Guess what I brought for lunch

a tub of margarine! I fell victim to one of the classic blunders again - keeping leftovers in old margarine tubs. Grabbed the wrong tub this morning.

taro…

is really filling stuff. I’ve never had it before, until yesterday when James and I decided to get chinese for dinner. There’s a veggie restaurant near my house and we ordered taro rolls, among other things. They really should advertise “Don’t order this unless there are AT LEAST five of you, and [...]

still at home

I didn’t ride my bike anywhere this morning. I woke up at 7, saw that it was overcast, thought, “Do I really want to ride my bike 70 clicks today, possibly in the rain?”, answered myself in the negative, turned over, and went back to sleep.

It's the freakin' weekend!

Went to the farmer’s market and the craft fair and the Apple Store. James is pmsing because someone jacked the badges from his car. I have 45 cents left till I get paid next Wednesday. Someone hide my credit card or else I’ll spend money I don’t have!
Um, Corey’s birthday tonight and [...]

Pants!

Here’s some baby jeans I knit for my little neice Natalie (almost 5 months old). It looks like one leg is longer than the other, but that’s just camera trickery.

music!

Or more specifically, my favourite music store. aka Krazy Bob’s Music Emporium. The guy’s an insane geek who sells mostly vinyl, wears rainbow tye-dyed shirts, and makes fun of everyone who comes in. I asked about Dance Mix ‘92 and he didn’t have it, so I bought two Rufus Wainwright albums instead. [...]

domestic disturbance at the duck pond

James and I ate raw green beans for dinner last night and then went to Jericho Beach around sunset. We sat on a log knitting (well, I was knitting…) until it got too chilly for me and my tank top. Funny since it had been so hot when I got home from work, [...]

what a great day

Sunny and warm.
I washed all my bedding and just brought the last load in from the line. I swept the deck and watered my plants and scrubbed the mildew off the plastic deck table. I cleaned the kitchen and put all my clothes away. I’m going to make my bed in a [...]

Jamesism

James and I dropped Corey off and then went to drive me home. “oooooh” I said because my tummy was cramping.
“Aww you’re like a frog without moistening,” he said and patted my knee.
“What!?”
“or like a bubble kitten.”
“What the hell’s a bubble kitten!?”
“I don’t know, it’s like two cute things put together.”

oh hey

I forgot to mention this yesterday. When I was walking from the office to the parking lot yesterday to get my bike and go home, I think I got assaulted by a woman with the WORST mullet I have ever seen.
I saw the mullet approaching… the bangs were like a bowlcut, but it was [...]
