I love boston market.

It’s just soo good. Where else can you get a decent meal for $7? No where. I’ve basically stopped cooking all together, apart from the cereal i am currently munching on, and some chicken and rice, I do not cook anything. I got to this point the first time i lived on my own but it feels more permanent now. I still enjoy cooking here and there, but the lack of a grill and funds for meat means that all that i was cooking was freezer food anyway. Pasta, pizza, fish fillets… the extent of my meals up until now was pulling something out of the freezer and “cooking” it.

It seems i’ve moved even beyond even that though. Between work and school i very honestly don’t have time to cook 4 days out of the week. The other 3 i just want to sit in my boxer briefs and play wii so cooking isn’t much of an option then either.

So i roam from restaurant to restaurant looking for something that resembles real food. Boston Market has precisely that…. not real food mind you but something that gives the feeling of a real meal. Not to mention the fact they have sweet potatoes year round.

It’s such a bachelor place though, i was at one just a few days ago and there was 1 woman and 7 men in the restaurant, that includes the staff.
They really should just turn the seating area into a big living room, that’s where everyone would be eating if they could anyway.
Couches and TVs, maybe a few ugly lamps for effect, just a big place where you can sit, eat and relax.

Slashdot had an interesting story today about Heinz’s commercial contest. The marketing people at Heinz think they all suck.
They do.
This is awesome news for me. My first submission will be done in a week and we are shooting the other concept this friday. We got all the costumes we need, now i just have to figure out how i’m going to survive jumping into a dumpster :]
We have a real chance of winning this thing, and that 50 large will go a long way to pay off my student loans.

I don’t identify myself as a hipster. It seems that i have cemented my status as one though.

I bought a turn table a few days ago and am excited to buy my first vinyl records this week. I’m not sure what my first real record will be (although the Flash Gordon soundtrack would be a good time), i roamed a few record stores here in tempe over the weekend and had a lot of fun. I’m not sure i really need a new hobby, but it’l be fun to hear music in that format.

I’m working on a new look for the site (yea that’s 3 in a year), it’l be done in a few days. The biggest change will be how my content is organized.
