my friends page…

Hi There everyone

I’ve been off of posting a bit – reading, lurking. I’m not too sure about this whole live journal thing anymore, to be truthful. As the net Hive learns more and more about me, the less I feel comfortable disclosing (unless it is on my own-run site where I have more control.)

Is there anything anyone has been wondering or wanted to know about?

And yes, this is an attempt to see how many people would actually care if I 86’ed this journal. Not just for my own ego-pumping or deflating, but I would like to be actually in touch with how much value this holds for anyone.

So, Thoughts? Questions? Anyone care for a mint?

  2. I would miss you! So if you kill the journal, you must replace it with an equal amount of you somewhere else so I will not run out of you.

  6. for the love of all that’s MONKEY, stay!

    and here is what I am wondering and want to know:
    when are you and the lovely mstikimama going to come out and play and have drinks? b has a kickin’ stocked bar and possibly enough tiki things strewn about that you might just feel okay about it. meep!

  7. and your journal included is the only reason that I get out of bed in the morning. I know, I don’t post often either, but with a dull little life like mine, there isn’t much to post about.

    don’t make me sleep all day long.

  9. I don’t know you personally, but I do enjoy reading when you post. I make it a point to read everyone on my list even though I might not comment often.

  10. Is there anything anyone has been wondering or wanted to know about?

    yes! Actually, less of a wondering, more of a telling. I’ve been wanting to let you know that thanks to you, I am not loving West Elm, and I can’t wait to paint my living room.

  11. I would miss you terribly. With my life so busy right now, I feel like I’m keeping in touch when I read yours and H’s journals. I check almost every day.

    It was so good seeing you both, btw. I had a fabulous time.

  13. I’m wondering how awesome it will be to see your kick ass house in Nowhere Fishville at the end of the month, and also if you’re down with seeing Slither (Cap’n Tightpants new movie) on Friday the 31st or very shortly afterward? And I’d LOVE a mint. Yum! Thanks!

  14. I don’t particularly care what happens to you day-to-day, but I really enjoy your editorial posts and the recipes. 🙂

  15. I am working on re-creating a dish from “Chopstix,” which used to be on Melrose in L.A (they also had a place on Colorado in Pasadena).

    It is Thai Peanut Sesame Ginger Noodle Chicken Salad or something like that. I’m this close. It is a delicious journey.

  17. I had a dream a few nights ago where we all and you all were hanging out. Nice Dream.

  20. Jeeze! You see what I mean? I get all drooly reading over your egg-nog recipe (I think you posted it twice over the years)

    Sounds really awesome (now work on a low-calorie version!) All my favorite thai cuisine has like 1200 calories per tablespoon. 🙁

  27. Let me think about it – ingredients (off the top of my head):

    Peanut butter (some fat)
    sweet chilit sauce (sugar)
    sesame oil (all fat)
    Rice Wine (zippo)
    Ginger
    Spaghetti (chow mein)
    Skinned chicken
    Carrots (sugar)

    It shouldn’t be too high in calories, except for the peanut butter…

    What are your favorite Thai Dishes? I can do a Pad Si-Ew and a Pad Thai (and GaProw as soon as I can get my hands on Holy Basil)

  28. I’m in “PLAN TIKI CRAWL” mode lately, but I did have a grand plan of making a pictorial retrospective of the strange and wonderful parties Heather and I have thrown over the years…

  29. Panang beef (HOT) and Pad Thai.

    There was a gal from Thailand I worked with who made some home-made glass noodle dish that was so wonderfully spicy that I had to eat two plates full of it, but I don’t know what she called it and she didn’t really speak English so I didn’t talk to her much. Wish I knew what that was!

  30. Pad Thai is dead easy – I could do a post about that in the future.

    I’ll look into Panang Beef and get back to you.

    Only things you’ll HAVE to have:

    1. Wok
    2. Asian Market (99 Ranch down there, yeah?)

  32. i will have to make you BOTH aware of the invite!! I’ve thrown the idea out to MsFashionista, but in your busy tiki-monkey lives, methinks it gets lost. 😉

    *runs off to consult my pseudo-day-planner*

  33. oh! well ONE date that I know for sure is Sat 4/15…Bill’s b-day is the 11th so we are having a mini-soiree’ the night of the 15th. I’ll shoot you two the details as they develop!

  38. Well, we are a straight legally married couple, is that an R? Or does position matter?

  41. I enjoy reading your journal, even if I don’t agree with a whole lot of your opinions, lol. But I think both you and Heather are really fun and interesting people. Though it does crack me up that you believe you are revealing too much.

    When it comes to the day to day minutiae, you’re rather opaque. Of course, that’s just from my perspective, and I’m quite often more uninhibited in that respect, though I’m sure there are many people on my friends list who wish I were more inhibited in that department. Of course, now that I think about it, I am more circumspect about certain things than I used to be. Hmmm.

    Though I do love the pictures of your house and Budgie!

    But if you are at the end of your LJ walk, I really like Arend’s idea of the RSS feed.
