I'm mathing my ass off at the moment, so today's post will be thrown down list style.
Things I'm Into These Days
Cous cous with raw peppers and tomatoes
Sitting in the kitchen window and looking at the neighbors (somehow, I think this might be bad. The neighbors are more than a block away and they don't know I'm looking at them, and I never watch them do anything really private. Just wash their dishes and such. Tiny Roomate says it's not bad, but I'm not sure.)
Watching Antique Roadshow against everyones wishes.
York Peppermint Patties
Sweatshirt fabric
Going out and not drinking
Trying to catch the attention of drivers who've forgotten to turn their lights on with a little Jumping Hand Signal dance I made up.
Putting groups of people in order.
Say, from best dressed to worst dressed, or from entirely un-fucked up to totally and unreperably fucked up. (I put all of Cakes friends in order based on how much I like them. Today, my top 2 of his friends stopped by his work while we were on the phone. Cake set down the reciever and said "Guys! You won first and second prize! Sorry, Pat. You got second." Pat wants a recount.)
Spoon's 'Kill The Moonlight'.
Suggesting that Patrickt get a haircut before going to possibly meet the showgirl of his dreams.
Considering and rejecting methods to reintroduce pants into the wilderness of the wardrobe. (this has been a total failure. You wouldn't think it'd be this difficult, but all the clinical trials have resulted in terrible, terrible ensembles.)
Things I'm Not So Into These Days
Working
Letting my hair grow
Waking up at 3:00am and having a panic attack about a charity conference that doesn't actually exisit, and since when do I go to charity conferences, anyway?
Fox not coming in on my television
Taking midday naps
Getting sad and rollerskating around in a formal (but just you wait, buddy. Winter's barely going.)

Wha...? That just goes against everything I know. But I'll totally watch Antiques Roadshow with you against everyone's wishes. It's getting lonely doing it by myself.
Posted by: molly at December 4, 2003 05:23 PMAntiques Roadshow is enthralling. And I have no idea why. I mean, it's like watching sports to me- guessing the estimates, whether something is worth anything at all, and finding out tidbits of history that will serve me no purpose whatsoever.
Yeah, I lead a full life.
And couscous is wonderful when done right. And when it isn't it's like eating birdseed.
Man, I love antiques roadshow for the same reason I love craigslist. There's nothing more fascinating than other peoples stuff, and finding out how much things cost.
Posted by: sonya at December 4, 2003 11:34 PMcraigslist? Is this something I should know about?
googled it: If I reached the right place, then i am amazed. Lists! Lots of lists!
There goes my weekend.
Posted by: anothersonya at December 5, 2003 12:02 AMYou know, the Antiques Improv Show for several weeks last year--did I forget to tell you about it? Maybe next time.
For now, you and TR should come see A(n improvised) Christmas Carol. I'll get you comps.
