Art teacher.

I look like a middle school art teacher today. I think it might be a combination of the brooch, earrings, and scarf.

This one speaks for itself.

Awkward TV

I was just watching the local news station and they have a segment where a chef goes to someone's house to cook a meal using the ingredients in that person's cupboards. The chef says, "OK, let's see what we have to work with" as he opens up the refrigerator and sees a beef tenderloin, puff pastry, tomatoes, mozzarella, and balsamic vinegar - all grouped together. The chef contemplates for a minute and says, "I'm thinking beef wellington and caprese salad..." He then opens up the bag of ingredients he brought and... Surprise! He pulls out the rest of the ingredients for the beef wellington, that he just randomly brought - mushrooms and 1 onion.

At the end of the segment the TV hosts were talking back and forth:

Host #1: He should do that professionally!

Host #2: (in a quiet voice) Oh I wouldn't go that far...

My sisters are just as weird as me.

A video my sister made of her cat Sally.

Homemade bathroom music dock.

This morning (at Carrie's apartment)...

Carrie: Want to see how I listen to music while I'm in the shower?????!!!

Me: Yeah!!!!!

[Carrie rustling through her pots and pans, a bit of maneuvering of stuff in the bathroom, a demonstration of the volume before putting her phone on her homemade dock...]

5 minutes later...here's the final product! Who needs Bose anyway??!

Some days you just see weird things.

I had a very interesting day...

1. On my way to South Haven my attention was caught by a guy video taping himself cutting the lawn in a bikini and wearing bright red lipstick. I had to drive by again to make sure I wasn't going crazy. I was trying to discreetly capture a photo, but I wasn't successful (at being discreet or getting a photo).

2. On a moped ride I was stopped at an intersection and an Aztec was driving through the light and I swear there was no one driving it... or anyone at all in the car for that matter.

3. On the same moped ride I blew past a beat up doll head on the side of the road.

... and then I ran over a dead squirrel (yes, while I was riding the moped). That was gross.

I just want to eat, with some beeeeats!

Uh huh. You heard right. I added some beatz (and made a music video) to the song I wrote back in January (I just want to eat)...




I have had some requests for the song lyrics. In this video I only used the first verse and refrain (see below). Click here for the full lyrics.

Verse 1

When I hear the word “eat”

My ears touch the sky

Oh the glorious sound

I’m right at your feet

I just want to eat!

Refrain

It’s all that I am

It’s all that I want

I wait all day long

I love to eat! I just want to eat!

Midnight Donut Run

I am in the process of redoing a chair right now and spent the evening in my driveway sanding it down to bare wood. At one point during the rigorous sanding I randomly smelled a donut and, from that sniff on, was determined to hit up the local donut mill when I was done in order to fulfill my craving. That I did... but I ran into an obstacle on my journey home. Good thing I had a tasty, fresh mini apple fritter to keep me occupied because when I turned into my neighborhood, this is what I saw.


Only I would get stopped on my way back from a midnight donut run by a semi that is stuck sideways and blocking the entire road... I sat there for 3 minutes and the thing couldn't go forward or backward for anything. Don't those tires look super mini for a truck that size?! Just in case you're wondering, this is not the kind of street that semis travel on frequently, if ever, and usually no vehicles drive down this street past 10pm, so the chances of getting stuck at this hour are pretty slim.

Once I was done devouring the mini apple fritter I decided I should probably turn around and take a different route home. I wonder if it's still stuck...
