i have the cape. i make the fucking whoosh noises!

b.l.o.g.

last night i made a most scrumptious dinner. which was a pleasant surprise because it was all about trying out new recipes. early last year i fell in love with smoked paprika…which, if you love paprika to begin with, this is a whole ‘nother ballgame. subtly spicy-sweet and smoky, it makes nearly every dish fantastic. i’ve been using it liberally in as many recipes as possible and have all but abandoned regular paprika. so, of course when i found a recipe for smoked paprika chicken, i absolutely had to try it. plus, in all of my culinary adventures, i’ve never baked/roasted a whole chicken myself.

first and foremost: Happy Cinco De Mayo!!!

naturally, work has consumed all of my life and time and energy and whatnot, so tonight i’ll scurry home to whip up some vaguely delicious dinner and partake of some tasty mexican beer all while cursing the very existence of the french. not quite a full-scale shindig, but it will be a fantastic enough way to kick-start the week, i think. viva mexico!

gavin rossdale, my future and forever baby daddy, is coming out with a new album in june. i absolutely cannot wait. i am BEYOND thrilled about this. everything he does is fabulous, and please dear god let him tour through boston again! please let me be lucky enough to see him live again and again and again.

that said, in the meantime i will continue to wait in anticipation of his fabulous new album. though, i would be lying if i said i don’t wish institute would put out another album together. hell, i still have some hardcore bush nostalgia goin’ on right here.

le sigh.

plus, just take a look at this man. go ahead, look. so.fuckin’.gorgeous.

my mind and my body are in a deliberate and frustrating battle against each other right now. it feels like a steel vice is slowly but steadily trying to squeeze out the contents of my skull; and the instant i bend forward less than a 90-degree angle blood pounds into my temples threatening to burst. i feel tense and slick and coiled inside…a whole other set of pressure causing aches and twinges that give me pause, make me sit up and wince.

my body is a map of disturbances right now, all of it in sharp relief against the landscape of this encompassing headache that has lasted all.fucking.day.

my mind, however…that’s another story…

tomorrow is april 1st and the official cd release party for roadsteamer‘s new album, the most pretentious album since axl’s (8:00 pm at great scott’s in allston, 18+, $8) if that’s not a good omen for the month of april then i don’t know what is.

further proof? friday is santana in concert…aw hell yeah. and the next day? margaret fucking cho. live, bitchez. with liam sullivan. SHOES BETCHES! it’s going to be a really epic weekend, and i’ll be damned if i let work ruin it. or anything else, for that matter.

march is effectively ending and i could not be happier. the first part of the year is always kind of lousy. but the boy and i had a particularly low key weekend, which was nice. also: i properly had some alcohol, finally! god, mr. daniels, how i missed you. last night we saw run fatboy, run. it was so wonderfully hilarious (and a touch gross, too), totally perfect end to the weekend. in fact, i would totally see it again. it was cute and funny. maybe not on the same level as shaun of the dead, but awesome nonetheless. also? david fuckin’ schwimmer? the hell? i never would’ve pegged him as having an iota of talent, or directorial abilities. then again, simon pegg carried the movie.

in other news…i.want.these.so.hard: shelves of untold awesomeness.

are they not the most fabulous things you’ve ever seen? wouldn’t my apartment be that much more awesome if i had these? they’re beyond fabulous! i am so covetous right now, i swear.

and the thing i covet the most:

chris cornell, his voice is so delicious it should be illegal. michael jackson fucking wishes he could ever sound this incredible.

i am wearing my incredibly cute a’hoy matey! dress with my new skull & crossbones galoshes and weather be damned, it is awesome. some days, you just have to be a pirate, savvy?

remember saturday morning cartoons growing up? remember waking up uber-fucking-early and getting juice or cereal or poptarts and settling down just to catch every moment of kick ass programming? remember how cartoons nowadays are so incredibly retarded they will make your brain meats liquefy into a puddle of dumb ass and leak out your ears? yeah…me too. what i don’t remember — because i’ve so clearly blocked all this shit out — is how utterly disturbing some of these cartoons were: Top 10 Most Disturbing Moments in 80s Cartoons. only now am i re-remembering all of these extra fucking special moments in cartoon history, but obviously the fact that i had NO IDEA until now speaks to my awesome powers of represson. plus, i am totally ashamed of how i wanted nothing more than to be jem! when i was 5 years old (the year before i was rainbow brite). ps – don’t fuck with the smurfs!

in other news, the TSA is still run by utter and complete assholes. are you even a little bit surprised?

flashback time: my 13-year-old-self is squealing with glee while my 25-year-old-self is thinking of all teh filthy, filthy things i’d love to do…how is it possible that it has been over a decade and mr. rossdale is still as naughtydelicious as he was when i was but a wee, impressionable, lass?

scandalous.

and i don’t even really like british dudes…but guitar skillz, plus awesome music skillz in general, plus such a sexy voice, plus my first huge celeb crush ever equals an undying love for gavin rossdale. even all these years later. (and who knows, maybe someday he will leave that gwen skank for me!) i am not ashamed of my girlish crush. i embrace it wholeheartedly. i guess i’m just young at heart. even if i typically do not go for older dudes (significantly older, mind you), i cannot help this one.
