Its Saturday - whatcha doin'?

Subject: Its Saturday - whatcha doin'?

I got up and drove to Midtown to return a rental car I had for work. Came home, had some coffee. Got a sandwhich at the bodega on the corner of Bergen/Underhill. Then sat on my fire escape and smoked a cigar. Now, watching football while mindlessly surfing. Oh, and I'm drinking a bourbon.

Yup, I'm bored.

oops. time for me to get cracking.

Took in some laundry, replied to e-mails, killing time 'til I go see King Kong tonight.

I'm on hold with Apple customer support. Good times!

Well... NOW I'm wishing that I had a pipe (tobacco, people...) and a scotch... well, shit, I guess that I have the scotch, just gotta pour it, but alas, no pipe.

Smoke weed, you won't need that scotch.

I wonder if we can get them to start serving Spam...


Mmmm..... Spam............

I'd be really psyched if they offered a basket of tater tots.

Gross.
My Saturday was spent getting gifts at Atlantic terminal. (did anyone else get swarmed by suit-clad reps from the church of jesus christ of latter day saints?)
Then I spent another 3 hours on the computer getting more gifts. Then I got drunk.

I hung around my room all day in my sweats in the dark before my HS friend came over. Then we went to a house party with a show and I had champagne and strawberries and rum and saw friends from college I haven't seen in forever. Then I went to Williamsburg to meet up with Alafairnadia and talked about my blog like a dumbass. And then we came back to the neighborhood and had Crown chicken and stayed up too late. Great Saturday night!

Done and done.

"You've got peanut butter on my bacon..."

"You've got bacon in my peanut butter..."

(Are all you guys too young to get this?)

Okay, so I haven't personally tried it, but why not?!

Bacon goes well with anything...

PB goes well with anything (apples, bananas, celery, chocolate... and where was jelly before PB?!)...

Why wouldn't they be good together?!

It's from a Reese's peanut butter cups ad from the early 1980s.

I like bacon.

I do believe that is a reece's p-butter cup reference?? no?

Wasn't Elvis known to like a pan-fried sandwich containing bacon, peanut butter and bananas? And they say it was the drugs that killed him... (actually, I think it was ethchlorvynol, also known as Placidyl).

Ohh, I definitely don't remember that one. I think the oldest commercial I can remember is for Life cereal.

I'm not sure if bacon was included in his sandwich, but if so, I've a new-found respect for the man!

Apparently, the Presley family maintains that the original sandwich did not contain bacon.

However, most recipes that I've seen for it do include bacon.
