What I've Learned Lately

1. The wrong way to cook fish. Take two salmon fillets. Roll in mix of kosher salt and chipotle powder. Broil till crispy. Creating a salt crust: Interesting in theory, awful in execution. I believe the Boyfriend's assessment of the first bite was, "WHOA!" And not in a good way.

Bless his heart, he ate his entire portion (between big gulps of water).

2. When The Boy's not home, the TV might as well turn into a big garbage pail considering the stuff I watch in his absence. Last night's highlights: A show about removing a 200-pound tumor (ew!); three episodes of Newlyweds (they are soooo breaking up); one episode of the Ashlee Simpson Show (girlfriend's mom needs to back the heck off there, what with the criticizing of the new hair and all. Gah.).

3. Spring is coming...someday, once the weather makes up its positively schizo mind. Friday--40s. Saturday--50s. Yesterday--Snowing.

4. For various reasons, I've been cleaning some old things out of my desk at work. This includes the wedding mags. As with many couples, we've reached an understanding: He promises not to fuss about the magazines that I love and of which he disapproves, provided I keep them out of his eyesight. That worked until this week, when I unloaded two years (about 10 pounds) of such magazines in the living room.

So far, he's been pretending not to notice.

No, I haven't noticed them a bit. One of my Sharpies, however, did notice the magazines. Since I didn't notice the mags, I know nothing of what happened, but I presume it's not pretty. =-)
