I Love Jesse Pinkman

January 15, 2012

Lucky me, my evening involved this handsome guy:

Ok, well, sort of. Let me explain.

Mal and I planned to go see The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo tonight, but our dinner ended up taking longer than expected to cook, so we nixed going to the movie theater and bought Season 4 of Breaking Bad to watch at home instead, which meant that the handsome devil above was a significant part of my evening.

The above photo of Aaron Paul was sent to me by my friend Jon, who designed the sneakers he’s holding. I almost pissed myself when Jon sent me this photo earlier today. I’m a huge fan of Aaron Paul because I’m totally in love with his character Jesse Pinkman. I just want to make-out with him and help him sell drugs. Ok, only part of that is true.

Lunch

This afternoon’s lunch was half of my leftover burrito from Chipotle. It tasted just as delicious as it did yesterday! I finished off lunch with a dark chocolate Adora disk dipped into almond butter.

After lunch, I got started on one of my big goals for 2012: redoing my office!

I finally decided on paint colors: Azure Snow + an accent wall in Blue Twilight.

And bought them!

I also cleaned out my office in preparation for the painting party.

Snack

Mid-afternoon, I snacked on some Veggie Chips that were leftover from last night’s Patriots and Paleo get-together.

Dinner

For dinner, Mal made turkey burgers with salads on the side. That turkey burger might look small, but it was really thick and sat like a rock in my stomach!

While watching Breaking Bad, I snacked on some homemade granola and drank a couple of Harpoon Pumpkin UFO’s.

It’s way past my bedtime, so I’m heading straight to bed where I hope to dream about Jesse Pinkman.

Good night!

What? Did you know that Aaron Paul is from where I live? I recently started watching the first two seasons of Breaking Bad and am obsessed with imdb.com, so that’s how I found out. Never met the guy… probably wouldn’t even recognize him on the street.

Where do you get Adora disks? I see them all the time on here and am dying to try ‘em!

@Emily @ The Swallow Flies: I get them at Whole Foods, but the Adora website gives you other retail options as well.

i love those paint colors – subtle yet cheery! mmm chipotle burritos always make for some great leftovers. you’re right, they seem to always taste just as good as when you first order them.

I love Chipotle like there is no tomorrow. I love their chips and guac on the side. I can’t wait to see how your office turns out, you’re so good and getting things done.

Oh! I love organization and painting! Can’t wait to see your “new” office!

I love Aaron Paul too! I saw him once at a Halloween store near my house (in LA) and nearly died! Wish I would have talked to him!

Love the colors you chose! And those burgers look yummy- any chance of a recipe?

Reply

Tina January 16, 2012 at 9:02 pm

@Khushboo: Mal just threw them together, so there’s not really a recipe. Sorry! He said he put in Garlic Gold, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire Sauce.

I sometimes think Chipotle taste BETTER the next day? Why is that? I have one close to my home and I have to limit myself, otherwise I would be going all the time!

Olivia January 16, 2012 at 1:29 am

I’m jealous not to have a Chipotle near where I live in Canada – I think I’ve ever seen ONE when I was in Toronto (4.5 hours from my city). All we have is crappy Taco Bell.

I thought I was the only one with a weird fascination with Jesse Pinkman! He’s my favorite character on Breaking Bad, one of my favorite shows.

Hope the painting party went well. That sounds like a fun (and fast) way to get a room painted!

Breaking Bad is one of my favorite shows ever! We are so sad that the next season will be the last. It’s beyond brilliant. I want Walter and Jesse to be my BFFs. :)

Angela @ Happy Fit Mama January 16, 2012 at 5:04 am

I’ve never watched Breaking Bad but it sounds like I might need to catch up on previous seasons.

Painting always sounds like so much easy fun until you have to do the prep and clean up. :)

Good luck!

OK, I’m out of the loop and have no idea who Aaron Paul is haha! ;) But I can say that I lovee veggie chips. They are addicting!

I’ve never even heard of Breaking Bad or Aaron Paul! But he does look familiar… this is going to bug me until I look him up! :P

Oh! He was on an episode of Bones once – that’s how I recognize him! Thank you imdb.com haha.

Um, I freaked when I saw the pic of Aaron Paul, thinking perhaps you had truly seen him in person. I adore him. And my husband and I LOVE Breaking Bad, as do all of our friends.
We might have to duel for his affections, Tina. ;)

I need to get back into Breaking Bad. I watched the first two seasons and then sort of forgot about it.

Chipotle is always good- hot or cold, even a day old! Great paint colors- it’ll be fun to paint it yourself and see the results!

I kind of love Jesse Pinkman too. I would have been embarrassed to admit that before but I definitely find myself rooting for him. I am watching Season 3 on Netflix right now, I may have to buy season 4 when I am done!

Liz@EatSaveTravel January 16, 2012 at 11:58 am

You HAVE to go see the The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo! I watched it Saturday night while the guys were watching the game (I’m not a football fan so I downloaded it free off the web and hooked the computer up to the big screen tv) it was so much better seeing it all cozied up on the couch at home! It was an awesome movie!

Is Breaking Bad a good show? We have the first season on DVD (it was on sale for $5) but have yet to watch it.

I’m so upset / so glad chipotle isn’t right down the street from me anymore since I moved. But I definitely crave it ever once in a while!
