Drabble of your choice for the person who can finish that lyric without google.
Josh went over to Daxton's, and I seem to be getting over my debilitating fear of using the internet. Whoooooo! So talk to me, people!
1. We recently re-watched Dragonball Z with Emma because she had gotten hooked on Dragonball Z Kai on Cartoon network. So we watched like all four million episodes of this show, and for the most part I was as charmed as I was on the first go round as a wee baby undergrad. But somehow on the first go-round, I missed the last episode or else did not want to come down from that cloud long enough to ponder its implications. Why oh why does Dragonball Z end with Goku turning into a douchebag? It's like he came back from Underworld an infantilized idiot. Am I wrong? Thoughts?
2. We are watching Inuyasha now with Ems, and I did not remember how creepy and scary the show is (monsters of ewness) but Ems has nerves of steel (she just recently told me, "Mom, I'm not sleeping with a nightlight anymore. That's for babies, just so you know). If you watch it streaming through Netflix you can only get the subtitled which at first I was irritated about, mostly because you have to have your eyes on the screen the whole time and can't go check on dinner or do other things while watching but now I am digging it. I love hearing the original voices.
3. I cooked spaghetti squash. It was awesome. I cut the squash in half lengthwise and baked at 375 covered in foil and cut side down for 45 min and then turned it over and baked 15 more covered in foil. Then I removed the seed and pulled the flesh away in strings from the rind. I put it in a pan and tossed over medium heat with butter, a little sesame oil, and some soy sauce. It's like the perfect canvas. You could do anything to it. It tastes like a milder and slightly sweeter yellow squash but it has the awesome crunchy noodle texture. What have you cooked awesome lately?
4. I just finished reading The Help. Also Joan Didion's Slouching Toward Bethlehem. Thoughts?
5. We watched Hugo. Lorraine cried. What did y'all think. ;)

I do not know what Hugo is. :(
