1. Watching the Sopranos again. I have seasons one through four on DVD. But honest to god, I'm watching Episode 7, and in flashback, Tony's parents are arguing. Livia is being difficult about moving to Reno, and Tony's dad says, "[cursing in Italian], a fucking albacore around my neck!" AN ALBACORE. ALBACORE. LOL LOVE IT.

THIS YULETIDE IS AN ALBACORE AROUND MY NECK.

Naw, not really, but it's hard.

2. HAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I LIKE THE GERMAN PART.

3. Okay, so I'm not supposed to feel bad for Corrado Soprano and his lady friend when he dumps her because she blabbed about his oral sex habits, but I do. I feel really bad for her. I mean, he's a shit, and he's a mobster, but he breaks her heart there. And I think it breaks his heart a little too. The lesson I learn form this is that people need to be more open about cunnilingus. So here's me feeling bad for a killer and asshole. Hrm.

4. Last night I went to Legume with the emquilxy and her mum for the three course offal menu. I didn't think I would like the second course, but it was really tender and not at all rubbery and most importantly, not white. I'm glad I tried it instead of skipping the menu in favor of the antelope.

1st: Sweetbread "sandwich" with oyster mushrooms, elephant garlic, and salsa verde with a small green salad.
2nd: Shirred egg in tripe stew
3rd: Pork belly goulash with spaetzle and creme fraiche

5. Oh Bon Jovi, you are awesome and the best form of karaoke ever.

5. SHIT I HAVE TO DO:

XMAS SHOPPING
RECYCLING
UPDATE THE KINKMEME
MYSTERY DRABBLES
YEARLY FIC ROUND UP
POST-IT NOTE SCANNING
FORMAT THE STORY FOR THE THING
HIGHLANDER STORY FORMATTING


EYE APPT
HAIR APPT
BIRTHDAY DECORATIONS
REORGANISE LONG TERM TO DO LIST
DRINK THIS ALCOHOLIC EGGNOG.



A FUCKING ALBACORE AROUND MY NECK!

FBI agent: We want Johnny Sac, but more than that we want Montarno and Teressi.
Junior Soprano: I wanna fuck Angie Dickinsion. We'll see who gets lucky first.

"sandwich."

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

I KNOW. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY THEY DID THAT THEY ALSO CAPPED EVERYTHING, BUT I COULDN'T BRING MYSELF TO DO IT.

[kwanalicious.livejournal.com]

Tripe "stew." Creme "fraiche."

Albacore around my "neck." That's right, I went there.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

If you had really "gone 'there'", it would have been this:

Alba"core" around my "neck".

[kwanalicious.livejournal.com]

"Touche."

You know, a place named Legume seems to suggest more of a vegetarian type of fare, as opposed to offering offal.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

They're more about sustainable cooking. It's a really nice place. Must be nice to have your restaurant open from 5:30-9 three days a week.

*sends you an Anne Rice stop*

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

LOL THE WORST PART IS THAT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SAYING THAT I WRITE LIKE HER FOR YEARS, AND IS TILL THINK IT'S A COMPLIMENT.

I SHALL NEVER HATE YOU ANNE, NEVER. JUST STOP WRITING. ALSO, GIVE ME CREATIVE CONTROL AND PERMISSION TO WRITE THE NEXT LESTAT BOOK.

(I love your icon)

[lionessvalenti.livejournal.com]

I can say for a fact that you don't write like Anne Rice. I've tried to read a couple of her books at different points in my life and I've never managed past about thirty pages before I'm like "BO-RING *TOSS*". I don't have that feeling with your writing.

[stasha2g]

IT IS A COMPLIMENT. FOR REALS. Nothing wrong with AR's basic writing skills, before she went gaga.

(Icon comes from here)

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

I know! I think I adored her first three vampire books.

[madder-rose.livejournal.com]

To Twilight fans: "Your vampires may sparkle, but mine were like MARBLE AND SET PEOPLE ON FIRE! ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE GLOBE!"

Anne Rice totally turned me into an emo-vampire cosplayer before there was such a thing.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

OMG AND THEN IN PANDORA WHEN MARIUS FUCKS PANDORS WITH HIS USELESS COCK.

[madder-rose.livejournal.com]

He does?! I never read Pandora, I hated her character. :/

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Yeah, she was irritating.

[madder-rose.livejournal.com]

She was AR's Mary Sue. Unless that was Louis. Or whatserface, Kirsten Dunst. Unless it was Armand...

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

It was Rowan.

[madder-rose.livejournal.com]

Crap, I kind of liked Rowan, but then I didn't.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

God, did you ever READ Blood Canticle?

If you haven't, don't.

[lionessvalenti.livejournal.com]

The bright side of having no money is that I don't have to deal with the stress of Christmas shopping. On the downside, my favorite part of Christmas has always been giving gifts. I never really get into the "Christmas spirit" until I'm excited about what I bought for people. But even when I had a job in the summers, I never have money in the winter, so I haven't bought Christmas gifts since 2005. How lame.

Your icon is mesmerizing.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

MY ICON IS DOING IT.

Yeah, this year I'm doing mostly cards.

[easilymused1956.livejournal.com]

I don't think you *write* like Anne Rice. I think sometimes the *themes* of your stories are similar to her best novels. Here I'm thinking the original trio of Vampire and Taltos novels.

I say nothing about your dinner. Nothing at all.

Sorry to say I only saw one episode of the Sopranos. Ever. I'm too cheap for cable TV. LoL

Renee

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

The original vampire trio was the shit. Queen of the Damned is still one of my favorite books evar.

I'm all about the rentals. I don't have cable either. :)

[madder-rose.livejournal.com]

Tripe? Like that stuff Gordon Ramsey once attempted to trick people (successfully) into eating? Erm...

I'll just stick to my fried haggis thank you very muchly, odd restaurant.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

LOL I haven't had haggis is a long time. TRIPE IS AWESOME. This one time. Once. From this restaurant. That's it.

NOM.

[madder-rose.livejournal.com]

I might try it on my Tour of Scotland, home of Offal Food. Heh.

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Make sure it's pronounced OH-ful.

[madder-rose.livejournal.com]

I'll do my best!

I always manage to pronounce it the way swedes say "refuse" as in garbage. "Av-Ful".

[huesiemama.livejournal.com]

#2 - I LOVE SCRUBS WITH TH- Oh wait, you already knew that. I didn't know that Elliot had reprised the famous 'I told you so' dance!

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

HAHAAAHA IN TH LAST SEASON. IT WAS AWESOME.
