Guilty Pleasures

Well, I'm going to be starting on my wacky schedule soon. I'm hoping things will be resolved soon.

On another note, I've been watching Saved By the Bell at night instead of Jeopardy! I never watched Saved By the Bell when it was on, but it is weirdly interesting to watch. Right now there's a very young Tori Spelling on playing the girlfriend of Screech.

And tonight I'm planning to watch The Secret Life of the American Teenager. I know it looks like such a horribly bad, sappy, cheesy, (insert more synonyms here) show but I am strangely intrigued. Maybe it's because it's written by Brenda Hampton of 7th Heaven fame. I used to watch that show simply to watch how bad it was...very train wreck-like. And I'm suspecting this show will have that same train wreck affect. I'm curious too that Molly Ringwald is playing a major part.


Apart from that, the job at Project HOME was filled, but I have 2 interviews coming up. So here's hoping. This past weekend I went to see my friend Kim in New York on Saturday. We didn't do much, just walked around in Chelsea. And I got me some Krispy Kremes and goodies from Zaro's. I also got some beauty products from Lush, namely their Cupcake mask and their Brazened Honey mask and a bottle of their Curly Wurly shampoo. My Bolt ride went well...they were running 15 minutes late in the morning, but it went very smoothly on my way back. I talked to my friend Izabella over the weekend too. She sounds like she's doing ok in Galway...she was working at a US company that just laid her off, though. But she was pretty much talking me into moving to Europe. I've always been tempted to just pick up and move somewhere where I don't know anyone, but I don't think I'd ever have the nerve to actually do it. Anyway, she said there are lots of other Polish people in Galway and that everyone's just *really* nice. She liked Dublin better, mostly because they had more salsa clubs and it was bigger, but she still likes Galway.

Sunday I was supposed to see Sex & the City with Laura, but she canceled so I just stayed home and did job hunting. I ended up making some steak tacos, using soft tortillas, but they turned out too spicy, even for me. No other wildly fun cooking things this week. Today I made bratwurst simmered in Yuengling and topped with caramelized onions. That's not that wildly exciting, but it does taste good.

Will blog again later. Can't wait to see what happens with this pregnancy scare on The Secret Life of the American Teenager!
