i went to two (2) christmas parties tonight, one at leah and will's and the other at joe's. both households have really really cute cats, and i want one. mike bought me this book for my birthday, and i have been reading it last night and much of today while waiting for my tires to get changed. (which is a whole other story... the end of which is that i have three new tires on my car and one old bald one. thanks, walmart.) i really want a cat!
speaking of reading books, last night (before i started in on the cat book) i read joe's book, the feral chicken of clayton. short stories (ok, these are essays, to be precise) are my favorite thing to read, especially when they're mostly non-fiction, as these are. i laughed out loud at least four times. very well written. pat on the back for joe. go buy a copy.
at the first party, we had a discussion about egg nog. here's how some of it went:
j.j.: what's in the egg nog?
will: egg... and...
me: nog.
*pause*
me: i figure it could be like chocolate milk. two ingredients... chocolate and milk. hence, chocolate milk.
will: well, i always thought "nog" could be a process. like you could "nog" pretty much anything. like pork nog.
then someone mentioned hearing about a guy who tried to create a pork martini. being a fan of the very wide variety of martinis at my local martini bar, i was sickened, but kind of interested, so i decided to investigate further. this is what i came up with.
(Were any animals were harmed during the course of this experiment? Of course! The pork animals!)
/begin post. (since it was so backwards... yeah, i need to go to bed.)
