... but not late enough to stop by Whole Foods to get some bacon and eggs.
Call me Mrs. Flansburg
Confession: still went to L.A. yesterday despite the fact I had tix to the sold out show in San Diego at the Belly Up Tavern. I'm that much a fan especially since John Flansburg wrote to me twice in high school (letters which have since been lost). Pure happiness to me is the middle of... Continue Reading →
They Might Be Giants and Sonic burgers
I was only half feeling better and was deciding whether to travel up to L.A. to see They Might Be Giants at a free show promoting their new kid's album at Amoeba records. But at the last minute I went especially since I wasn't driving. The traffic blew as predicted especially since it was a... Continue Reading →
Let’s get physical
So after a day of thinking it over during a haze of cold medicine, I've decided to hire a personal trainer. The exact length is for 10 weeks for $200. Sure, it's a lot of cash but during the course of that time, I will have access to a gym, meet the trainer for 30... Continue Reading →
How I feel — South Park style
This is how I feel at this very moment. I've been playing around this Web site all afternoon when I decided to home sick. I've been making South Park avatars of me... ...and my boyfriend. Thanks to Nerd Werd for the site.
Crappy, rainy day
It's enough that I wake up at 6 a.m. so I can get to work at 7:30 because one of the presses is down. (I'm spoiled since 10 a.m. is my usual time I get in. So this is actually hell to me.) But it's rainy and the allergy I thought I had was really... Continue Reading →
Watch out, Starbucks!
I haven't been on eBay in a few months and just a random search brought me to this item: a recipe book filled with Starbucks' favorites. It seems unauthorized by Starbucks and no book cover is shown and especially due to the fact that the starting bid is a mere $4 for an electronic copy... Continue Reading →
Hangover cure
. Didn't get home until almost 3 from the concert. The wait to cross back into the U.S. wasn't as bad as feared but I'm really suffering today. It was either the melon margarita, the cigarette smoke or loud music but it was probably. Darn it that my phone started ringing at 8. My judgement... Continue Reading →
Camarones Hawaii in Tijuana
. Via my roommate, I became a fan of Los Aterciopelados, a alternative band from Columbia. My roomate's CD just happened to be in my CD player when I turned it on one weekend and the pulsating sound from the album Gozo Ponderoso caught my attention. All the music is sung in Spanish so I'm... Continue Reading →
Rainy Fridays equal baking
I've been craving blonde brownies (or blondies) all week but didn't have the time because of work and exhaustion. It's finally Friday and the rain is setting in for the night. Nothing beats blondies and Tivo'd television tonight.Here's the recipe for a dozen brownies. The batter seems a bit thin when you spread it in... Continue Reading →
