I’m trialling the new Australian streaming service Stan, so the Snook and I have finally started watching Deadwood. I was getting a little lost in the stylised dialogue for the first few episodes so I googled to see if I could find any recaps. To my surprise, TWOP came up. I thought it closed down last year! Instead, the fan outrage seems to have convinced NBC to keep the archives up. I happily started reading the first recap and then ran into trouble when subsequent pages kept timing out or getting stuck in a redirect loop. I guess that while NBC kept the site up, they sure as hell aren’t doing any maintenance on the servers. Just as I was starting to get really, really frustrated, I found the answer: TWOP One Pager. That awesome little online tool allows you to paste in a TWOP recap link, and it will then fetch all the pages and combine them into a single document. It works great, even on the crappy archives. Highly recommended!
Also highly recommended: Deadwood. Damn. Although the more I watch, the more the, uh, colourful vernacular threatens to impinge on my own vocabulary. I almost called the cat a c**ksucking hooplehead this morning.
Breakfast: Coffee with coconut cream
Lunch: Green salad with tuna, bacon, and baby beetroot
Snack: Apple
Dinner: Carrot and cardamom soup with some sauteed prawns
Breakfast: Apple and a couple handfuls of almonds; black coffee
Lunch: Leftover Paleo Tex Mex casserole
Dinner: Apple Dijon Burgers (no bun of course!) and oven-baked sweet potato fries
@drkknits Just name-checked you in a blog post. You will be amused, I think. 🙂
@drkknits I winced at the bit about being sarcastic to make yourself look smarter. We, uh, do that a lot in my house. 🙁
Just pulled the trigger on some vintage bedroom furniture I’ve been coveting. Time to book the @GoGet van! http://t.co/BBCR0uzu4V
Discovered that Shonen Knife don’t actually go onstage til 10pm. Hm. We’re old people. This sucks!
Anyone in the Inner West interested in last minute (free) tickets to Shonen Knife tonight? Just message me!
@gilmae 10pm! The tickets said 7pm. That’s so not fair.
@gilmae So lame. Fully acknowledged lame. Lame as charged.
@gilmae On the plus side, it was the cheapest concert tickets I’ve ever bought in Sydney so I don’t feel too bad about piking.
