Just sitting here minding my own business (working) when suddenly Badly Drawn Boy's "Silent Sigh" came on the iPod and infused me with a little happy/sad jolt and the sudden desire to watch About a Boy again. Wow, I love that song. And the movie too. The book - aint' bad either. But can someone tell me why the IMDB page shows the French poster for the film?


Last night I kicked off my healthy New Year by making a super-yummy recipe that involves chickpeas, curry spice, mango chutney and bulghar. Had it for lunch today. I also made these very very healthy muffins that do not taste like ass. Don't be scared, check out the recipe and consider making them if you're looking for something that's good and good for ya.

Also, was listening to the Gonzales hearings on NPR today in the car and I just have to ask -- Why do we let people get away with these lame-ass "I don't remember the details of that" type of answers? I'm sorry but you are in a high position that affects millions of lives and you are paid the big bucks to be in this position and you have people who help you organize/accomplish/remember everything, so tell me again why you can't remember what you thought of what, when, where and how. Fuck.
