to do:

unfortunately, felix "fox" harris' house isn't still here; but i really want to see the installation of his pieces at the art museum of southeast texas.

i can't believe i've been living back home for over two months. i've only accomplished a fraction of what i promised myself i would.

wurstfest 09:

i wish i could tell y'all how many different versions of the chicken dance i have heard over the past 48 hours.

this was my halloween costume. and yes, that is beer i'm drinking through the straw.

my mother has used the word "hootenany," both in text and in speech, approximately 800 times over the past week.

nomnomnom:

i just made myself a red onion, garlic, sun-dried tomato, spinach, artichoke heart, pine nut, and goat cheese omelet for dinner. delicious with a glass of cabernet sauvignon. YUM.

oh no:

i want this backpack! why is shipping $14.99??

i cannot do ebay. i always end up placing risky bids and accidentally purchasing things that i don't really intend to. please make me stop looking at navajo purses and rugs.

october in texas:

yesterday i shivered. today i sunbathe in the backyard.

mom is fifty:

i have heretofore greatly underestimated my parents' ability to party. i love my family.

i am wearing the most embarrassing outfit right now. i really hope that no one stops by for a surprise visit.

the worthwhile existence:

EAT...
SLEEP...
HUNT.
