i'm getting excited about cooking these days.
could be a domestic spell setting in.
i should be careful. i visited a friend just two months ago who lives in baltimore. corey. all the tell-tale signs of foodiness were there; spice grinder, several large, expensive pans, a fridge full of yummy, homemade things and a french press. she sent me home with three kinds of handmade mustard. she had an entire shelf of french cookbooks.
now she's getting married.
whoa.
she's not the only marriage-monger i know, either. there are three more in the near future. i'm helping someone else to hand dye velvet for her dress. this is the bane of the twenty-somethings. fuck vacations, you've got weddings to attend! blech.
i hope this isn't some long, downward spiral. you start getting excited about cooking, and staying in a lot. then, next thing you know, you're coordinating your bathroom towels and keeping you tax stuff in those ugly document boxes. and waxing. and shopping for some rock of a ring since diamonds are a girl's...etc.
is it hypocritical to admit that erik is the awesomest dude? and that, shit, it'd be a sweet thing, sitting in some trailer with him, heating pad on my aching back, drinking tea and sewing, when i'm 80? his beard would be all white and fucking rad.
i think marriage haste has alot to do with wanting to look good in pictures. you want to be all young and unwrinkled. smooth of skin. thin and svelte.
bla,bla,bla.
