RJ Makes Dinner 7
1/2 cup of butter seems A LOT of buttah...
Shredded partly by yours truly
Chicken hash with duck pâté. Two words: mmm mmm!
Duck Duck Goose
This evening i come home to this message on my machine:
Please accept our sincere apology. Goodbye.
And that was it. No intro, short and sweet.
I was touched.
Now, i know it's an automated recording involuntarily edited. But i choose to believe that is the cosmos expressing remorse on every instance i was fucked*.
I accept.
*In reference to mishaps, NOT intercourse

OK, so i'm OCD. Wait, it's "i have OCD".
It's when you obsess with your association with OCD then you know you definitely are/have OCD.

'Twas a pivotal day:
1. Submitted my long due resignation letter.
2. Bought a $60 bottle of Angel by Thierry Mugler.
Yeah, i've got my priorities straight.

RJ Makes Dinner 4
Bisteca de Palomilla and pan-fried broccoli cheddar mashed pototo cakes
Heart-shaped as it turned out...RJ suspected the presentation was too monochromatic.
I beg to differ. The texture and the depth more than makes up.
Plus it's friggin' sautéed onion and potatoes. Hello!
Yuzu Bergamot at Dawn
This evening i was listening to an all-time favorite again, "The Heart of the Matter" by Don Henley.
Forgiveness
Even if
Even if
you don't love me anymore
I just realized: if somebody doesn't love you, there is nothing to forgive.

RJ:
This rose bush is going to be in full bloom in a couple of months...
And I don't know if you've noticed but the archway is covered with these vines... That's star jasmine. In April it becomes really fragrant.
So if you stick around...
V:
Only two reasons to stay? I don't know.

Merry Bunch
21-year-old Ashley "hun"s everyone at the office (we're twice or thrice her age) and is way into terms of endearment, a disease she allegedly contracted in high school.
The other day she called Sherry "sugar plums", tickling her pink. Then the girl followed that act by addressing Liv* with "butter cakes".
Yesterday afternoon Liv squinted at Ashley. "I'm trying to come up with a nickname for you," she announced. "Something sweet..."
"How about... cough syrup?" I eagerly suggested as I fake-handed Ashley paperwork. "Here ya go, cherry cough syrup!"
*Not her real name

It's chilly.
Ashley:
(Suffering from DOMS from a Tae Kwon Do session)
I'm not even feeling it. I'm just focusing on my legs.
V:
So you're focusing on the pain rather than the cold.

I once knew this fellow. He'd cry at the drop of a hat. Everyone teased him. He'd say, "My kidneys are wired funny."
V:
So he was incontinent through his eyes?
