trinity theory

last night was a vintage new beginnings evening. turkey burgers? check. girls asking why everything we eat is whole wheat? check. girls turning their noses up to things like avocados? triple check.
also, for the last few weeks, jess and i have been surviving each day with the knowledge that with the evening will come ice cream. flavor is not really important, though, double fudge brownie, peanut butter cup, coffee, and cappuccino chip seem to be the actors in our little play. let us not forget our hot fudge topping, vital as it is.
so after our feast of turkey burgers, nick had gone out to study, which means ice cream in nick and jess' room, and theorizing on LOST. now, neither of us intend to get into such passionate exchanges about john locke, that crazy time-warp-wheel-thing, or the second plane crash, it just happens.
over the past several weeks, i have sinned. i have not committed my heart fully to the LOST experience. i have watched while puttering around the computer, or talked the entire episode. i do repent, and i did fully accept a rebuke last night regarding my behavior.
the dvr'ed version of LOST is both a blessing and a curse. because every other scene, and many times 4 times per scene, i will stop it and suggest a ridiculous theory. or just say something stupid, because i haven't been watching it closely the last few episodes.
but last night, while jess was ironing her sheets (that's right, as nice as the sheets felt after ironing..come on, if i had to take one thing off of your list of things to do, that might be it), we came to a conclusion that could only come from a place of true divinity.
God=Jacob
Jesus=John Locke
Holy Spirit=Smoke Monster (in our house, it is lovingly called the Pepper Monster)

right now
right now, i am sitting in our tv room. we all have a tolerate/hate relationship with this room, as it proves to be a dumping ground for sloth-like behavior and week old food (not so lovingly referred to as 'the dungeon'). generally, the only thing that brings me in this room is the dvr. most fridays around lunch i can be found here watching grey's anatomy from the night before. i have a very small number of episodes left to watch while i still live in the same city where it fictitiously takes place. back when grey's anatomy used to be a good show, seattle seemed all coffee-filled and cozy, you know because of all the rain, and i thought people wore chunky sweaters and ate soup 365 days a year.
honestly, my perception of seattle isn't crazy far from that after living in the area for almost a year. though, i will say, puyallup is a long way from seattle. or maybe, more accurately, reality is a long way from primetime drama.

today:
- our new girl moves from room to room so that she is never sitting in the same room as me. i have to think of it as funny.
- one of my favorite bloggers came back to her blog today, after several months of recovery after a plane crash. check NieNie out.
- i have not showered yet, and am still in my clothes from the run i went on last night.
- i am drinking cold coffee.
- still looking intently for a job.
- found a cute little duplex in charlotte. in my price range, in a great neighborhood, now i just need a way to pay for it:)
BAKED update: jess and i tried out two new recipes from the baked cookbook, they were awesome. the brownies were the best i've ever tasted. email me if you want the recipe: lehogan@gmail.com
