I just made the most godawful brownies in the history of the world. from a mix for chrissakes. this reminds me of the time I managed to fuck up Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. I make my own pancakes from scratch. I am capable of making complex pies, cookies, cakes, muffins, and thanksgiving fucking dinner from scratch but the one time I think to myself: 'self you are lazy and do not have cocoa, perhaps a nice brownie mix from the store on the corner would be good' I fuck it up.

I'm serious y'all. Hagrid would be afraid to eat these brownies. I very nearly broke my knife trying to cut one. And they took twice as long as the box said to bake before I had to give up and call them done. They went from boiling liquid goo to rock hard in like, two hours once out of the oven. I have created the ice nine* of brownies.

Also? When I took that walk to the store? I totally locked myself out of my apartment and had to wait an hour for maintenance to come and let me in.

On the upside:

-My House download only has 17 minutes left.

-I bought the first and second volume of Warren Ellis' Transmetropolitan on ebay earlier today.

-I got frustrated with globat's seeming inability to work with firefox and their lame support staff and switched to dreamhost instead. If any of you are interested in signing up with them you can use the promo code KILLERSTAR and get an entire year for only $22.40 (normally $9.95/month).

-And I scored a 165 on my second practice LSAT, which puts me in pretty good running to get the 170 I want (and also puts me safely in the 90th percentile of test takers.)

PS. I'm thinking about changing my lj username to mutinous, would that be weird/obnoxious/annoying/hard to get used to? Should I do it? Should I not? Let's take a poll.
