I'm watching Iron Chef on SBS right now - the opening sequence reminds me of a truly weird crossover idea Gerg and I had whilst staying at Dande's house:
Hellblazer/ Iron Chef.
It works! Really, it does! You have the demonic host, the imprisoned souls of the chefs, John getting dragged into the whole mess and posing as an assistant to one of the challenging chefs and being really, really bad at it...
And at least tonight's episode isn't the octopus one. Otherwise I'd have to turn it off. But considering this crossover idea, maybe I should any way. *grins*

I called [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] today in Toronto, and realised it's been almost a month since we'd last been in touch, which was kind of scary. We were good, though, and stuck to the three hour limit provided by my international phone calls scheme.
It's only a couple of months before I see her. This is a good thing. :)

After work drinks got a tad out of hand last night, with Steve and I ending up in the backpacker place near the 9th Ward. It was full of people watching the first World Cup rugby game - I think Australia won, but there was a little too much beer to be sure. I did, however, get a guy's phone number without even trying. Another Michael - what is it with me and Michaels and Davids? I think I'll give him a call tomorrow - sufficient time to not look desperate, but not so much that he forgets who I am. ;) At this stage of things, it'd be nice to go on a date - I haven't done that since university, really. I'm not really after nookie, just a nice time with someone new, talk, fun, maybe a little bit of kissing... The ego could do with a bit of stoking, and having someone wanting to get to know me is the best way I know. :)
I took advantage of my non-busy day today to get some chores done - laundry, vaccuming, dishes, and the routine Turning Of The Mattress, something I need do do every couple of weeks with using the sofa bed - the bars start coming through and hurting my shoulderblades and hips if I don't. And now I'm planning to make dinner - all this food talk from the Iron Chef is making me hungry. Nothing so elaborate, though - steamed veggies (I have brussel sprouts! yum!) and some rice, I think. I need my clensing diet after last night's excesses...
