SVU Tuesday > Taco Tuesday

Tuesday is upon us again. If there is one thing to anticipate on Tuesday even more than an indulgence of cheap tacos, it's a plethura of awesome SVU episodes. Whoever decided to broadcast a Law and Order: SVU marathon every Tuesday surely knew how to liven up a semi-eventful day that could otherwise be spent getting fat off good old Americanized Mexican food. I would call Tuesday "SVUesday" from now on, but it might take too much effort to add two more syllables to one day of the week while all of the others are still only two syllables each.

Law and Order: SVU has a great way of making life look so much better on this side of the fence when all seems a little more gloomy. If nothing else, I can watch and say, "Sure, my life has been rough, but at least I don't have to deal with this!" Of course, there is only so much I can take on before I realize that I need a feel good Disney movie immediately after marathoning. It's all right, when tacos fail to hit the spot, SVU sure does nail it right on. And BD Wong is awesome too. Okay they're all awesome.



Speaking of Asians, I would pay good money (once I have it) for Jackie Chan's Mandarin and Cantonese versions of "I'll Make a Man Out of You". I can only hope that a little bit of luck and searching will lead me there. I'd better keep that in mind three months from now. Hooray for Christmas! (And I suppose an extra hooray for birthdays is in order too.)

But to conclude on an SVU related note, I am also a big fan of the SVU drinking game which I appropriately play with a heavy and/or nasty tasting soda, and I just might do so before the next episode begins:



I have realized that lately I don't have very many days where I have this time to relax at home for a little bit longer than a few minutes running in and out. Being antisocial is a bugger (and reminds me that I could be turning even more into my father than I already am), but being relaxed is extremely helpful at the moment.
