A little hand-carved owlie that my mom sent me for my birthday. In typical Mom-fashion, she said "this was hand-carved by the Cherokee Indian tribe (well, probably not the entire tribe)." Hee!

Don't judge me. I've been doing 90 minutes of 105-degree yoga practically every day in the last 2 weeks (11 classes in 13 days) and all I have been craving is carbs and salt-- thus invented: MAC & CHEEZZA. Don't worry, it's all vegetarian and organic. ;)

Yesterday Brian said my eyes looked like cinammon. He tried to take a photo but I was too busy trying to suck in clean air after the gentleman with the worst breath in the entire world talked to me for 20 minutes. OY.

This was an .... interesting .... attempt at a carbonara-type sauce, sans the meat, with cauliflower, zucchini, and sweet potatoes. It was OK, but I needed 1 less flavour going on in there.

This morning my bike ride was rained out, so before going to my salary-slashed, hours-multiplied, benefits-deleted asshat of a job, I decided to watch The Doctor Who special I've been saving for a special occasion, as David Tennant nearly always makes me feel warm & fuzzy inside. Too bad the entire hour was garbled up into pixelated crap.
To add insult to injury, I was told to come in at noon and then called at 10am to rush down to help avert a crisis-- I grabbed a sweater on my mad dash out that happened to still be damp, despite its having been hanging up for 3 days, thanks humidity, so now I am not only cold but also wet. I also didn't get any lunch, and have had more than one person today to tell me to quit my bitching.
Eff you Wednesday.

I went to the Jewish Contemporary Museum today to see the Chagall exhibit, which was cool, but I was mostly entranced with this Jews on Vinyl exhibit. They had a "living room" set up with headphones. I listened to music for about an hour. It was so great!
