In this post, I am going to meme. I know, horror shock etc.
The heavily pregnant![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sangga wants me to give details of five guilty pleasures. I am doing this meme even though I am hardly guilty about anything, so these are less my guilty pleasures, and more just pleasures, although they would totally be guilty if I had a different sort of mind set. I'm totally humouring the pregnant lady.
1. Curry. Primarily the act of preparing and cooking thick, paste-y curries that take two hours of bubbling away on the stove to be edible, but also other sorts of curries, like a rendang with roti, or a quick (relatively quick) green curry filled with bamboo shoots and bok choi. I make all my curries from scratch - my own powder from scratch and everything, and I love that. It is an excellent way to spend an afternoon.
2. Children of Dune. As you all know, I can watch Children of Dune constantly. I finished watching it last night, and went to bed, and as I'm on the late shift today I have two options: one, I can go training, and two, I can watch Children of Dune again. It is just such a visually stunning series, all the golds and browns. I just wish they'd kept the deep purples for costuming of the Dune miniseries.
3. Stuff for archery. I don't mean the equipment, here, although fletching new arrows or installing new bits of equipment onto my bow gives me a little buzz. What I mean is all the training I do to improve my archery. There is the actual archery practice itself, but I also go to the gym once a week, swim twice a week, and go to pilates once a week, as well as do SBT with a theroband every morning. Doing things that make me exhausted at the end in different ways makes me ridiculously happy.
4. Writing. I shouldn't do it. I have so many other things to do, because there is always something that I need to do, but when I finish writing something, when I've tweaked it and tweaked it until I love it so much I want to cuddle it, then I feel so ridiculously pleased with myself. Which is why it sucks, all the things I write but never post because they are in fandoms so small they count as a fandom of one. Because I will never be appreciated for my genius. *weeps*
5. Spending a lot of money. Yeah, totally. I love shopping, hokay? Hokay. Yesterday I bought a red couch, and it is AWESOME.
SPECIAL NOTE NUMBER 6. Meals with friends. Going to peoples' houses for dinner, inviting people around, going out to breakfast or dinner or having a picnic on the foreshore. I don't care if I'm preparing the food or not, but I love eating with friends.
Okay, I tag plastics, unless they've already done, plus Kathe, who's totally still not around.
And other people can feel free to ask me my top fives, though I won't get around to them until Sunday.
