I have Karma Chameleon stuck in my head. Stan was watching Psych and started talking about it a couple days ago. I started singing it today and was just going, "Why do I have Culture Club stuck in my head?"

So, I've calmed down now. I have some names of psychiatrists outside of east county that accept Medi-Cal, so I'll be seeing them instead of Dr. Leiderhosen.

My sister's artwork! She's an awesome artist AND she has her 2nd magazine cover! She has drawn for Turbo Diesel Register twice now. When she was younger all she drew were horses. Everything was about horses, it was an obsession. Now it's all about trucks.

The end is the funniest part.

This is a recipe for aloo gobi, I'm going to put it behind a cut.

( Yummy food )

Aloo Gobi Recipe

1 small onion, chopped
1 inch fresh ginger, grated
1 hot pepper, finely chopped (you decide the heat)
2 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp garam masala
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp cayenne
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp turmeric
1/2 cup vegetable stock or water
1 medium potato cubed
1 1/2 cups cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets
1/4 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
1/4 cup pre-shucked edamame beans or peas

In a large saucepan on medium heat, saute the onions, ginger, hot peppers and garlic in oil until the onions are translucent. Add the garam masala, cumin, cayenne, salt and turmeric, saute for 2 minutes, stirring constantly to avoid sticking. Add the stock and potatoes and stir until well-coated. Cover with lid and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the cauliflower and cook for an additional 8-10 minutes. Stir in the cilantro and edamame, remove from heat, and let sit for 5 minutes before serving. Makes 2 large or 4 small servings.

You might realize you don't have enough wrapping paper to do anything beyond the board game so you stick everything else in a Christmas bag and hope no one notices Mickey putting a hat on a snow man.

Stan was doing something and I went up behind him, gasped and said, "This is sewious!"

He forgot that Ming Ming says that, but busted up anyways.

I need a shirt that says "I'm going extinct! Save me".

Since I haven't ranted about daylight savings time at all I figure today is a good enough day to do it! I woke up at 6:15AM, which means in my brain it was really 5:15AM. I guess I should be grateful that Elijah is spending the weekend with my parents (my step-mom is taking him to school today) and that Micah is still sleeping. OK, I'll be grateful for that even though I wish I had slept more.

LOL, I giggle whenever I watch this. Just shows how mature I am.

I hate it when people squeeze from the middle of the toothpaste tube.

Both Stab and Elijah do it and so I have a separate toothpaste tube from them, but someone squeezed from the middle of my tube. I am an unhappy camper.
