    I love the talk of food here. I think Downtown Abbey starts on tele tonight here in OZ
    Oh, Sunny, do watch it!!!! It is superb! I can imagine it appealing to Tawny (lots of feminist themes) Angel (gorgeous clothes) and Mr G (issues about the complexities of the traditional master/servant relationship, and work choices - domestic servant or wage slave in a shop/factory?) And lots of really cool pimped up cars for Bridge (sorry Rags, no scuba diving :H)

    I have a little frisson of pleasure at the start of each new episode!!!! But very pleased that I can download it onto my i-pad, where it takes 48 minutes to watch, instead of the 1 hour that it takes to watch on television! Why would anyone spend 12 minutes an hour watching ads???????

      right you lot, I'm going home!

      see you tomorrow - don't get up to too much trouble while I'm away!

      BTW - the foster kitten that we got a few weeks ago that spent most of the first week hiding behind the toilet and not making a peep now rules the house!! She has a particular penchant for chewing on our i-pod ear-phones, playing with Wookie's (very fluffy) tail, laughing at Betty when Betty hisses at her, and falling in the bath (at least once a week - you would think she would learn :H). She is definitely ready to be adopted - but we aren't teling the SPCA just yet!!!!

          Now I ask yers - what's the point in having a pimped-up car if you haven't got one of these? Sunny? Any on eBay?

                Any ideas on what to do with black beans? Went back to Indian shop and scored more samosa for all for lunch, mango pickle, fish curry paste, woodapple jam, lentils and said beans. I am disturbingly attracted to the jars...oh and more incense and a little burner thingy.

                        HP, Black beans are beautiful. You can put em in the blender with some salsa and some tasty cheese and heat a little, serve with corn chips as a dip. Or make a 7 layer dip. You do a layer of beans, salsa, cheese, heat in oven, then take out and top with red onion, tomato, guac, and them some sour cream, you can also black sliced olives, then serve with corn or tortilla chips. Yum.

                          K kids,
                          I guess I might head off to the shower, made it to the gym today. I am supposed to go out tonight for an acquaintances birthday. Normally I am all about staying in, and I am now, but I always flake so I will go. I wouldn't mind a shimmy or two on the dance floor. I'm sure someone will pressure me to drink but I know I won't.
                          I'm going to copy and paste what I put in the nest and put it here: So just tried to have a talk with hubs about the mod drinking. I am not planning anything, just putting it out there. Well, that talk ended poorly. The talk turned into if I ever drank again it would mean all the time I spent not drinking was for nothing. He later took this back when I brought this to his attention that it is a bull statement. Then he kept only relating my drinking to how it affects him or us, mostly him, nothing about how AL affects me. I think I was feeling he was being selfish. Then he got upset and started raising his voice while I maintained calm, and decided he didn't want to talk. Then when he wanted to talk 5 minutes later I said no thank you, I need to wait until I am not upset by the way you are speaking to me. I am not sure why I am so upset by his reaction, and why he can not have a simple conversation with me about AL when I have been spending a lot of time and effort into bettering myself by being AF. I feel a bit frustrated, going to head to the gym and come back and repost. Just needed to an outlet for my frustration. I guess people who have not been in our shoes do not know the commitment that it takes, the work you have to invest into yourself, and your future. I like drinking, I do, but I do not like what I become, what I feel, or what it does to me. It certainly dissipates your health, your mental state, and your self respect. Thanks for letting me vent. I know no one understands better than people here the frustrations that sometimes come along. Thank you.

                          Feedback welcome. Hope I am not over sharing.

                              Sunny - I dont know if you can "overshare"? And we're here if you want to vent.

                              I suppose that frustration you feel is probably coming back to trust issues and I guess only communicating when you're both in the right frame of mind is the answer. Probably sounds simplistic but I guess that is a time thing. Trust is not so easy to re-establish when people have been burned. Working through those day to day myself.
