writing books, life imitates buffy, scavenging for black, white socks be damned!

There's a lot of virtue in keeping your plans fluid, and taking liberties with your alloted schedule. Last night I took the T back into town, and almost caught a baseball game with theamazingjb. The scalpers prices were too high, as the game had just started. We found a prime viewing location and devoured half a plate of nachos (which was still enough to feed the two of us) and TWO pitchers of cider. Our conversation started all highbrow about how it's okay to be single, moved on to the social complexities of polyamory, and degenerated to catcalls and hoping for a miracle as the Sox got buried. It was like a Buffy episode, except w/out the cave man. Because, cider is NEVER evil.

We walked back to her flat because after two pitches going to the club seemed the thing to do. After some hemming and hawing, we put together an ensemble that would pass muster, and out we went. More ciders were drunk, loud music was played. I noticed with some chagrin that I had white socks on (after all, I hadn't planned on dancing that night). What to do? WHAT TO DO? I briefly considered ditching them in my pockets, but decided that I have sufficient coolness points to dance in sneakers and white socks! So I cashed in some points, and I danced.

The night finally ended in sleep around three. I'm pretty sure I got about 4 hours worth. I'm also pretty sure I lost a few hours today where I don't remember what happened. It matters not. I'm paying my dues right now, with sweet blissful sleep.

There you have it. Instant variety.

or cider, as the case may be!

cool points

Well, it depends on what you were wearing, but if you danced well enough, the point would not be removed at all, they were probably not even noticed. After all, you were wearing sneakers, so white socks sort of go with them anyway, depending upon what you are wearing, of course, nasty little cycle that one.

Sounds like you had a wonderful evening none the less. Damn socks! lol

I think it worked out just fine, in the end.

Cider is never evil?

Are you really sure you want to tempt the Universe like that? I mean, that's really tweaking one of Eris's nipples, just daring her to mess with you, dude. Aieeeee! I'd never tempt fate like that, the next pitcher of cider would be spiked with some freaky potion or something... :P

In any case, sounds like fun.

Cider is evil

I like to state that I think that my half of the nachos were tainted.

And I stayed until closing in that "outfit."

This meant that I had 4 hours of sleep for filming, auditioning and moving a bike, a laptop, a purse, a backpack and the equivalent of two dead bodies worth of belongings to NY on public transporation.
I was a tired girl.


white socks are the new cool.
(but not the white soxs)

Hate the nachos, not the cider!

[silas7.livejournal.com]

I did feel a little off the next day. I blame the jalapenos and cheese. Never the cider!

We only left a 1/2 hour before you. There was nothing wrong with that outfit!

Did you take naps between shots?

I try to start new trends.

How could I ever blame the cheese.


Per a previous post (with a now dead link)



Cheese 'can be as addictive as morphine'
http://www.faxdaily.com/cheese.html

An American doctor has claimed that cheese can be as addictive as morphine.

Dr. Neal Barnard, president of the Physicians Committee on Responsible Medicine, says cheese is addictive because it contains small amounts of morphine from cows' liver.

In his book - Breaking the Food Seduction: The Hidden Reasons Behind Food Cravings and Seven Steps to End them Naturally - he explains why people are hooked on products like cheese, meat, sugar and chocolate.

He says: "There's a biochemical reason many of us feel we can't live without our daily fix.

"Cheese, for example, contains high levels of casein, a protein that breaks apart during digestion to produce morphine-like opiate compounds, called casomorphins.

"These opiates are believed to be responsible for the mother-infant bond that occurs during nursing. It's no surprise many of us feel bonded to the refrigerator."

Dr. Barnard says his research could help overweight people currently suing fast food restaurants, by proving the food is addictive like tobacco.

He has developed a three-week diet and lifestyle program to help people kick their 'addiction' by changing their eating habits, exercising and sleeping well.
