1) Yes, I'm still alive. And wow, it's been almost a year since my last post. Since then I've obviously graduated from college. I think the reason I haven't bothered to say anything here, though, is that there isn't really much to stay. I'm living with my mom in California. I'm working at the Castle.

Last night I decided at about 9:30 that I wanted to make chocolates for the fiesta we were having in Spanish class today. (I'd signed up to bring galletas, but had forgotten to go to the store, and really, chocolates are better, anyway.

I was going to attempt to make falafel for dinner next Tuesday, but I'm not sure about falafel without tahini sauce... I'll bet Trader Joe's would have it. Or even Whole Foods. Maybe I can try one of those tomorrow, or something.

I know that the place was closing, and the haircutter woman wanted to go home, but I don't really think that excuses the fact that on one side my hair is about an inch longer than on the other.
