Los Mo~F-in'~Jitos

Super Mario is a prick and I hope he goes to hell.
I've been playing video games for approximately 17 years (a somewhat conservative estimate). I'm not very good at them but I'm not that bad either. The Mister has been playing even longer and we both have turned into animals of pure rage because of this f-ing game. Mister has a LOT of patience and I saw him actually bite the controller*. I can say with definition that if a 5 year old dressed as Mario showed up at my door last night I would've punched him in the face.
I must beat this game before the descent into madness is complete. That and I reallllly want to get Dante's Inferno but we made a rule to not get another game before we complete the one we have... they're too expensive.

I have LMFAO's "shots" song stuck in my head. It's pretty awful in there today.

Also been thinking of what to do for my "container" garden this year... 2 years ago I built the "dirt coffin" on our patio. It wasn't actually a coffin (didn't want to scare the new neighbors right out of the gate) it was just a coffin sized box of dirt with a mosaic on it. My rose bushes blasted the grout and tiles off by the end of the year. I just didn't build it well enough. Which is fine cause I was getting tired of it but was a HORRIBLE experience to get rid of the damn thing. I almost decapitated one of those little blue lizards that live around here with a shovel. Poor guy... all nice and snugly in his cool dirt house and then BLAMMO!! here comes a shovel screwing it all up.
I'd also like to point out that this particular shovel was a lend from Sister and THAT, my friends, means trust. Sister doesn't lend her shovel to anyone. She's a shovel adept. No! She's a shovel High Mage. I think if it wouldn't get weird orange dirt stains all over her house, she'd sleep hugging that shovel. Well, she is an archaeologist after all...
Garbage Picker ;P

Where was I? Right! Container garden. I have lots of ideas but no monies so I need to think of a way to use stuff I already have and make it nice and not look like the dump is randomly sprouting rosemary and tomatoes.
I wonder if that happens... I mean random plants growing at the dump from discarded fruits. I imagine it would. I suppose I could be a dumplady and find out but then there's that whole finding discarded human heads potential and I just don't think my delicate sensibilities could handle it. I am a fairy princess.
heh heh heh

I could totally bury that mario game with a shovel at the dump. Just thinking about SM is making my blood pressure go up.
SM? Huh... makes sense
I think I need multiple Mojitos. Here's my fav recipe

Ingredients
1 half lime cut into chunks
3 mint sprigs roughly chopped
1 Tbspn sugar (I like using brown but any type will do)
1/3 cup cold club soda (or seltzer)
2 1/2 Tbspn coconut rum (or any rum for that matter)

Since I don't have any fancy pants masher thingy I just smash stuff in a cocktail shaker or bowl
1. put mint, lime and sugar into a container for which you can mix all stuff and easily pour into a glass
2. smash up limes/mint with a fork or hammer
(2.5. If you'd like a cold mojito, add ice to your glass)
3. pour in soda to lime mix
4. pour in rum to taste and stir it up
5. pour into glass, add tiny pirate sword**, consume, repeat from step 1. until you read bowl as blow or stab yourself in face with tiny pirate sword


*and then I laughed. A lot.
** please note tiny pirate sword fights are mandatory if there is more than one opposable thumbed being in the drink making area
