stir crazy

today was the day i wore my new suit out. its a fresh pinstripe with low lapels. i need to find more reasons to wear it. after i went to church, me and maggot went to smiths and got some chicken and pesto and cream and broccoli, canada dry, tortellini and marinara, and kettle chips salt and pepper chips. when we got to maggots house i mixed the cream with the pesto in a skillet and started the saucing process and let the ream and pesto simmer for a bit. i added a little red wine vinegar and salt and chili powder and black pepper, then put the chicken breasts, whole, in the skillet with chopped broccoli. i let that sit and simmer for about 45 minutes, occasionally stirring and adding more cream (the cream cooks down quite a bit). while i was waiting for this heavenly concoction to finish maggot whipped up the tortellini and i had a big ass bowl of that and i snacked on the s&p chips and had a few ginger ales. finally the broccoli chicken creamy pesto was done and i ate it up. so good. maggot was too full to eat her half, so i'm eating it for lunch tomorrow. it was super good. i can jut taste the red wine vinegar and the pesto doesn't overpoer the aste of the borccoli or the chicken. i count this as a successful experiment. i love playing around with food in the kitchen. i think ext time i do this i'll add spinach. after we ate we watched a few episodes of voltron then fell asleep. for lie 4 hours. the hell. i was supposed to go to rachel and lia hunts house for crepes, but by the time i woke up all the crepes were gone and so were all the people. i didn't really want to stay inside so i decided to see what alicia was doing. she was going to keri's house so i went to go meet up. cassie and maggot couldn't decide if they wanted to go or not about every 3 seconds. it was like when hank and dean were helping dr. venture to repair the "problem" on gargantua 1 and the problem light started blinking:
hank: its on!
dean: now its off!
hank: its on!
dean: its off
hank: on!
dean: off!
hank: on!
dean: off!
dr.venture: boys, thats called blinking!
thats how i felt about maggot and cassies indecision tonight.
then when they finally decided to come with i felt like the king with the singing son in the tower. and maggot and cassie were the guards.
i almost went out of my mind.
so when we got to keri's we hungout for a bit then walked over to her cousin myrons house where there were supposd to be waffles. no waffles. strike two. after hanging out there for a while i got bored and walked mical home. she had a dog named boo radley. she said he lived up to his name. i asked her if he accidentally killed someone with scissors as they walked by. she said no. i walked her home because i don't trust provo. the people here aren't as innocuous as everyone wants to believe. i'm pretty convinced this place is the sexual predator capital of the world. even though i have no factual basis, i don't trust guys here to not stalk and take advantage of women. especially under the guise of shiny return missionary BYU student. i then went to maggots and now she's taking me home. along with that leftover chicken broccoli pesto. mmm
