Whew.

So far...

Went to the gym.
Deposited checks.
Sent more more resumes.
Primed and assembled more Tyranids.
Picked up ingredients for potatoe/cheese/chili soup.

Soon to do:
Prepare and eat soup.
Shower and relax.
Go out for dinner, and perhaps dancing.
Read a lot of political posts in my friend's journal, there are a LOT of entries in there.

A mundane, if pleasing day so far.

The soup is on!

I'm lingering now over a bowl of potato and cheese soup, many thanks to Eeyrg for the recipie.
This dinner was a workout all by itself. Lots of chopping going on: peppers, onions, tomatos, garlic to be pressed , potatoes peeled and diced!

It's been a while since I've cooked something that involved, but it was rewarding. I really enjoy cooking. Preparing all the ingredients, following the recipie, taking all the individual ingredients and making something better than the whole... it's a lot like casting a ritual. Or troubleshooting computers. Or painting. Because in the end, all of those activities leave you with a finished product. Something that you have created, that you can be proud of.

*rolls shoulders, streches his neck* Time for that shower now, and to get the rest of my evening underway.

Awwwwwww baby.

So, I'm suddenly in the mood to dig up some righteous funk tunes.
I've got Jungle Boggie, Play that Funk Music White Boy, and We Got the Funk.

What else do I need?
