Whoah! What is that movie? xpost

I really don't feel like working. Or doing anything.

It sounds Spalding Gray-esque.

I still want to see Children of Men. I am bad at going to the movies.

For the record, my mom was on the debate team with him, but not his partner. Her debate partner was Steve's partner before she was my mom's though.

It's an excellent movie.

I thought it was great.

Ugh. I am feeling less and less well. My tummy is messed up. Reheated Chicago-style pizza with pepperoni for breakfast? Could that be it?

Oh yeah, and I have been cross-country skiing. In Austria. It was pretty fun, though a lot of work and very tiring.

xpost And yet, if someone put mozzarella sticks in front of me right now, i'd eat them. No questions asked.

So I'm the only one who thought this was brilliant?

This weather does suck a bit, but I'd rather it were warmer and snowy than the cold we've had for the last couple weeks. And no matter how snowy and slushy it gets, it's not that city in New York. 151 inches, I read? That's too much snow.

Observations on food: 1) instant oatmeal is a little yucky, but it is oatmeal, and that's better than no oatmeal. 2) if I thought I could get by with it, I would eat mozzarella sticks morning, noon, and night.

XPOST ... OR IS IT?

My parents have Super 8 home movies transferred to VHS of me XC skiing at like 2 years old. I started doing downhill in 7th grade or so. Tried a little tele but never got any good at it. Never tried snowboarding, I was afraid of the ass pain (from FALLING). I miss skiing a lot, I used to go every day after school until they turned the lights off on the hill.

HS: Did you ever go skiing at that little hill/park between E. Aurora and W. Seneca, NY? Can't remember the name but my aunt's house was right near the bottom of it.

I kind of made the free-association with "mozzarella sticks" and Buffalo sauce (both being staples of chain-restaurant appetizer menus) but I didn't get Buffalo mozzarella until just now, no.

I don't get it.

there to preserve disorder (kenan), Monday, 12 February 2007 19:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh, I see. I was unaware of something called Buffalo mozzarella.

there to preserve disorder (kenan), Monday, 12 February 2007 19:28 (seventeen years ago) link

Dan, no! I don't think I've ever even heard of it, though that seems impossible. I'm going to try to find out wat it's called.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Monday, 12 February 2007 19:29 (seventeen years ago) link

uh, what it's called.

horseshoe (horseshoe), Monday, 12 February 2007 19:29 (seventeen years ago) link

unless you're talking about K1ss1ng Br1dge? in which case, yes, I've skiied (sp?) there.

I would have assumed you meant from falling.

I may have screwed up the geography. Maybe it's toward South Wales? It's very small, and possibly associated with a larger local park.

I have been to Kissing Bridge, but I was pretty young then and don't remember a whole lot.

Mozzarella sticks ... with CLUB SAUCE

jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 12 February 2007 19:35 (seventeen years ago) link

SPICY!

danno martinez (danno martinez), Monday, 12 February 2007 19:36 (seventeen years ago) link

what exactly is club sauce, anyway? Is it a thing, or is it like house salad dressing?

It's a slightly sweet tomato-based sauce.

n/a (n/a), Monday, 12 February 2007 19:47 (seventeen years ago) link

I think it's just like 'House' dressing - that particular restaurant's special recipe.

Calico (calico), Monday, 12 February 2007 19:48 (seventeen years ago) link

or that

Calico (calico), Monday, 12 February 2007 19:49 (seventeen years ago) link

I always thought it was the stuff that comes with shrimp cocktail, but all these answers are probably valid.

That's what I assumed, too, since it was served at the country club in Arrested Development.

Like marinara? I guess I don't get to clubs enough. At least, not the kind with sauce.

At the grocery store the other day I found myself weighing purchasing a chunk of braunschweiger, but decided I wasn't ready for that step in my sandwich life, yet.
