its been a while since ive had the time or energy to actually make a meal for myself, not to mention food or clean dishes, but i made myself dinner tonight and it was very nice if i do say so myself. i pan fried some salmon with a lime marinade and cooked a handful of pasta. i like cooking, i really do. i think once im in my new apartment i'll be able to do a lot more of it with the separate kitchen and all. im looking forward to it. my only problem though is that its quite hard to buy food in small enough quantities that you can only cook for one person. i know im going to be eating salmon for at least two more meals. i like having other people to cook for too. so i'll tell you now, i have a mexican feast planned for sometime this week whenever my avocados and mangos are ripe. so if anyone wants to come over for dinner, just let me know what night is good for you...
this weekend wasnt a complete bust i dont think. friday after class i came home, made some dinner and just hung out, watching movies, nothing exciting. saturday i went home and did laundry, got my sex in the city fix, studied, then went to babysit. studied some more after the kids went to bed, nothing too exciting. i think they pay me more when i come at night and they get to spend some time together. came home, got to talk to jared for a little, we really should sit down and actually pick a day to hang out dude. on sunday mom called me at 9 to tell me that she didnt want to come to the art museum with me, but dad would bring me my laundry after minyan. so i got up, got dressed, went downstairs and got my laundry, brought it upstairs, and instead of going to the museum i promptly laid down and went back to sleep for another two hours. so i set off for the museum later than i had planned so i did have to deal with the crowd, but i was only going really to skim the modern wing so i could pick a piece to write my art history paper on. i picked a duchamp ready-made, i have such a distaste for the ready-mades i figure it wont be too hard to write five pages on it. it was beautiful out on sunday, i really enjoyed my walk to the museum. on my way home i was planning on stopping at the supermarket, but when i got there there were a bunch of people standing out in the parking lot, so i asked (a cute guy who was standing by himself) what was going on, the fire alarm was going off. although i could have stayed (and flirted) i decided to just wander around to find something for lunch, ended up with a smoothie and wrap from amazon. i walk past amazon all the time and never go in, it wasnt bad. cleaned a little, and got ready for my evening out. went to see star wars, which i very much enjoyed, then out for a bite to eat. it was quite nice. came home a little thoughtful, so instead of overthinking and pissing myself off, started working on my nice media kit. today i didnt do anything productive besides go to the supermarket and make myself dinner. i'll probably study some more in a bit, maybe do a little more of my media kit for wednesday, havent decided. for now i think im just going to satisfy my sweet tooth and chill out. hope everyone had a nice memorial day.
