Amanda and Shiver

My friend I call Shiver and myself. We went to an amusement park on Tuesday and then she came home with me to my new place. On Wednesday I returned her home and asked her to take this photo with me. Damn my new camera’s inability to focus on the face!

Old Ladies Gossiping

After 8:30pm, it’s very boring and lonely at my isolated work desk, so I sketched two of my coworkers chewing the fat.

Learning to Cook for One

Dinner

I used my older model George Foreman grill to thaw and cook a chunk of frozen hamburger meat. First, I coated both sides of the grill with non-stick cooking spray then plugged in the grill for five minutes. Meanwhile, I had a cup of rice cooking on the stove. Once the rice was boiling, I cut it down to low and covered it with a lid. I then placed my frozen meat on the grill and coated both sides with Steak Rub and Meat Tenderizer. I left the meat to cook and checked it periodically. When the outside was done, I cut it open and discovered that while the outside was black, the inners were still pink. Me, I’m a dead as you can get w/o being ash sort of gal. So I used a trick from Shiver and threw the meat on a plate and nuked it in the microwave for 3 minutes. When that was done, I then placed the meat and rice on a plate together. I then smothered a trail of Heinz 57 sauce over them.

The result: gross.

I’ll have to try again later.

From New House

Thursday, August 6th, 2009

Started at my new workplace today. I’m exhausted. The work wasn’t hard but I think the situation made things difficult being the new girl and all. Three years ago I originally started working for this company and at lunch that day, a boy sat down and started pulling at my book, wanting my attention. We dated for two years. Today I drove to Chick-fil-a for a lonely lunch then ran to the vet’s to pick up some special cat food (the diabetic kitty isn’t eating properly).

It was different.

I really miss home.
