I wish the weather permitted denim and corduroy.

I really hate that sometimes you just can't explain yourself- for whatever the reason. Either you aren't brave enough or the moment just doesn't seem to present itself. When it seems that a situation arises that makes you look bad the only thing you want to do is explain so that the other parties involved don't have reason to compromise their opinion of you. But even so- there are worse things in life and I'm ok with being left up to scrutiny.

The semester is over and done with for me as of Tuesday Dec. 11, 2007. I'm really looking forward to the break but at the same time I wish that I could skip it. Namely, because of my workout schedule. I'm up to two-a-days now! And my collarbone is becoming visible. I didn't even know I had one of those things for I have never actually been able to see it.

The winter time always reminds my of music and recipes. I always start listening to a lot of Queen around the holidays. It reminds me of the Christmas a few years ago when my parents gave me some Queen CD's and I spent part of Christmas day learning all the words to Killer Queen and Bicycle Race. I also start listening to a lot of old Eisley (especially the winter song) and Radiohead's first album, Pablo Honey. I think that is my favorite Radiohead album. 1) Because I just plain love it and 2)when they made this record it was before they had time to buy into some of their hype- you know, before they became the quintessential go-to cool college kid fave band... etc etc. Well... yeah, something like that. I've been getting all of my recipes together and I can't wait to take over the kitchen at my house. Plus I'm looking into some lovely little craft and recipe ideas in my Amy Sedaris hospitality book, God love her. Lots of yummy holiday food stuffs are waiting to be prepared by yours truly. Joy!

Looking forward to pajama pants, blankets, gal pals, family, baked goods, good books, good movies, Jasmine, my room, my bed, and sleep.
