*gags*

My grandma and my mom used to both make tripe, you can get it in a can, although it's hard to find nowadays. It's pretty good fried, that's the only way I've had it, but it's kind of chewy and stringy. I haven't had it in years, although I don't know if I'd be able to eat it anymore.

So who's the anonymous source that sent Carrie that recording? And who was the woman upstairs in the house the President Elect was whisked away to?

Took a road trip to Athens with a friend to visit another friend. Met up with more friends and went to a couple of different breweries. Went and had dinner and drank even more. One friend started yelling at the other one about her "passive-aggressive bullshit" so that was fun. They made up I guess (I excused myself…

Then there was the plotline where that video cost a bijillion dollars to make and it was like WTF ARE Y'ALL SPENDING MONEY ON? THIS IS THE CHEAPEST-LOOKING SHIT EVER!!

John Waters is a national treasure. I will fight anyone who tries to argue otherwise.

A pedestal is as much a prison as any small, confined space.

I like How to Get Away with Murder a lot. It's fun and entertaining and hardly ever boring. That's really all I need from TV. That being said, my main problem with it, is that despite it doing a few things outside of the box, it's still very network-y, if that makes sense.

"Those meaty paws! I feel like I'm dating George 'The Animal' Steele."

I suppose if anyone can make me tolerate Adam Driver, it's Soderbergh.

Breakfast at Tiffany's
Remains of the Day
Gilda (not exactly romantic, but definitely sexual)

Warren Beatty did a Howard Hughes movie??

I'm friends with all my exes, apart from my husbands.

Ah, the long-lost days of terrible wigs and oversized sunglasses as disguises on talks shows.

TELL ME THERE'S NO OTHEEEEERRRRRRRRRRR

Heartburn. Awful, awful heartburn.

I'm going to a step class after work. Then tomorrow, I have Tabata Bootcamp. I actually like the structure of classes, but I don't get to watch a show or listen to podcasts like I do when I do the treadmill or bike or weights, so I feel like I'm falling behind in stuff.

After having nine cats at one point, I am down to one after having one put down a couple of weeks ago, a big fat grey and white tabby named Cowboy. He's very lonely these days and wants to be fed an awful lot. I'm sure he would like a friend, but I'm ready to have my house be clean for a little while.

I made a Valentine's Day dinner on Sunday, since I'd have more time and I made Leek Risotto with Scallops and Brown Butter Sauce. My risotto was kind of mushy, it got overcooked a little bit, and I didn't get the sear I wanted on my scallops and overall, it was a VERY pale dish. It was OK, not great, but it was edible.

Going to New York at the end of March to see Sunset Boulevard with Glenn Close on Broadway, which will be a pop culture highlight of my life.
