Nathan dressed up as “Boogy Bot 2000″ last night. Yeaaaah.. I think I kind of looked like the half-assed assistant who put him together.

Also, check out the archives. I made them a bit more interesting by making them show up in these lovely grids. Now all of the posts for a given month and year are visible at once, no more endlessly clicking between pages. Yay!

Oh, and these are some awesome brownies I picked up in the market on Friday. They have a green icing layer on top and a pink layer between the green icing and the brownie. In short: THEY’RE JUST LIKE REAL FROGS.

so i had work till close last night, which was a pretty good time… but what made it better was

DAVID AND PAT.

they came by (weren’t working) to bring us all thanksgiving dinner!

it was so nice and amazing and awesome of them. kind of like when generous and helpful people provide thanksgiving dinner to the homeless people of the streets.

not that me nadja allie and zak are homeless or anything but yah. it was just so… heartwarming having them walk in with these plates of food, one for each of us + A PIE and BREAD ROLLS

so yah that lightened the mood even more. and then they came to drive through and threw pennies inside because i was doing the floors and sweeping/cleaning under all the counters and behind fridges and stuff and i had been collecting money found on the ground(which i generously put in the tip jars at the end of the night, i hope zak thinks about that next time he tries to trap me behind a fridge).

 so yah! good times.

i like work. i’d have been pretty lonely this weekend had i not been there (and i acutally went in early too just to not be alone)

my family is back now though! yey? aha

hope you guys had a good weekend.

I’m so addicted to theatre popcorn … I feel like I should be going to weekly meetings about my addiction. Today I briefly — very briefly — considered the notion of buying only popcorn from a movie theatre. You’ll know the addiction is bad when I actually do that, but until then consider it under control. Anywho, my sister went to go see that movie with the Rock in it a night or two ago and came back with a bag of the popcorn and oh how I’ve been feasting on it. But now the bag is running out, so I’m taking smaller handfuls and savouring the hit. Soon it will be gone and I will go into withdrawal …

EVERYONE
OH
MY
GOD.
today, i got home from school, and almost immediately after walking into the kitchen my mind was set on making a sandwhich. it was crazy.
so! that is exactly what i did. i started out with some regular sandwhich things, and MY GOD. i dont know what happened to me during the time i was making it, but i went crazy! the stuff i put in it! all good stuff but ahh! something just took over me and i ended up making this crazy sandwhich! i sat down and took a bite out of it.
MY FRIENDS, IF YOU’VE EVER WONDERED WHAT TRUE HAPPINESS IS, YOU WOULD HAVE WANTED THAT SANDWHICH.
that sandwhich i made was the most blissful, heavenly, delicious, undescribably tasty thing i’ve ever ever EVER had.
oh man. i just cant get over how awesomely good it was. it was like taking a bite out of heaven.
it pains me to say that i will never experience such euphoria again, since i dont remember how i made it or what i put in it. as i was eating it i didnt even think about looking or trying to see what i made it of. in those precious moments of eating, all time stood still. i didnt care about the past, the future.. all i cared about was then. and eating that sandwhich.
if you’ve read brave new world, then imagine my sandwhich = soma X bliss X1000.
it was like.. a somwhich.
that sandwhich made everything i’ve ever done in my life irrelevant (except for making it.. GREATEST ACCOMPLISHMENT.EVER.).. it was so good i could cry. *sigh*
in a way it makes me feel sorry for you all.. that you will never experience such an overwhelmingly high point of joy. but then it was my sandwhich.
it was so good it should have been forbidden. nothing so delicious is pure. NOTHING.
but now its time for me to move on, as hard as it is, and let go of that priyariffic sandwhich which i greedily devoured…
SO! IN OTHER NEWS…

I just had a slice of tomatoe … or is it tomato. Dammit.
ANYWAY, IT TASTED ENTIRELY like watermellon.

Isn’t that the most random thing ever? My tomato tasted like watermellon.
It wasn’t even a mild taste, it was full out “This tastes like watermellon” kind of taste.

I don’t know if I should be afraid or open towards the water-tomato.
*I have no watermellon in my house
*It was a normal red tomato (not one of the creepy acid-free yellow ones)

Speaking of the yellow tomato! I was at my grandparents house on thanksgiving and my grandma asked me if I would go get a tomato from the garden in the back… or side… I don’t know where it is anymore… they have a confusing house**. Anyway I went to the garden place and all I saw was yellow tomatos. There were many of them… everywhere… I had not been exposed to yellow tomatoes before so I shielded my eyes and made a cross with my fingers… apparently they are acid free or something.
**The “front” of their house is a porch or something facing… NO-WHERE!!!!
The “back of their house faces the road and has a deck… and a driveway.
It’s odd.

I am stealing Lise’s art to make something.
Oho, that didn’t come out right.
I am bored and wanted to do something in illustrator and then while looking around in my folder of images (convieniently named “random”) I came across a picture Lise made a while back with toast being skewered by a jar of jam. ittle over half an hour now.
XD
“Hah!” Says I.
“I am getting awfully hot” says it.
“Allow me to open you” Says I
“Do me in Illustrator” Says it.
“Aye, I’ll do you” Says I.
“YES! YES!” Says it.
And so I’ve been doing it for about half an hour now.
