Cheating at bus-riding
Jun. 5th, 2008 11:44 amToday I walked around the corner of my building to see the bus leaving my bus stop and driving out onto the street. I had about a moment's hesitation before I hopped into my car and drove down to the next complex on the route, Tivoli, parked there and took the bus as it paused for its last stop.
Next week we're studying musicals in Theatre Survey, and apparently among other benchmark musicals to be discussed, we will be talking about two contemporary shows in particular: Les Miserables and Rent. It pains my little Renthead-loathing heart to hear my favorite and least-favorite-totally-overrated show spoken in the same breath. I would have put least-favorite with no reservations, but that kind of loathing I reserve for the Billy Joel musical and Li'l Abner. The Billy Joel musical is the kind of badness that you can't describe, and every number is more ludicrous than the next, including when murdered soldiers in Vietnam stand up to do a dance number. I honestly wish I were kidding. It was the worst shit I've ever seen on a stage - except Li'l Abner, WHICH I WAS IN.
I've been in an insane cooking mood this week. It's a shame and a blessing, because I'm trying to save money by not going out to eat. But I'm also trying to save money. So I shouldn't be buying more groceries. As indicated a few entries ago, I did make pierogies. 40 of them. About 2/3 had potato, cheese and sausage, and the other 1/3 had only potato and cheese. Bryan helped me roll out the dough, otherwise it would have taken me hours and hours. I mean, even more than it did anyway. I had some that night, two of them for lunch the next day, and then last night I brought about fifteen or so over to game night and fried them up for people to eat. I was thinking tonight that I wanted to make Swedish meatballs, since I have the ground chuck and the mix, but not enough egg noodles, but then I saw this recipe, and HOT DAMN. I may have to make a grocery run to get supplies for that. I don't know though - I should probably wait until my dad comes up to swap credit cards with me so I can con him into buying some groceries. Tonight I might just end up making my lazy pork barbecue again. Not that it's not good, but it's lazy. And easy.
