I didn't catch a cold, a cold caught me.
Howdy!
It has been a while since I've posted anything so this will just be a catch-up post before we go to bed.
Letsssseeee...
I was sick with a cold a couple of weeks ago where I went into a cocoon and lost my voice. I finally found it and recovered nicely only to catch a similar cold this week. How many damn vitamins do I need to take to stay well?
Last week I spent a couple of days with new family and learned how to make a couple of new dishes. I'm trying that whole cooking at home from scratch thing, because it's better for us in a few ways. Plus, T8 loves it when I cook. I think he digs the wife-thing, y'know? I'm going to try out a few dishes this weekend on some of you, so get ready!
I just bought a book called, "You Are What You Eat" by Dr. Gillian McKeith and I'm re-learning how to eat because I apparently haven't been doing it correctly. I'm slowly teetering from just vegetarianism into the world of macrobiotic dieting and this is a good starter manual for me. Have any of you out there in LJ-land read this yet? I think we could all use some more fresh raw veggies in our daily meals. I'm trying to cut down on my sugar intake, which is kind of hard for me. I'm learning about the evils of refined sugar and non-sea salt.
I have recently purchased an assload of fabric, satin, muppet fur, etc... for Burning Man costume projects and bike transformations. Hancock Fabrics is going out of biz and I raided the location over on Old Auburn blvd a couple of times in the past month and a half. I don't know how to sew, but my step mom is loaning me her nearly new sewing machine after she gets back from her cruise and I'm determined to learn. I would like to take that famous Corset Making Class from gypsyritsa and just need to know when it is happening. If anyone out there wishes to help with costumes, I'd gladly gladly appreciate it and would compensate for the time and such! I'm bursting with BM ideas and am so excited about the burn this year. So excited.
I need a damn haircut. I'm rockin' a shag right now but not by choice. My stylist is in Vegas for the week and T8 keeps asking me if I'm growing it out again. :)
Zombie film alert: We saw 28 Weeks Later this past weekend. I didn't like it as much as the first one, but it had a couple of interesting moments. T8 liked it, but then again, he likes all the zombie movies...
I'm afraid of zombies. They scare the shit out of me.
We got a letter from Kier today. He is dying for letters and visitation. I keep trying to get out there and even though I'm afraid to go visit, I'm trying to do it. We've recently sent him 5 packages with letters and pictures and things and they've only let 2 go through. (That really sucks.) If anyone is interested in going with me to visit him during the day (Jeff, Steve, etc..) please let me know and we'll coordinate a time together. I just don't think I can do it alone. I got a call from his mom last week and she thanked whomever sent him the subscription to Blender Magazine. No one knows who sent it...
I need to go to sleep, check y'all later.
