Fallout New Vegas describes the world

6pm on a Sunday

Tyrone is playing Fallout New Vegas. He's in Camp McCarran talking to NCR Rangers and we're inhaling chips and a dip I made out of cream cheese and salsa with chips. Not the best snack but dinner won't be ready for a while.

We're making Moroccan slow-cooker chicken that's going to be insane. here's what's in it:

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 2 inch pieces
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
3 fresh peaches - peeled, pitted and sliced
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained
1 cup chopped dried apricots
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/3 cup slivered almonds, toasted

needless to say the apartment smells amazing and we're making up for it by inhaling this unhealthy snack until we can devour that tastiness over some couscous.

plus I've been running three miles every other day so I don't feel too bad.

it's weird to be running on a treadmill, for years my huge boobs made it impossible to run on anything but an elliptical which is bo-ring. something about a treadmill is better, easier, maybe it's that the found keeps coming at you instead of you moving over it. I don't know. I just think about it all the time. like, all the time.

last night Ty went to a potluck our friends hosted and brought ginger beef, but I had a headache and was tired from painting the office all week and running all those miles and being stressed out so I stayed home and watched 12 Monkeys, part of Marie Antoinette and then Vertigo.

Vertigo was amazing but I can't get behind Kim Novak's drawn-on eyebrows

I get that it's the 1950's style but I just don't think the go with her hair. maybe that's the point. now I'm cruising around the 'vintage' section on easy because I'm inspired by the classy decor of the Vertigo movie sets and also the music from the video game.

now Tyrone is throwing phones around and doing drugs.

I mean in Fallout, sillies.
