This is our temporary birdie. :)

i am enamored with this ribbon

even the picture that came out awful made it look pretty. :)

this
makes me sad because people just don't *think* sometimes

check out the poll results, yes, anyone who hasn't seen this already.

i don't understand people. i mean, people are so ashamed of how we had seperate bathrooms and water fountains and schools for black people, but they are just fine with doing it all over again, to gay kids.

interesting:

we bought a box of lemon essence prunes

and the box says "dried plums"

i assume this is for aesthetic reasons. but how funny. :)

spent the morning on the phone with the DMV figuring out permit/license issues

"Pretty much all I do these days is wait for customer service. My call is important to them. They have told me this many times in a sincere recorded message. The can't wait to serve me! They will answer my call just as soon as they finish serving the entire population of mainland China."
- Dave Berry

today it is sunny

and kelly wrote to me about easter when she was littler and they would go to florida and go to sunrise service on the beach on easter morning

and it made me smile. :)

ally

i wanna go to saratoga with you

and have lunch at the 4 Seasons place

and buy paints and cards and pretty paper at suave faire

and walk in the park.

ryan and i always sort of wanted an apartment there, downtown. or in burlington, on church street. those are good places.

:)

i was having fun the other day updating my amazon wishlist

(when i think of a book i want, i add it so i won't forget) and my goodness, if i were a millionaire, i would have such a lot of music and such a lot of books

clutter on the computer desk:

my glass, with water in it getting warm
camera
hot pink plastic tape measurer
half.com check
personalized post-its with various phone numbers scrawled in black and blue

three smartie hearts, all orange (the kind i don't like)
black sharpie pen, fine point

we need more space. too much stuff resides on this desk. but it's sort of friendly.

Rainbow Lake by Wendy and Lisa

is a weird song.

but i think i like it. it's just weird, for some reason.

"life is not a garden, so stop being a ho!" - brooke's info

someone send me a really big birdcage. because i want to adopt a bird.

a lot.

"the river has more colors at sunset
than my sock drawer ever dreamed of" (ani)

album of the day:

Chicago - Night and Day

mmm.

milk and honey lotion makes me feel like

some kind of biblical or egyptian queen, or a goddess

"i want a love
won't break me down
won't brick me up
won't fence me in"

i just like the way he sings that.

(04:56:38) UncleJohnnyS: sarah, you should not be associated with the ghetto
(04:56:38) sarahmchinchilla : I'm sleeping right nzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....
(04:56:40) UncleJohnnyS: period
(04:57:02) UncleJohnnyS: if you are associated with the ghetto, there is something wrong and you need to fix it
(04:57:15) UncleJohnnyS: you should never be associated with the ghetto
(04:57:17) UncleJohnnyS: evert
(04:57:20) UncleJohnnyS: ever
(04:58:28) UncleJohnnyS: i mean it

hee hee. :)

you know

aside from my thinking sasha cohen (figure skater) is really cute

i just really like the way she moves.

it's like liquid.

books i got at the library today:

"Breaking the Faith" (The Pope, The People, and the Fate of Catholicism) - this is because of a discussion ryan and i were having on which way the catholic church will go when the current pope meets his inevitable demise and a new one comes along - and that's what this book is about)

"Make Love Not War" - which is a history book about the sexual revolution. just randomly, because it interested me.

i tried to get the new Junie B. Jones book (where she starts first grade) but it wasn't there. I also tried to get the newest Anthony Bourdain book, but it's not there yet either. Siiigh.

okay, i think that's out of my system now. sort of. more or less.

time for some more orange strawberry banana juice.

more dollies:



she's got the scholarly, excessively sexy thing going on. ;)

i lock the door
unlock my head and
dream of butterflies instead
(K's Choice, Butterflies Instead)

i want more jolly rancher gummies. why don't they come in a bigger bag?

i got free jelly bellys in the mail. because you see, jellybelly.com has a survey that's open sometimes and if you get into it and take it, they send you free samples.

mmm. :)

so i made a couple of those little doll things last night. and they're awful because they're all flamingly sexy and perfect and everything. there were no other body shapes beside perfect, except one pregnant one that didn't work. :)

but she's damn cute, isn't she? ;)

You are Alfred Lord Tennyson
You are very analytical and like to debate. You want truth and beauty. For you, it seems that every cloud has a silver lining. You believe it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

listening to: the TV in the other room (sometimes in the morning, it's there for company)
thinking about: my latest art project (still in the planning stages, until this afternoon)

i wish i could be there too.

all of you get in front of a TV camera today, and wave to me. :)

65 degrees (inland)


ryan's off putting some air in our bike tires


so we can go pretend it's summer for a while

awww....paul shaffer. :)

by the way, that test is totally and utterly random, and therefore much fun. i think there must be 48 different possible results, meaning some poor fool made a whole lotta little graphics. and us online test-takers think *we* spend too much time with these things. :)

Which Rainbow Brite kid are you? By Growing.

last night I re-read "Juniper" all in one sitting while eating chocolate and sucking down the ibuprofen and it was peaceful (Ryan got a chance to do his thing on the computer for a while in between hot pack re-heatings for my tummy) and

it's nice to give myself a break, even though i'm not busy anymore.

i forget that it's good to retreat, sometimes, and curl up in bed for the evening, and let my insides heal from being all crazy. :)
