1. I was talking about peanut butter cups with [livejournal.com profile] keenai yesterday, and I told her I'd post the recipe I use for peanut butter cup cookies in my next entry. ExpandBehold: deliciousness )

2. Since I enjoy tedious, time-consuming projects, I've been going back through old entries & tagging any that included IM convos. I've made it to March, 2003! Heh. This will take forever. It's fun though. I used to post them on my LJ much more often than I do now. They're funny to reread years later.

While sifting through stuff, I've come across a LOT of surveys & memes, too (my favorite survey response? "What's your orientation?"/"I'm straight. So far." Ha HA. Way to leave yourself an out--pun intended--there, in denial!previous self). I thought it'd be fun to redo one now & see how different (or similar) the responses I get are. Considering four of the eight people who commented to it then are still regular commenters now (more than eight years later--I think that's sort of amazing), it should be interesting.

I _____ Rach.
Rach is _____.
If I were alone in a room with Rach, I would _____.
Rach needs _____.
I want to _____ Rach.
______ is my first memory of Rach.
Every time I see/hear ______, I am reminded of Rach.
I'd give _______ to Rach, if I had the chance.

Fill it out, amigas!

3. I haven't done this in a while, so Expand3 songs I'm listening to today )

4. Who else saw the Parenthood finale last night? ExpandLet's talk about it )

5. For my Vid of the Day, here's some funny snark:

Micro Update, aaaaand GO:

(note that there's only three points here instead of the usual five or ten, hence how I can justify calling this longwinded ramble anything approaching "micro")

1. I want to see this movie so badly. I hope it finds a distributor. Of course I might lose my shit completely by seeing Emily play a character that's gay--if we get a love scene, I'll burst into ecstatic flames, mark my words--but it'll be a fun descent into madness, so I'm down.<--hyperbolic jokes, oh how I love thee

2. Dear Yahoo,

Expandcut for eating disorder-related stuff, in case anyone needs to skip it )

'Kay, I feel better now. Also, I'm copying some of what I saw on a documentary the other day about heroin addicts going to live with monks in Thailand for rehab; they showed them meditating, & the monk told them to imagine all their emotions floating down toward the ground (also to visualize your inhalations entering through the top of your head & then filling up your body). I love meditation stuff (I used to do it all the time. I should really get back to that), so I immediately took to it. Anything to help me relax, seriously. I'm like one of those balls of wound-up rubber bands. Teeeeense. It's pretty much my natural state. Stupid Generalized Anxiety Disorder/overthinky brain.

P.S. What do I have to do to get a trip to hang with monks in Thailand? I don't want to do heroin, yo. But hey, my best friend was hooked on it by the age of 13--can't we have a section of the monastery for the codependents?

3. I am officially ridiculous. Once I didn't have to worry about adjusting to being off the topamax at the same time as starting a new job, ExpandI went back to my decision to go off it. )

For my Vid of the Day, let's hear it for pretty, talented, out LGBTQ women in the music scene:
