February 18th, 2008

I don’t really feel like writing right now, I’m so sleepy and had the lamest weekend in the history of weekends. Next weekend I’m gonna go set some stuff on fire and rob a liquor store to make up for how stupid this weekend was.

I did do one cute thing this week though, in honor of Valentine’s Day (which I’m undecided, do I like Valentines Day, or do I dislike it? I suppose I don’t feel strongly either way.) I baked heart shaped sugar cookies using this recipe here. Halfway through, at about 11pm I was really regretting that I decided to make them, but I prevailed, fighting my way to the top.

So cute. Love all around. Note that I decided the hot pink accent icing was a bad idea after a few tries.

In other V-day news, Riki took me on a hot date to Kuma’s. I don’t eat meat, so going to a burger place might not seem like my hot-date dream, but this place seriously rules - It has a metal theme for crying out loud.

I wish I was there right now.

oh - one more thing - Tomorrow the poll will be up! That is, if I can figure out how to do a poll.

At least you were able to sample the beer. Maybe he’ll take you to Morton’s for your birthday!
