Insert uncomfortable pause here.

Today, I had a rather unenjoyable day at work. It left me grumpy and annoyed and just in a bad mood. It was rather difficult trying to find something good that happened. So I watched tonights episode of "The Office" before coming down to do stuff I normally do before I go to bed. It was nice to sit down and watch a show that's so familiar and just unwind. They seem to be making Michael a bit less obtuse and I am able to watch without cringing for more than a few minutes at a time. I don't talk about it much but it continues to be one of my favourite shows.

Not as bad as I thought...

Apologies to all the "Bones" fans who watch it on FOX. Minor spoiler alert. Generally, when 'Global' has its act together, we get 'Bones' episodes a day early (when they don't, occasionally we don't get them). So I saw this weeks episode (that airs tomorrow on FOX) already. It was an enjoyable episode and that is all that I am going to say without getting into heavier spoiler territory. I was worried when I read the premise but it turned out better than I thought it would. That being said, today's favourite thing is getting TV shows a day early.
I apologize if that was still too spoilery, I really tried to say something without saying anything (if that makes any sense whatsoever).

it's greek to me...

Tonight was my night to make supper. I made chicken with feta. Basically, you put chicken breasts on a pan -you may choose to season them or not. Then you mix together feta cheese, tomato, mushrooms, possibly other vegetables, garlic (which I forgot tonight) and some spices. You then put the feta et al on top of the chicken and cook at 350 degress for 45 minutes (or until chicken is cooked thoroughly. I love chicken and feta. I didn't think I was going to like it but I ordered it at a local restaurant in Regina 3 or 4 years ago and absolutely loved it. It was made a bit differently but it was still quite good. Then my sisters started making it at home and it continues to be quite enjoyable.

A healthy choice for a change.....

Once again, I have to mention that my sister is awesome. She bought kohlrabi and cut it up so I could take it with me to work (as I may have mentioned previously, I like reaping the benefit without doing the work). I love kohlrabi. I am not entirely sure why. My mom always grew it in her garden and I always loved eating it. It's like a turnip but not as bitter. It is one of my favourite vegetables. Homegrown kohlrabi don't seem to get as big but they are homegrown so thatmeans they are pretty awesome in their own right.

Secret, secret, I got a secret!

Alas, this is yet another "Chuck"-related post. It tends to be the bright spot in my weeks and thus, has an almost unavoidable presence on my blog. I wrote about the season finale on Monday (well, I mentioned that it was awesome and that I wanted to save the show, but the post was about something else). Since Monday, I have been watching one particular sequence from the finale numerous times, because it was pretty awesome. It is related to the video I posted a couple weeks ago in that in contains the band JEFFSTER. In the sequence, JEFFSTER is performing "Domo Arigato, Mr.Roboto" whilst other events are transpiring.

Anyway, today when I woke up at 2:30pm (I worked an overnight shift last night), I went upstairs to find that my sister had also been rewatching that sequence - a few times, even. So I was quite relieve to find that I'm not the only one to repeatedly watch favourite scenes in TV shows. We watched the sequence a couple more times after that. I think we have had our fill for the time being, but who knows. My fingers are crossed for another season of "Chuck".

Cool treats

Today, my sister and I went to Dairy Queen. We were going to go on yesterday in celebration of her birthday (Happy Birthday, Colette!), but after supper we were just too full and we wanted to actually be able to enjoy the DQ We both tried the new Midnight Truffle Blizzard which was quite good. It has three of the things I like the most in the world: chocolate, more chocolate and ice cream. I usually get the Chocolate Extreme blizzard when I go to Dairy Queen, but decided to try the new one this time. Today's favourite things is Blizzards from Dairy Queen.

Thanks for the help..

Last weekend, my sister found a flyer for a series of job hunting seminars that were being held at the library. It was lucky that she found the flyer when she did because it turns out the seminars were being held all last week. I even managed to wake up in time to catch all three (Monday, Thursday, and today - Friday). I found the seminars to be very helpful. Even though I knew much of the information, it was nice for that information to be reinforced. I also found out some useful information that I didn't know before. I kind of wish that they had had things like that in the fall, but now is a good time as well. So today's favourite thing is job hunting seminars.
