So yesterday I did the smart thing and bought a munchie for game night that was relatively healthy- sweet potato chips. This is in comparison to the "fully loaded chili cheese" Ruffles I passed as I walked down the aisle.
Add that entire bag of chips to the salad I had for dinner (while playing Carcassonne) with coutons, and I was doing a lot of crunching. And knowing me I was probably really into the whole chewing thing and doing it really voraciously, possibly harder than I needed to (mj can do that), and now my jaws/teeth are actually still tired.
So tonight's dinner had to satisfy the requirement that I not wash any dishes AND not have anything crunchy. Spaghetti it is!
I was high all last night. This isn't like earth-shattering news, it was just unusual for me. Typically I sober up some time between the first and second smoke breaks, but I didn't this time. And we had THIRD smoke break before the night ended. I usually don't bother smoking before going home, since I'm just going to bed anyway, but the temptation was too strong, and I ended up taking some hits anyway. Remember what we discovered at Starbucks, folks. How do I turn down free? I DON'T.
In other news, I often think about how much richer my life would be if I got more into the culinary arts as a pastime. I should specify. I want to be one of those people who makes those awesome cakes you see. They don't have to be super pretty, but I love those video game cakes you see, interestingly swirled batters, and flavor combinations I just hadn't considered. That sort of thing. So when I saw
this, I was like "that is awesome," but when I read further, and saw that she gave a rundown of how to make your rainbow cakes distribute color evenly for a rainbow effect, I knew I had to do that myself one day.
(I will admit that one of my motives for being so culinarily proficient is that I want to be the kind of mom that bangs out awesome shit for their kids. Never mind how I currently feel about children rearing, there's still part of me that wants to have a world where I bang out magical treats to my children's delight.)
Also, I saw Nancy and E.Po's name on the Annual Fund donor list. I guess it's time for me to donate? Looks like I'm not getting to Tokyo anytime soon, as it's fucking radioactive.
(I donated to the Red cross yesterday for the relief effort. The option was available on Wells Fargo ATMs. How convenient.)
