Sigh. So this week has really been dragging on since Wednesday. I guess I just don’t like doing the same thing for more than a couple days in a row (moreso at work than in my personal life :P). Can’t wait til 4:00 rolls around.
Due to lack of good TV, I’ve been watching the Food Network a lot, mostly “30 Minute Meals.” It’s given me some good ideas- on Tuesday we had hazelnut-encrusted chicken and tonight we’re having a bacon-potato-broccoli frittata. I wish I had a big, stylish modern kitchen with lots of gadgets, double wall oven, nonstick pans that were actually nonstick, multiple decent-sized cutting boards, beautiful real dishes, and a well-stocked pantry. Just like on cooking shows, minus the camera. Sigh. At least I can play with the kitchen stuff Ryan got for Christmas- food processor and crock pot. We already used the crock pot last weekend because for some reason those with a Y chromosome are obsessed with pot roast, and we’re probably going to use it again tomorrow to make Dino BBQ-style pulled pork. I already told Ryan what he must get me for my birthday: all I want is filet mignon at home, just like that time in December.
After all that controversy, the local radio station dropped Howard Stern completely. You have no idea how boring this makes my mornings at work. No, I do not want to hear that Nickelback song for the seventeenth time in three hours!
