shredded smoked Gruyere
8 ounces shredded Irish Cheddar
1/2 cup bread crumbs, Japanese panko, or fresh country white
1/2 cup crisp cooked apple wood or maple bacon crumbles
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves or several sage leaves for garnish
Place water and lager beer into a 4 1/2 quart or larger saucepan over high heat and bring to boil, add pasta and cook until just al dente. Drain and keep warm.
Meanwhile in 3 quart saucepan, over medium-high heat, bring the milk, half-and-half, and evaporated milk just to a boil, keep hot. In a 4 quart saucepan, over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter and stir in flour until it begins to color slightly, whisk in hot milk, mustard, salt, cayenne, and stout, and bring to a strong simmer. Reduce heat to low and stir in cheeses until melted. Place pasta into serving dish and pour the cheese sauce over the pasta.
Place remaining butter in a large saute pan over medium heat and stir in bread crumbs, stir until golden brown, stir in bacon crumbles. Spread mixture over top of macaroni. Garnish with cilantro or sage leaves.
Ta dah!
(I omitted the bacon and it was still delightful. Do as thou wilt.)

I'm thinking about going to the store to get the most random foods. I want an avacado, artichokes, brussel sprouts, and stuff to make a stirfry.
Trying to resist getting into the car. But I REALLY want that stuff.

You don't work Friday nights or use computers on weekends if you're Orthodox or very observant. I'm not that observant. I take my purse to synagogue because I'm not that strictly observant, but I know how you feel. The first synagogue I went to when I started conversion was conservative, and there were a lot of rules I didn't know about yet. I struck up a conversation with a nice couple and they mentioned they were looking for a babysitter, and I volunteered (I was 18 and unemployed), and I told them we should exchange phone numbers and asked for a pen. The guy just gave me this icy expression and said, "We don't write on Shabbat." Oh. Sorry. :-[
I think it's awesome you were so warmly received at the Rabbi's house, that's terrific!
THAT explains why that weird yenta remembered my address by heart and the Rabbi told me to e-mail him my details after Shabbat!!! I didn't even suggest the pen, thank G-d.
So great, I found a very welcoming Orthodox synagogue. D: I like the people so much. Darnitall!
I don't know how they're NOT gonna find out I've been working Friday nights. :/
Luckily women don't HAVE to go to Synagogue on Shabbat so if I work super late I can just kinda...avoid... that conversation.
I think the other unmarried Rabbi likes me. Like, a lot. He keeps winking at me and smiling at me and telling me all these nice things and he even made everyone bring out the snacks and biscuits after prayer and everyone was like 'wtf, why did he do that, it's not a holiday'... I am fairly certain he did it for me because he grinned like a kid in a candy store when I helped set it up on my own.
Rabbi wants to date me. :O

Ok.....I have to say this is pretty damn funny to me(maybe because I've taken 2mgs of my new fast acting xanax stuff!)
We ordered Pizza Hut online. Theres a box where you can fill out "special directions" for the delivery guy. So I wrote "knock 3 times and say SHENANIGANS"
I just want to see if they actually read this stuff. If he does it I will tip him extra because it will crack me the fuck up!!!!

You should keep an eye out for the delivery guy and have a video camera ready when he knocks just in case!

RoseWhite... OMG. That mac and cheese sounds incredible! I will be making that very soon! Thank you for sharing. Guiness is definitely glorious, I will be cooking corned beef in it at K's request on Tuesday for a brief departure from vegetarianism. My boy wants cabbage and potatoes and corned beef simmered all day in the crockpot with half a can of Guiness, then that is what he gets. I can use some more of the Guiness in the mac and cheese!
And ha ha ha, the Rabbi wants to date the stripper! There's a screenplay in that, by G-d!

Sweet another election I forgot/couldn't be bothered voting for. I wonder what my excuse is going to be when they try and send me a fine this time. I used up 'abducted by aliens' last time. Hmmm. It's hard to be creative on a Sunday afternoon on an empty stomach.
I'm stranded at home with no food.. but I just found forgotten bunny (A easter bunny my bf bought my last night I half-ate in my sleep).
Mmmm. Forgotten bunny tastes soooo good.

I'm not a Violent Femmes fan at all...I don't hate them, but I don't like them much either. I really don't understand why that song just got stuck in my head this morning, but it's been in my head all day and I've been playing every catchy song I know to get rid of it, and nothing's working!
Thanks for passing the Femme bug on, Yek!
I heard "Blister In The Sun" :sun: at 5:45 each morning for the entire month of April 1988 because my roommate in rehab (I cleaned up at the Cedars-Sinai CDU, aka "Club Head") was a Violent Femmes fiend. Now, it's looping around between my ears like I never left!
