Yum Food!

You know, I really should just find some sort of theme to blog about, but I’m way too EVERYWHERE for that. Maybe my psychiatrist is right. I do have A.D.D.

chow mein Anyway, I was meandering around the kitchen (and by meandering I mean spinning in a circle because that’s really all there’s room for in our tiny space) trying to find something to eat and I remember we had just bought cheap noodle bowls the other day. Now, by cheap, I don’t mean Ramen cheap, but it’s hella close. It’s still below a buck to get a full bowl, and I thought I’d share with you so you could try them out yourself.

They’re the Nissin Chow Mein bowls and there’s several to choose from. My favorites are Chinese Chicken Vegetable and the Thai Peanut. It takes six to seven minutes to make and really all you have to do is pour in water and stick it in the microwave. And it’s good! I was surprised by how good and filling they can be for such a cheap price.

There are a lot of mixed reviews about this stuff online, and I think it’s pretty much up to you whether you’ll like it or not. For me, it’s a great quick food and good!

Ooh, the microwave just dinged! Food time.




Merlin the Psycho Cat

I swear, our cat is a dog. Merlin, our 14 week old kitten, is a dog. Not only does he follow Spunky around EVERYWHERE and sleep with him (really, he sleeps curled up in his tail), but he runs to the door with him when someone comes in, he tries to eat the dog food with Spunky, he chases his tail in circles, he gives Spunky baths but terrorizes the other cats, and I swear I even heard him bark a couple of times.

We got him back in August and the only reason we brought him home was because Spunky wanted him. There were these girls with a basket with two kittens in it. They put the basket down, Spunky stuck his face in it, and Merlin instantly started throwing himself all over Spunky’s face. It was like we had to take him home because Spunky wanted him. We think that perhaps Merlin was taken from his mother too early and he’s imprinted himself onto Spunky, which is why he acts the way he does. He’s a neurotic little cat.

There was no point to this post really. I was just watching Merlin chasing his tail and it struck me that I never really mentioned his bizarre behavior here. So now you know.

Crazy cat.




FlickR Updated!

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted photos on Flickr, but I finally got around to going through and organizing them.

Me

Look, it’s me! I was fooling around with the new digital camera we got at work. It’s really spiffy. It’s a Fujifilm Finepix something or other. It’s nice. My camera is crap compared to the quality this thing has. What I really want is a Nikon digital SLR. Oh god, I drool over those. So beautiful.

Currently watching ALF. Anyone remember that show? Wow, I love this show. Greatest show ever.




Twitter

I got a twitter a long time ago, but I’ve only recently started abusing it to its full extent. I simply forgot it existed. Now, I don’t have that problem (I sound like a bad infomercial). I downloaded Twitterfox, a plug-in for Mozilla Firefox. It’s really cool, and makes it incredibly easy to update my twitter at any moment. Speaking of my twitter, it’s here.

But yeah. I’ve jumped on the Twitter bandwagon. I want to take it one more step. Does anyone know of a good wordpress plug-in that will show my tweets (that sounds dirty) on my sidebar? I found a couple, but I’d like to hear other opinions.

What do you think?

Edit: Okay, so I just used Twitter’s code instead of a plug-in. It works fabulous! Go me.
