I'm · sick · but · I'm · pretty, · baby

I don't know why I worry, they have seen and heard quite a few things in their time.

Now I have work to do, and tonight I am painting my kitchen "Dusted Carrot".  I am holding myself back from getting these ALF curtains I saw on Ebay.....they would match but I just can't go that far I think I am too old.

Cammy wants to wear three different costumes for the three days; Bubbles from Powerpuff Girls, Sailor Moon, and "i'm still deciding".

Oy.

I came across it this morning and I like it quite a bit. (Turns out he also lives in Northampton - have I met him and maybe forgot because I have the memory of a goldfish? Uh, now that I think about it I think maybe I did. Sorry dude, I am so bad at things like this.)

I was just having a conversation about link surfing through webcomics and how even though I end up reading so many horrible ones along the way, it is ultimately worth it. It is how I found John Campbell, Beaver and Steve (way back in the day), and now this!

Also, thanks for coming over and hanging out last night you guys who came over and hung out last night. I hope you all had a good time and I hope I didn't get too loud and rambly like I tend to do. Kisses!

Yesterday I went to Savers and got caught in that Savers time warp where you think you've only been in there a little while but it's really been two hours. I had a hard time finding stuff, but I did snag this 70's-pottery-teacher-esque vest thing that is actually really cute. Trust me.

I was just about to leave when I found a friggin' cloak for six dollars! It is black veleveteen lined with red satin and now I can feel dark and mysterious whenever I want to.*

*or lend it to the middle school drama club....that too.

Boo!

Fry and chop the bacon or do what I did and realize you have bacon bits and dump a whole bunch of those in. Mix everything but the sour cream in the crockpot. You really want to cook this for as long as possible, to get the pork nice and tender. That's why I keep my cabbage and potatoes in such large chunks, so that they don't turn to mush in the meantime. It will look really dry at first, but it makes a nice sauce when everything releases all it's juice. The flour is a thickening agent to make it nice and stewey. Right before serving, adjust the salt - it will probably need a bit, since the potatoes will absorb everything you put in there in the beginning - and stir in the sour cream.

Serve with rye bread and enjoy! It is also fantastic the next day I am eating some right now. :)

There is probably a puddle down in the scary gross blair witch basement, because it ran down the hole that the dryer hose feeds into. It doesn't matter down there though, it is so disgusting that the 'floor' is a mixture of dirt and moldy old carpet. It's so weird down there and someone hung himself down there so I don't go down there.

Anyway I am done for the night. I just got out of the shower and I'm in my comfy pajama pants with the snowmen all over them and I smell good. I bought myself some body butter yesterday that smells like brown sugar and fig. I keep sniffing my arm like a crazy person.

PS The goulash was delicious and if any of you want the recipe, I would be happy to post it!

Our cars are completely iced to the ground. Since the sun is out, I am hoping that we'll be able to push them in an hour or so. I hate February but  you can't fight city hall, especially when Mother Nature's the mayor. Or something.

Happy Valentimes Day, friends. I hope at least one person is nice to each of you today.

Listen: The Bird & The Bee "Please Clap Your Hands" I know that I have previously recommended The Bird and The Bee, but this is their new EP and I can't decide which I love more - "Polite Dance Song" or their cover of "How Deep Is Your Love". Yes that's right. The Bee Gee's song.

Drink: Southern Tier Brewing Company beers, especially their Raspberry Porter, which is rich but not heavy, and not very sweet. Kaliis just introduced me to them last week, and I am smitten.

Sadly, I have not had time to read lately. Can you guys recommend a book to me?

Kisses!

Some of the objects are actually candles, as you can see here -

Then for today's Super Tuesday bake sale at Cammy's school, I made bipartisan sugar cookies. They taste like change.

EDIT: Thanks for the nice comment/compliments you guys! :D

Let's not drop the ball tomorrow, if you're voting in a Super Tuesday primary. The thought of Hillary getting the Democratic nomination makes my stomach clench up. She is a Republican in blue clothing - just because she talks to black people who aren't Condi Rice does not mean she won't continue on the course that Bush has set.

Also let's face it; Ron Paul is not going to be president. Take that primary vote and please put it to good use. As someone who voted for Ralph Nader, I implore you. I get it, it's a revolution. But this is not fucking Haiti. You can not take a country this size and make sweeping changes your first week in office and turn the whole thing upside down so that we live in a Truly Free country with a shiny shiny fence to keep out all those dirty Messicans. I don't like the WTO, or the RFID chip, or taxes either but I insist on being practical.
