FUDZ
I reached a milestone in my cooking career today. I threw a bunch of stuff in a pot without using a recipe, and it came out good. I had a bunch of carrots that I needed to use up, and also half a bell pepper, so I threw them in a saucepan with some tomato sauce and two cans of garbanzo beans, let it all cook together, and then threw in a whole ( Read more... ) -

So, I feel the need to share with all of you the hilarity that is Skullcrusher Mountain. Enjoy. -

So, I was just reminded of something I had totally forgotten about: ages ago, Mike suggested I make a project of visiting every independent bookstore in New York City, and write a blog about it. I think maybe I should do that. I mean, I've been wanting to write more, and not just journal-style. I've been contemplating starting up a blog to do ( Read more... ) -

Mike: ...shut up. -
Also, on the topic of bathing suits:
I sometimes feel self-conscious in a bikini. Like, I am exposing my chubby bits for other people to see: THE HORROR. At some point, I became Too Fat to Wear a Bikini. Yes, I know I'm not actually fat, but I grew up in a culture that says that if (you're a girl and) your ribs aren't showing, you're too fat. I think my ribs stopped showing when I ( Read more... ) -
ARGELFRASTER.
So...I thought I had found a buyer for my hair. There was much aggravation involved in working it out - for one thing, they refused to use PayPal, and I was leery of handing out my address to a complete stranger I'd never met (having already gotten some...unusual...responses to my ad), so I had to have them send a check to me care of someone else ( Read more... ) -
Clothes!
Another bonus of grad school over teaching: I don't have to worry nearly as much about the fact that none of my professional clothing fits! Woo! Although it does still make me kind of sad. I liked some of that clothing, man ( Read more... ) -
Mulberries
The mulberries around here are apparently ripe. Every so often, you'll be walking along and find the ground is covered in dark purple blotches, where the fruit fell to the ground and people stepped on it. Sometimes there are birds pecking at them. Occasionally I think about plucking the fruit off the trees and eating them myself, but I never
