Hey, 2009. Time to leave, yet?

[rebness]

I bought a (frozen) Canadian lobster from the supermarket today, for £4. It's sitting in my fridge and I am awake at 2am* wondering what to do with it tomorrow. I feel like I should cook something special, but don't want lobster thermidor. It's freezing, so no lobster salad. I don't have sushi rice. My life is hard.

I feel like the best thing to do would be some baked potatoes or loaded skins, lobster and corn on the cob. I don't think I have corn on the cob and am not going anywhere until Christmas because of that absolutely terrifying black ice on the roads, so I may end up having it with, er, baked beans or something. Ah, well. £4.

In other news, am attempting to write more and kind of winning, except for IRL daring to trespass on my dreamytimes. How very dare it? I have a project coming up to try and aid My Great 2010 American Trip but that's in the air until the beginning of January, I think.

Quick meme, ganked from wiebke :

List the towns or cities where you spent at least a night away from home during 2009. Mark with a star if you had multiple non-consecutive stays.

Rome, Italy
Tunis, Tunisia
Zakynthos, Greece*
Athens, Greece
Amsterdam, Netherlands*
Andorra la Vella, Andorra
Messina, Sicily, Italy
Sitges, Spain*
Scarborough, England
London, England
Cork, Ireland

Ho hum. Hurry up, Christmas. :D 

*Not losing sleep because of lobster. My internal clock has decided that I am nocturnal.

I'll take no suggestions from someone who doesn't know what to do with lobster.

I CAN'T BELIEVE you bought frozen Canadian lobster, instead of fresh and local lobster. Don't you even care about your carbon footprint? Not to mention the day in the future when lobsters take over the earth?

LOCAL LOBSTER. From the Mersey? Do you actually want me dead, bb? Dead!

We don't have fresh local lobsters, so thankfully there shall be none breaking into my house come the apocalypse. Unless they learn to drive, in which case they'll have one over me.

Now excuse me whilst I open a bottle of Hardy's to go with my dulce de leche.

Do you think the lobsters won't learn how to colonise the earth? Humans did it, so how hard can it be? FEAR THE CRUSTACEAN TAKEOVER.

She claims she knows how, but don't believe her. She'll just try to impersonate your aunt or something. What a lier.
