I have no time to waste, Mr. Brown!

Today: Baking cupcakes and refusing to wear pants! (The kitchen AC unit is d-e-a-d dead.) Looking for a recipe for peanut butter frosting with ingredients that I have on hand. (My favorite game to play.)

One of my customers brought me an Appalachian Trail hikers' magazine. She's giving me big dreams for 2012.

I may have concocted an herbal tea capable of conquering my insomnia. I drank some last night and apparently slept through a gigantic thunder storm. Marvin wasn't so lucky. he woke up around three and ran around the block searching for one of our cats who was outside. Such devotion.

I've had two songs stuck in my head all day:

It's a good life, isn't it?

If you're easily grossed out, don't read this Birthday week post!

I'm twenty-six!
Marvin took me record shopping for my bee-day and we sat by the river a bunch and admired the lights on the water and it was a happy day and night. It was also the day that I started my raw foods diet. For the first forty-eight hours of raw fooding, I felt unbelievably energetic and very alert. Then, out of nowhere, I started puking and pooping like I'd never puked and pooped before. At first I blamed the raw foods, but I eventually came to the conclusion that I've developed a terrible allergy.........to GARBANZO BEANS! The last time I ate hummus and the last time I ate chickpea curry I felt horrible and on the day of violent stomach malfunction, I had eaten tons of raw chickpeas on my salad. Mystery solved. My new plan of dining is this: no meats, no chickpeas, very little dairy/white flour/sugar. I threw up too many fresh fruits and vegetables Tuesday night to want to go completely raw again any time soon. Yuck.
This week I've been a little obsessed with pioneers, Revelation, Henry Darger, Picnic at Hanging Rock, photographs of transparent balloons, and soup of all kinds.
I just learned that on St. Valentine's Day, Picnic at Hanging Rock is shown at Hanging Rock. That's one more thing to add to my bucket list.
