I drink earl grey black, when I can get it. I used to put milk and sugar in it, but since I've started eating sugary desserts, I took out the sugar and then had to take out the milk. I think my parents are horrified.

This is exactly how I feel.

This gives me hope that I will one day be able to rock a long dress. Since I am a short person, I have trouble wearing long dresses without looking like I'm drowning, even though I love dresses like hers :(

Is it going to be a pizza party? :P

Talk or walk?

Fires in the Mirror was the inspiration for With Their Eyes, the only school theatrical production I've ever been proud to participate in (well, years after the fact).

Ah. I didn't know about there being other famous people named Dan Gilbert. I'm in molecular biology/neuroscience and a friend in psychology/neuroscience shared a light summer reading list she got from her professor. Stumbling on Happiness is the only one I got to, but there's more books for laypeople on similar…

I cook for about a week at a time, but I do get picky about my rice.

Yes, especially because I make an honest effort to be places, or let people know when I'm 5 minutes late. I often feel that I care about the plans I've made more than everybody else. I think people must call us "dependable" behind our backs. It's not a bad thing, but so very frustrating to be the most dependable…

It works until I find recipes for chocolate torte online, but I am also lazy and don't buy eggs very often, so all of that helps too. To be honest, I didn't know torte was a thing until a few months ago.

I hope you feel vindicated: http://jezebel.com/were-creating-…

Ooh, that sounds really good. I manage to keep myself from indulging in baked goods by not keeping flour in my apartment, and also because I apparently have limits on how much cream and sugar I can consume in one day without becoming sick O.O

:D

Stumbling on Happiness by Dan Gilbert was good. I don't listen to many audiobooks or read much nonfiction for fun, but it was great. Also, not a self-help book. (I detest those.)

Eeek. I had screens on my windows so I could avoid that. Perhaps octochicken1's suggestion will help?

This is crazy. I also do the Sunday cooking thing, but I haven't managed today (and am unlikely to do so). Luckily, I have a bunch of stuff in the freezer, but I was really hoping to make this.

I apologize; I've done it before and it's not fun at all.

Congrats!

Best of luck!

ha! "hippy-dippy" made me laugh.
