I feel like something out of Picasso's blue period...although I think bluehaired girls Have More Fun. I'll live it up as long as I have it...why not?

If I shoot another set it may just have to involve very juicy peaches...

Idjiit says that I will have proofs by tomorrow morning. Naughty man...now how am I supposed to sleep?! Evil. Pure, yummy evil.

My mummy shows up at lunchtime tomorrow with my two youngest siblings in tow. I'm the oldest of 7 kids. The youngest is 11. He's a heartbreaker...big blue eyes...a real flirt...oh wait, those two things just run in the family... *giggle* I probably flirt too much. Oh well.

I'm reading a fantastic book, My Last Chance To Be A Boy: Theodore Roosevelt's South American Expedition of 1913-1914 One of the best historical monographs that I've read in a long, long time and I read lots of'em... It is about T.R.'s ill-fated trip through Brazil that basically killed him. T.R., regardless of how you feel about his politics, was an amazing man. Just his ability to remember sheer masses of info and his raw physical strength. Unbelievable. There was once when he was shot in a failed assassination attempt and he refused to go to the hospital until after he had spoken at the event that he was supposed to go to...for 1.5 hours... That's intense. Most people don't know that he was blind in his left eye as well. From a boxing accident while he was in the White House. To public didn't know until much later and most people still don't know.

Where are those people now? I'd love to feel all impassioned about someone in a leadership position...those people who inspire wild loyalty.

At the same time, I'm always skeptical of things or people that That Many people can agree on. If that many people liked it then it must be watered down, right? *oh, upppsss...did I just say that?*

On other thoughts:

luna and I have a "date" to see Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy next week (I'm smitten with him, what can I say? I have a crush...) I'm so sure that I'm not the only one, too...

I seem to be unable to get enough food recently. Odd. I never had much of an appetite before...hardly any...now, I'm hungry like every 4 hours. My roomie, the new SG convert eviltwin2, says that this is normal (even healthy) and that I should just go with it...but damn, it is using up so much of my time! Time that I waste thinking, "Damn, I'm hungry" and time spent making food...eating food...and time spent cleaning up... Then I'm hungry again. It would suck if I didn't love food so much. I love cooking for other people...I just hate doing it for myself.

Alison shows up next Tuesday!

I leave for Glasgow next Thursday!

All kinds of excitement with the folks this weekend. I'm interviewing them both (seperately) at StoryCorps on Saturday and then we're going to din-din at The Harrison where my friend B is the chef. He's amazing. I love that place. Sooooooo yummy.

Kind of yummy like Vixen who went pink today! Yea for her!

Also, go say howdy to eviltwin2 who is my roomie, a friggin' genius when it comes to anything gym related, computer oriented or dealing with math (not the seventh grade kind that we can all do...that fancy stuff about determining...ummm...stuff...the Universe...the ultimate answer to everything...that kind o'math.) He's smart, handsome and available. Go get him. *wink* He also makes the world's best Jell-O shots

I've been on an AC/DC kick recently. And The Spice Girls. Strange.

I want to see the ENRON documentary that is out. Anyone interested in going?
