I tried Scrawler's trick to see your picture, but my computer wouldn't load it.  I'm sure you're outfit's super-cute, but what I really want to remark on is your profile informing us that cribbage is your favorite game.  Right on!

@avclub-02c1dd6ad234773aeffd7f7067784d58:disqus Whoa — I'd completely forgotten about George Dzundza (I'm on season 14 now).  Yeah, the cast really does improve as it gets away from the first couple of seasons…  Anyway, Robinette's the ADA played by Richard Brooks, before they changed the role from "ADA" to "Leggy…

@avclub-3be42d8a3412057f79af152555e39bd4:disqus The onion goggles are an extremely sexy look, so maybe you could convince Mr. Thrace that they'll ultimately be a Valentine's Day present for him?  (Wait, no — what's the opposite of "extremely sexy"?  Ah yes, "onion goggle".)

@LurkyMcLurkerson:disqus Oh my god, thank you SO much for that link.  That sounds just insanely delicious.

@avclub-32b63dd70d870580128d83e930199e1c:disqus That happens to me too.  Everything's going fine in the underwear department until all of a sudden they're all falling apart.  Which has happened in the last couple of weeks, but I've put myself on post-Christmas austerity measures so I can't buy anything until at least…

Hey everybody!  Look at this weirdo in the shorts and sandals!

Law and Order definitely picks up once they ditch marble-mouthed Robinette.  (Uh, spoilers?)  I'm in the middle of watching the entire series all the way through, and I loved the early seasons for how old the early '90s is.  I mean, look at those cars!  No one has cell phones!  It's like a gazillion years ago, but…

@avclub-d019eb089e65903455cc52308f00b997:disqus Oof, that sucks.  Your house is the same age as mine, so I know the feeling.  My house is a crumbling heap.  We did some fun kitchen remodeling a few years ago and it quickly turned into a totally unfun disaster zone as it was discovered that carpenter ants had eaten all…

@avclub-3be42d8a3412057f79af152555e39bd4:disqus And just like that, my resolve to learn is wavering.  Heh.

@avclub-3be42d8a3412057f79af152555e39bd4:disqus I think I got mine from Bakers Catalog a zillion years ago, but I was first introduced to the magnificent world of onion goggles by a friend who just used regular "7th grade science lab" goggles.

@LJo1:disqus You make a good point!  I just need to be more creative with meat opportunities!  (Also not a euphemism.)

This all sounds so delicious and cool to have been making.  2013 is so the year I'm going to learn how to homebrew.

Oooh, that sounds totally delish.  Do you have a recipe for the soubise, or is it something I could make up from your guideline here?

Hey Smacky!  How'd the tattoo turn out?

There are aspects I really love about home ownership (like the fact that I can do whatever I want to my house), but man, it really is a neverending stream of massive expenses.  (Like discovering last week that the power line feeding half of my detached garage got cut by the septic tank guys last fall, and we're only…

I'm more of a strawberry blonde, with individual hairs that range from coppery red (and very coarse and curly) to ash blonde (very fine and straight), so there's been a weird transition for me as my first white hairs are coming in.  I'll think they're just the ash blonde hairs, but realize they're wiry and curly and…

Very nice!

I'd managed to avoid that entire oeuvre until the hockey lockout forced me to turn to The Voice. Which I discovered I unabashedly love.  ::sobs::  The shame!  The burning shame!

Same thing happened to my sister.  I was actually really jealous, because I thought at 24 that being prematurely gray would be cool.  Now that I'm finally getting my first gray hairs at 36, and it doesn't seem premature at all, I'm a lot less enthusiastic about the prospect.

That's certainly the closest thing I've got to a workout regimen.
