Chocolate Chip Pasta Salad

So I think I'm addicted to pasta salad.

Remember that salad I had to bring for the work bbq the other day? Well, I accidentally made way too much, or maybe no one ate any... Anyway, I had a big bowl full of it, so that's all I ate all weekend. The thing is, I loved it so much, and I loved that it just sat in the fridge waiting and ready for me, I made another bowl full just for me. I also made chocolate chip cookies the other day (funny how being broke makes you cook a lot 'cause you've gotta use what you have...) and for whatever reason (I reeeally have to learn more about ingredients and such) they didn't melt down like regular cookies do, so I sat staring at the big scoopfuls of dough in the oven for a good ten minutes after they should've come out, not bothering to stick a fork in one 'cause they looked exactly the same as when they first went in. Needless to say, they're a bit hard, and I made two pans of them. At this point, they taste a lot like Chunky Chips Ahoy, but due to their round shape, are a little awkward to bite into. My point with all of this is that I've been living off of chocolate chip cookies and pasta salad and cans of lentil soup while I spend eight hours a day sitting on my ass, which means that I may have to surrender in my battle against jeans and just buy some new ones in a bigger size.

In other news, Salty Spokes has a  big event coming up, and if you're not there, I won't consider you my friend anymore. Oh and if you're a guy, I'm tired of hearing excuses that you don't have any girl friends to bring, 'cause this isn't an excuse for you to meet girls, it's an excuse for us to recruit more females. :)
