Bukkake Bucket

How to Make Your Husband Laugh Against His Will
Lean over during the “Bokashi Bucket” portion of your “Sustainable Living – Vermicomposting” workshop and whisper in his ear: “Bukkake Bucket.” (I debated going with “Booyakasha Bucket” instead, but being shocking and prurient is funnier, right?)

Worm Farming

The Snook and I have been going through a period of renewed interest in our garden, and I recently decided to start up our worm farm again. (I got one a few years ago but somehow managed to kill all my worms.) This time we’re gonna do it right! So I booked us in for a free vermicomposting workshop at The Watershed this morning. It was fun! We learned a lot of great tips for keeping our worms healthy along with advice for harvesting and using the castings. I highly recommend it. You can even buy farms and worms there too! We left with a bucket of worms to restart our population. They’re currently exploring their new home and hopefully having lots of little babies…

Three Weeks til Halloween!

Only three more weeks…

Halloween Invitation

Ah, the horrors American parents inflict upon their children.

Most of those images come from this site, if you’re interested.

I am mighty.

I am mighty. I know it’s cheesy, but I actually found that a little empowering. My self-confidence isn’t very high these days. Maybe I should watch that every morning or something. (Link courtesy of Brigita, who is also mighty.)

Dinner with Bill

Foodie Alert: The Snook and I just booked in for this dinner with Bill Granger sponsored by gleebooks. It’s on November 27th at the Hickson Rd Bistro (at the Sydney Theater). You get three courses plus a copy of Bill’s latest book, which he’s going to talk about. I think there are still spots left if anybody wants to join us!

Verboten

Due to nefarious, evil, comment-spamming assclown bastards, you can no longer mention “viagra,” “cialis,” or “phentermine” in your comments at this site. Not that many of you ever did, but now you can’t. This list will probably grow.

Woz

Someone on MetaFilter asked what the big deal is with Woz anyway… and the man himself responded!

Veronica Mars

How in the world am I supposed to go to bed and sleep when there’s a NEW VERONICA MARS TO THINK ABOUT?I’m not loving the new intro so far. In fact, I remarked to the Snook that I hate it. It may grow on me though. I can see what they’re doing, trying to make it seem a little more grown-up and a little less 90210, but dammit, the old intro ranked right up there with Buffy for me in terms of sheer ROCKIN’.

All the old cast – love them. Veronica looked great. I wish I could be a tiny spunky blonde! I thought at first Logan had gained weight, because his chest seemed “puffier.” Then he took his shirt off. (Let us all pause for a moment.) Dick looked somehow thinner… but wow, I didn’t realize the actor could actually play depth like that. I don’t think for a minute he’s the one that raped Parker. Total red herring there. Mac and Wallace and Keith were just as I expected.

The new people. I kept picturing Piz as the lead guy in High School Musical. He’s not bad, and I like the Wallace might have a guy friend. I hope he gets over his puppy dog crush soon though. I could really see him fulfilling a Xander role here. (Possible love interest for Mac??) I didn’t really warm to Parker though. I was just kinda “whatever.” I called her getting her head shaved pretty early, mostly because her hair was so weird and, you know, her being all slutty and stuff. (I hope this storyline means Alia Shawkat’s coming back.) OH! And I read some speculation over at TWoP that Veronica will end up hooking up with her Criminology professor. PLEASE LET THIS NOT BE TRUE. I hate those storylines. And if she tramples Logan’s heart, now that he’s being all nice and normal and stuff, so help me God I’ll… rant about it on the Internet. (The TA is totally evil though.)
