Jul. 19th, 2012 02:32 pmSo bored. Waiting for someone to finish a document. La la la.
We've had a wonderful rainy-ish day today. I never thought I'd be so happy to wake up to a cloudy sky because, damn, this drought's been a killer. And then I got to spend lunch at the Farmers' Market that occasionally shows up on the Capitol lawn during the summer. It's a good thing I'd just cashed my paycheck because I bought EVERYTHING. I bought delicious tacos for lunch and some baclava. I bought organic dog treats and cheese and homemade soap and veggies (green beans, summer squash, and cucumbers) and smoked salmon and honey and oh my. I'll have to get out of town at some point and pick up some sweet corn and blueberries as well. And then I'll have ALL TEH NOMS!
Food is so delicious. I've been thinking about throwing together a big bowl of pasta salad. I bet those fresh veggies and the salmon would taste great in that. Decisions, decisions.
I caught that new show, Political Animals, over on USA and I enjoyed it muchly. The cast is awesome and it had women! talking to each other! and being awesome! It's not really subtle and the thinly-veiled Hillary Clinton hagiography can be kind of eye-rolly (okay Greg Berlanti, you think everything would be better if Hillary were the President, we get it) but Sigourney Weaver is awesome and they do a good job of showing how much harder the female characters have to work to be taken seriously.
Suffice it to say that I really enjoyed it and I'll be looking forward to catching the rest of the run. I love these short season shows. I wish US TV would do more of them.
I get to go see a little movie called The Dark Knight Rises on Saturday. omgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomg
