I fucking love the grocery store.  I go there too often.  I think I'm addicted to looking at food (and eating it, but mostly looking at it).  In fantasy novels when they describe the giginormous feasts, I'll read through those paragraphs over and over again and try to figure out if I could ever make any of it.  I also love reading diet books ( Read more... )

Last week, Blaz Bush, Tom Huston Orr and I spent 7 days in Lincoln, NE or Lincoln, NA?  I think I was right the first time, but I don't know.  In any case, I wouldn't plan a trip to the Nebraskan capital, BUT as a recruiting place that we had to visit, it was not bad.  In fact, it was much better than last year.  I think I can attribute that mostly ( Read more... )

I house-sat for Rena for a week.  Her house is soooo nice, and I totally took advantage of her pool and jacuzzi and food in the fridge, among other things *wink*.  I was really afraid of fucking something up though, and without a doubt, I sure did.  Not too bad though.  I closed a door too hard and a stained glass painting of a flower fell, but ( Read more... )

Today is my friend Dustin's birthday.

Someone wise once told me, it's not goodbye, it's until next time.  I've had to refer to that wisdom really often these past few weeks, and Friday won't be any easier.

I hung out with a new friend tonight, or rather, an old friend made new?  I don't know, but it was fun.

I bought some tapioca from Wal-Mart- I haven't had that in forever; I wonder how ( Read more... )

My job really has some niiiiiiiiiiiiice perks.  The people who walk into the office!  ooowee baby!  I can't wait to tell Blaz about this one hehe.

Some cat on the phone was talking to me and said, "And what's your name again?  Dr. Amy... what?"  I'm Awesome.

How is the world treating you?
You haven't changed a bit
Lovely as ever, I must admit
