Oooh, Testy!

I really detest slow drivers on one lane streets (you know the kind with double lines and oncoming traffic in the other lane). GOD They’re so annoying!! Especially at night when it’s snowing, because you really just can’t pass anyone. Driving home tonight I had to actively restrain myself from laying on the horn and ramming into the back of some guy’s 1982 sky blue chevrolet. Is it REALLY necessary to go 35 in a 55?!?! Seriously. The roads are not that bad.

Minnie Mae managed to manipulate her leash around the farthest tree from the house when I put her on her run this evening. You know that means: tramping through the wind & ice storm to untangle her from said bush because she couldn’t figure out how to do it herself. GAHIGAHGISDHS. Obviously not in a great mood and super tired and just…done.

P.S. One good thing is that I got new glasses the other day and they really make me look like I do in the above “profering chocolates” photo! I love having glasses again–(I sat on the last pair after a rough night at work)–my eyes can breathe! I should re-do the logo and insert the real me sporting my new glasses! Ha!

Time Warp

The Forbidden. Reading other peoples’ secret writings holds such allure. I know it’s wrong: the ultimate invasion of privacy (after identity theft…). But aren’t you all just dying to know what other people write about you in their diaries? I’ve decided to randomly share some entries from my diary with you–to break the boundries between us if you will. Feel free to reciprocate!

Diary Entry
December 27, 1998
Santa Monica, CA

“So here I am in California having a simply marvelous time! Arrived yesterday afternoon and have been living like a princess ever since…”

Weight Training With Cacao

I tried a dessert called “death by Chocolate,” but it only made me stronger.

A nice box of chocolates can provide your total daily intake of calories in one place. Now, isn’t that handy?

Happy New Year

Or as they say in Italy:

Felice Anno Nuovo!
(pron. feh-lee-cheh ahn-noh noo-oh-vo!

New year, new motifa. In order to truly appreciate this lovely photo of me with the chocolates, you need to check out the splash page.

Home For The Holidays

camper.jpg I made it back in one piece. Driving cross country by yourself really isn’t that difficult. There are only four roads to take, so getting lost isn’t a problem–even for me! The most challenging thing is finding the will to go on, but when you have a deadline (like interviews and CHRISTMAS), even that’s not hard. It was definitely a lot different than the trip there, but a successful one nonetheless. I regret to inform you that I left my camera in the trunk(ish) somewhere and so have no photo documentation for you this time around. (Tragic!) I tried to paint the pictures with words instead…
