    I've been running one mile in the morning and another in the evening on weekdays.

    Maybe a run on Saturday, too, but I usually take it easy on weekends.

    I should probably throw in some other form of exercise too, but eh.

    There was this award-winning guy on food network the other day who was very much against the "low and slow" method of cooking ribs. He cooked them at a really high heat for a short period of time, and designed a rub and stuff that would work perfectly with this

    This doesn't help you but you should have seen how fat he is. Waiting an extra day might be a blessing. Do some situps

    There was an insanely cute girl at my psych's office today.

    My dad suggested I break the ice by asking if she looks that good because she's bulimic.

    Unfortunately, her dad was right there and he looked scary.

    Also Dr. Estrada says I'm clinically depressed and going back on prozac, or trying out lexapro.

    Gotta do some research.

    What was his name?

    Cooking high and fast doesn't give the collagen time to break down properly. It also tends to make the ribs much less moist and delicious.

    my friends got these copper pot things that are a good substitute for other ways of slow cooking
    you put them in the oven with ribs and like, whatever the fuck else
    like we used ribs and onions and peppers and you gotta get some liquid in there too and spices and crap, and then you put it in the oven for like the whole day and then you take em out


    and then well we like to put some bbq sauce and put em on the grill really high really quick for a bit just to add some crisp

    Even the slowest braisings take like four hours. Mine usually takes three.

    24 hour rest in the fridge after applying the dry rub, braise till the bones turn, make a glaze out of the braising liquid, then broil for a very short time.

    Grilling ribs is a bad idea. Don't do it. Either barbeque them or just do it in the oven.

    I wasted 15 minutes of a person trying to sell me magazine subscription's time before telling them to fuck off.

    When they asked me why, I told them that's what it feels like to have your time wasted before wishing him a good day and riding off on my bike.

    I don't know why but this makes me feel more complete as a person.

    Well, maybe Marsh is stopped constantly by these people and is generally too polite to tell them to take a hike immediately?
