Daily report
Phil swung by and we hung out for a bit. I was showing him some Jeet Kune Do, teaching him the stance and a few simple attacks and defensive tactics. He seems to pick up on it somewhat, though he suffers from premature dementia as far as I'm concerned and therefore has a inability to retain anything.
After shooting the shit we headed to Trader Joe's. I was talking with him about how girls at Trader Joe's stacked up against those who shopped at Whole Foods. It seemed abundantly clear that Whole Foods is the victor. Most trixies and yuppified city gals get dressed up to go there on Friday nights husband shopping, desperate to bump into single elligible bachelors that look like George Klooney or Richard Gere and happen to have even sexier incomes than mere attractiveness. That's when the thought struck me that maybe there should be a Whole Foods hookup, a dating/social website for those who's social lives are hinged upon that place. After all, I'm pretty certain none of the fools that go there actually know how to cook anything besides mac & cheese. Phil actually met his Peruvian girlfriend at Trader Joe's...I think in the Deli Section, or was it the seafood section? I'll have to ask him about that.
He's a Greek cat from my past, and when he used to live in Chicago one of my closest buds. He's quite smart when he focuses, almost as smart as I am...though he tends to brood allot, what about I haven't the damndest clue. Phil's definitley more of a drifting vagabond than even I am, perhaps more resilient toward change as well. At times he's still stuck in Phil world though, too much so as to make me want to strangle him and scream at him, hahah. But in a sick way I sorta like that, someone who can actually annoy me is quite impressive indeed.
I bought a plastic bottle of mango-lemonade, a 6 bottle case of grolsch amber ale, and a bar of fancy schmancy milk chocolate.
Dinner:
I oven baked some swordfish steak fillets, and marinated it with a lemon-garlic-vodka sauce. A good technique for fish is to make some slits on either side then insert some lemon wedges in them. Black pepper and seasalt are mandatory spices, a little lime, and a sprinkle of sugar too. I always use garlic, it's supposed to be ultra good for you as well health wise. Jasmine rice & brocolli as sides, damn I eat so healthily it's almost disgusting. I guess guzzling beer and chomping on chips and chocolate balances it all out.
My girlfriend and I watched some episodes of Weeds that I downloaded. The word on the street is that its a good show, but it seemed so dull in comparison to Rescue me. Even Dexter is outshone by it. Dexter is well written, but its too lethargic in its overall feel and attitude. I like that adrenalized drama flowing, like in 24. Dexter's a bit too intellectualized. Cecile started to shop n surf on her new imac that I didn't buy for her while I was idly watching Resident Evil 3: Extinction and was amazed at how horrid it was. The budget must have gone straight into Milla Jovovich's bank account. Seemed like the janitorial staff who was working at some other movie set got their hands on a trashed script for some stupid zombie flick, spruced it up with shit they seen in Mad Max movies and pitched it to another movie house.
