"I can't believe you aren't going to be naked at your own wedding!"

Sometimes Star Trek: The Next Generation has some great stinger lines.

Late Sunday night, I was having a conversation with my older brother in our basement when he said that the hell of early '08 when he broke his femur, had to have a metal rod surgically inserted in his leg and had to go through almost three months of agonizing pain and physical therapy was the "best time of his life" because he got to do nothing but play video games all day.

At least someone got some good memories out of it.

I am so ticked that I can't make the banana cupcakes until at least Friday! The bananas aren't ripe yet. I haven't had dessert in so long...all we have are Cadbury Creme Eggs. I'm not that much of a sweet eater, and I'd kind of like my ass to stay the size it is now (I gained about 3lbs over the holidays and managed to lose it at last, thank God)...but I miss playing around with baking. My three favorite things to do with cooking are: 1. Working with lots of cute vegetables 2. Browning meat with a really nice crust and 3. Making portable desserts like cookies and cupcakes. My least favorite things to do are cooking chicken and fish. You need to check the temperature on chicken constantly to make sure it isn't going to kill everyone with salmonella, and it's always hard to tell when fish is done. Except fried shrimp. Fried shrimp is easy. Except for the part where you have to bread them. Now that I think of it, breading things is my absolute least favorite thing to do! The coating sticks to your hands and you end up with fingers that resemble corn dogs!
