steve martin would look weird without hair

so true.

ugh... do you ever have those days where it seems like everything sucks for no reason? from the moment you wake up: everything sucks. i'd go into a lot of detail about which things suck most and why and how and how it makes me feel, etcetera, but i think that'd just be depressing. so, suffice to say, today sucked for no reason.

i didn't sleep very well last night, so that could be a factor. i woke up and immediately slumped downstairs to sit in front of the tv with a bowl of raisin bran (which sucked). only sucky things were playing but i watched anyway, and i had needed to shower last night but didn't so i was feeling increasingly filthy and sucky and my soul was being eaten alive by crappy tv, so i decided i needed to go do something.

(insert 60 minutes of getting ready/deciding what to do time here)

i got dressed, jumped into my truck, rolled down both the windows and turned the radio up enough for all my neighbors to hear (classic rock, booyah) and started to drive. think no directions, just drive. it was really warm today, and it felt amazing. i ended up discovering a parking lot and some bike/walking trails in saratoga springs, so i parked and sat for a while, then decided to go for a walk. the trail was wide and paved for a while, but as it wound into a little grove of trees it turned into dirt and rock -- which was ideal, really. i felt like adventuring. i had to forge a tiny place where the stream overflowed across the path, and then i off-roaded it a little and discovered a hot spring. a hot spring! so random! the air smelled like sulfur and there was heat bubbling up from the bottom of this little pond; it was kindof eerie. then some people started to emerge out of the bushes and i ran away cause i figured they were planning on abducting me, but it was a nice mini-adventure. just what i needed.

i'm desperately hoping tomorrow will be better. i'll post some pictures of another dress i made, and i'll try and stay positive.

but first, i'll leave you with this.



go. see. iron man.
it was FREAKING AWESOME.

good morning, lehi

that discovery channel video i posted yesterday has been stuck in my head, and stuck good. it makes me excited for life. i really do love the whole world, too! i love seashells and sunshine, and indiana jones and root beer floats (boomdiyada, boomdiyada). i'm really wanting to plan some epic trip somewhere, like to a state i've never been or someplace way exotic. anyone wanna hit up easter island with me? i'd be happy just to drive to moab for a weekend.

just let me know.

i've gone sewing mad, i think. i can't stop; it's addicting. i reconned a gigantic button-down shirt i found for 4 bucks at old navy the other day into this little thing:







and i bought some way awesome fabric for $2/yd at wal-mart yesterday which is quickly becoming yet another dress. hooray for no school!


...yeah i'm gonna go sew now. :)

youtube's being a farthead and isn't letting me copy the embedded code, so i must present this premium video via link. it's a good one, though, so i'd suggest checking it out.

jodi, can we adopt this word too?

GIRLY MAAANNN!!!!!!!!



i didn't think it got much better than bollywood knockoffs, but obviously i didn't calculate what would happen when some guy added an english "translation". the answer is double extra hilarity!


check out the "crazy indian video", too.

so...

so i may not be married. i may not have adorable kids (let alone pictures of them) and i may not be off having adventures with the aforementioned family i don't have. i may not even have my own house.

but i still deserve a blog, dangit!!

i guess. or whatever. what? so i dyed my hair tonight, after having to run back to wal-mart for another box when i opened the box i bought earlier only to discover the actual hair dye was missing. yay for extra laytex gloves! i saw some lady blow a tire on the freeway today in almost the exact spot where i blew mine last week, and i was going to stop and help her out because nobody stopped to help me, but i couldn't change lanes in time and i had an appointment to go to anyway. so, if anyone knows a lady who got stranded on the side of the freeway today, tell her i'm sorry!



aaand that's basically all my interesting news. my chair is squeaky.
