I want to die.

So, I'm trying to get a headstart on the nearly 1000 cookies, brownies, mini cheesecakes, tarts, etc I have to make for Sunday morning and my booth at the Heights festival in Houston.

Listening to "Sharp Dart" by The Streets really does help.

So, I'm mixing dough, as I do, and I'm putting in a tsp of baking powder into some cookie dough and I...

Damnit.

Ok, lets see if we can do this again.

The bad and the ugly

1) My dad couldnt get the cheap UT tickets I was hoping for, so it looks like I wont be getting into a game this season. Instead, my dad will be coming up here on the 8th so we can go to the Alamo Drafthouse...

This journal entry is dedicated to DaGhost who had his first introduction to me tonight when I ran (no, really. RAN) up to him walking down the street because I saw him in an SG shirt:

Me: Are you on SG?

Me: Who are you
Him: DaGhost
Me:Bluevalentine (I extend my hand)

Today's Story: Is BlueValentine gonna have to make a bitch cry?

So, I come home from my friend's wedding reception. After talking to nofiradio for awhile, I crawl into bed.

About 3:30, I wake up to knocking on my front door. I figure my roommate lost his key or something.

And naturally, my holes closed up.

And after about 18 months of saying "I want to wear whatever earings I want, damnit!" I finally got my ears repierced.

I'm 26 years old.

Now do you see where my embarassment is from?

I have...

So, here are the highlights of my trip:

1) I have never met two more stubborn people than my friend in boston and her boyfriend. It was good seeing my friend again but jeez louise. It got to the point where I turned to her and said "um...I'm going to go take a walk for awhile. I'm not sure where I'm headed yet but I'll...
