Having fun in the sunCategory: summer
These are the crazy kind of friends I want to have. I feel like this year we barely got to have sunny, crazy drunk days by water. Everything is entirely too serious.

There certainly is. It is the crunchy and crispy lentil-vegetable samosa at Bikaner-Wallahs in Rajouri Garden in New Delhi.

I will be 160lbsCategory: body
I am trying this milk shake a day extra diet that (e:boxerboi) suggested. I think it is finally working as I have broken the 150lb ceiling and am working toward 160lbs.
tinypliny - 10/01/08 19:06
@Drew -> Haha.. Good Plan for my brother as well. :)
@Paul: What is this crazy milk-shake? What is the recipé?
+ You look like one of those shady characters that might beat you up on even more shadier streets. Yikes! WHY WHY WHY did you shave that sexy moustache????

I have an extra 10 pounds to spare.
Here's a diet you can try--hang out with me, all day, every day. and consume all of the stuff I shouldn't. You will almost certainly gain weight. (and I will almost certainly lose it).

The Elmwood Village Kitchen Tour 2008Category: housing
Today I went on the Elmwood Village Kitchen Tour with my mother and (e:matthew). I liked seeing people's kitchens - it gave me a bunch of ideas. I don't usually get to see many people's kitchens because of my animal allergies. The theme this year was green kitchens.
I would say maybe like 10% of the kitchen's mentioned anything that had to do with green. One lady had bamboo floors and recycled glass counter tops. Another one used a certain kind of tree that grew faster than usual trees. The rest pretty much did not mention anything. Oh accept the one kitchen that had all reused stuff (green) left their shower on during the whole thing to show how awesome it was. It was awesome but serioulsy we could just trust you dude.
I saw some really nice woodwork.
Including this turtle at the Elmwood Village Inn
at which (e:drew) was a tour guide.
Sorry the picture sucks, stupid iphone is really bad with snap shots.
We saw (e:janelle) along the way and ate some Italian Nougat at Delish which was in fact super delish.
In the end we toured the Gilda Radner house which was cool.
WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE
I really thought showing the two empty houses with half done kitchens that were both for rent on Bryant was tacky. I mean I just paid $18 per person to see kitchens. I don't need your lame ass advertsiement pushed in my face. Especially not if your kitchen isn't even all that. Is there no oversight committee of these kind of things. I felt the same way on the Linwood home tour four years ago when an apartment building showed an empty apartment for rent.
Unrelated but along the way:
I also saw these panties outside Delish and wonder what the story behind that is.

Pantyhoses should be banned. For ethical and medical reasons. A yuckier, more pretentious and ridiculously foolish pain has not been invented. I would go so far as to call them sexist and unwieldy instruments of torture and infection.

Those are pantyhose, not panties. And there's probably a really simple story: Those things are really fucking uncomfortable, and are often worn with uncomfortable shoes. Some chick got drunk enough to be totally fed up with her horribly uncomfortable shoes and the pantyhose that were riding down her ass, and took off the shoes, stuffed them into her purse, took off the pantyhose, stuffed them into her purse, and kept walking. Pantyhose being little bitches, they then proceeded to fall out of her purse as she walked drunkenly barefoot down the street, whereupon they became a slightly disturbing part of the street scenery.
I could probably come up with a much nastier story, but that one above is pretty commonplace and probably true.

as for the panties, you probably don't want to know. As for the weight gain, congrats! I'm trying to go the opposite direction unfortunately and I've gotten extremely lazy and stopped going to the gym :(

Haha... I don't miss my crazy days. I got into plenty of trouble all the time and its kind of a relief that I am not getting hauled into some disciplinary office or the other all the time.
I'm with you on that. I don't know that last time I did something spontaneous.
(that's definitely not snow. haha)
Paul, you have shown me a vision of a perfect future.
Not bad!
