on the cheap

missed the Fighters game last night when Darvish almost pitched a no-hitter. *sadface*

Hit up Marty's for their 2 for 10 buck wine section. Tequila was out of the budget, so i figure i'd sangria it up for messy taco night.
it was gone before dinner:

*sad face*

The only not-so-blurry photo i got of Okajima from the Red Sox-Rangers final on the 7th.
At least i got his post-release head snap.

picked up shaved steak for dinner.

the Hayashi rice i started making at 11pm last light. 4 hours on the stove simmering, until it was a chunky delicious mess. all the shaved steak i used fell apart. i like my hayashi this way rather than a thinner sauce. since i made alot i used a whole bottle of red wine. i ate a shitload, so good, and still have alot that i put in individual bags in the freezer for whenever i need my hashed beef fix.

i like making salad dressing

Chicken pillard and mixed greens and Kendall Jackson Grand Reserve. good shit.

dressing is lemon juice, capers, parmesan cheese, mayo, olive oil and salt/pepper.

i have the best photoshop skills

WHOA FUCK. a live action BECK. i've always wished for this. and hello, AWESOME FUCKING CAST.
i've read a few complaints...oh a bunch of pretty boys, Sato Takeru can't act, he was terrible in Kamen Rider Den-O, all the usual things that dudes tend to bitch about whenever hot guys get cast in movies/dramas that make girls who potentially wouldn't be interested, want to see it.
but shit, BECK is all sorts of awesome, and a hot cast makes it that much better. who cares about acting abilities when it comes to live action manga adaptations anyway.

Kiritani Kenta is sooo perfect as Chiba.

but who's going to play Maho?
somehow i can see Kitagawa Keiko or Toda Erika since i'm assuming given the ages of the actors, that they will be older in the movie than they are in the manga.
