you do it every day

my diet now consists solely of bacon-wrapped scallops dipped in ranch dressing.

we’ll see how that helps out on the diet front. HA.

these are just old photos that never made the official cut on my blog last month. actually mostly in february?
i’m not sure. i wish those moccasins would have fit me. they were too big. i love them. they remind me of robin hood or elves.

these are actually jason’s photos.

these pictures all hidden deep within the recesses of iPhoto on jason’s Mac. I do not understand these things.

a lot of photos that i just never posted. totally forgot about them. they were lost in the space of the archives.

i’m just not a big fan of the iphoto experience. those crepes from IKEA were wonderful, by the way.
my new year’s resolution of not eating bacon for a while has in no way come to fruition.
well, i avoid eating bacon unnecessarily while i’m at work. so that’s something.

i can’t believe i never posted any of these pictures.
what a wasted resource.
i guess?
i don’t know.

i don’t spend much time on my blog anymore, it seems.
hm.
what can i say about that?

so anyways. i guess that’s all the straggler pics i’m gonna post for now.
my blog is very exciting, isn’t it?
hm.
i took some pics last night, i think. if not, i should have because we had some more amazing yummy barbeque’d hamburgers
sigh.
i am going to be flying on an airplane this evening.
i should be excited. i’m not sure how capable i am of being ‘excited’ though.
we can talk about it later.
i need to go change my outfit.

mustard ‘n mashed potatoes

omg. everyone is in a conspiracy to make me gain 1200 lbs.

no’m sayin’?

nobody likes that as much as i do.
oh well. i can’t get enough of it for the time being.
no’m sayin’?
haha
sorry

heirloom ‘maters.

so, this lovely smoothie was for breakfast, to balance out the delightfully sinful dinner.

homemade smoothie all fruit: strawberry, mango, pineapple, banana, orange… plus coconut milk and almond milk mostly because it was too thick and needed to be smoothed out.

yellow.
the freesia will smell wonderful soon.

couldn’t resist.

my sister found this in a thrift store.
wow.

i really should stop going to frozen yogurt.
it’s time to reign in my eating situation!

pepparkaka

went over to my friend Gisela’s house after work. she has this tree on her wall. so cool. her little place is really neat!
and she has a parrot. he’s cool. his name is Josie.
i didn’t get any photos of him because he is skittish about photos.

her eensy weensy little kitchen

she asked me if i like bacon on my burgers. i said yes.
she fried it, chopped it up and put it IN the hamburger patty.
innovative.

aw, i’ve never seen anyone temp a hamburger after they cook it at home. cute. she went to culinary school, you see.

pardon me, but do you happen to have any grey poupon? hahaha
not really that funny, but still.
she said this is homemade mustard.
to be honest with you, i only like yellow mustard, not so much the fancier stuff. but it’s good, too.

what’s the lemon for, you may wonder.

why, for the tequila, of course. bahaha. i didn’t really drink it out of the bottle. just kidding. no, i was just kidding but then she said it looked like i was doing something naughty to the bottle.
anyway, it’s just a joke! relax.

$200 for this bed. i kind of want it.

so, i was decorating the one gingerbread house, but i had not yet started on decorating the second house and because of the moisture in the air, that un-decorated house just collapsed. it got all soft. i guess the glue and added decorations on the decorated house are holding it together somehow. psh. i’d better hurry up and finish decorating the good one before it collapses, too!

if you say so

i went out to dinner for hamburgers!
yum! at smash burger.

i was starving! hadn’t had a good freshly cooked hot meal in weeks, it seems. maybe longer.

so good!
mmmm.
i hate getting full. i just want to EAT FOREVER! (just kidding) (no i’m not)

i love hamburgers so much. bacon and egg on this one!!!!

ok, so i went out on a date last night. out for a burger at a hip burger joint. went for a drive thru a rich neighborhood of mansions. went thru a car wash. it was fun.

now i wish i had something so good to eat. i’m sure i have plenty of good things to eat, though. so no worries.

yup yup

this was in starbucks.
well, their restroom.
just documenting things here people.

look at how gargantuan my hands are! insanity.

i can’t help it. born that way.

my life has been so so so so so insane lately.

weird photo.
i’ve been having to use my phone a lot for photos and it’s not the best. mostly just because it hasn’t been handy or convenient to whip out my camera amidst all the hullabaloo of moving. know what i mean?

my room is partially set up. i’ll be taking actual photos of the progress as it comes along. none will be posted today, however, due to the fact that i am tired and lazy after spending my two days off MOVING. urghgllgllghhhhhhhhhh

we had to go out to breakfast this morning just to relax and get a break from the intense moving/cleaning extravaganza. i slept on the floor last night. SO uncomfortable. i have air mattresses but i had somehow packed them and did not remember where. i have my work cut out for me in the near future sorting through all my boxes. donated a bunch of stuff, too.

i think i am overly tired. i should go to bed now. good night.

the hills are alive

i feel very frustrated with my fatness.
it’s unpleasant to be overweight.
it feels disgusting.
my clothes feel gross.
it is not fun.

but i love to eat mass quantities.
and i don’t seem to love exercise. i am lazy?

i am not looking for opinions here.
i know how i feel.
FAT. and OLD.
that’s how.
and i know i am not the only female who struggles with this issue because pretty much all of us do, in some way or another.

blueberry breakfast

so, i will try to make another video or two soon.
it has to happen organically.

my pinky toe is totally deformed.
and obviously it pokes out of my lovely huaraches.
i have a feeling these will be one-season shoes.

this beer is very strong. it’s ten percent alcohol. one beer costs as much as a six pack of regular beers.
there is a homebrewer store close to where i live.

my son is INSANE!!!!!! i tell you. crazy for hamburgers!

hey

my troll doll shrine.

this is a very nice concealer. it smells like chamomile and it blends really well.

something on the lens.

worst chili cheese fries ever. i didn’t know it was possible to fuck those up. had to drench them with mustard. they had very little flavor. the burgers are still amazing, though.

probably makes sense.

that was so much fun! i want to go back and play that some more!

bugtastic

mars. i need to get my netflix video out of the mailbox and watch that sorry p.o.s. tonight so i can put it back out in the mailbox in the morning and expedite this b.s. i must have been a little tipsy when i ordered The Last Unicorn as my number one priority DVD. lord help me. i shouldn’t even bother watching it but i am going to because i know it is going to suck that bad(ly). haha.

shit. now i have to go out to the mailbox. oh well. what’s done is done.

ok. got the movie out of my mailbox. meh. whatever. silly picture, i know.

embarrassing.

in this version

this is in the break room at work.

the new department is a success!
i’m glad.
it’s a totally new experience. and i am growing and learning every minute. that’s great.

this is a weird picture.
chunky adam’s peanut butter.

oh no! tomorrow’s the employee art show! yipes. insanity.
i haven’t even communicated with anyone about it. i’ll just take in a few paintings tomorrow and see what happs. they will probably say, “NO, it is TOO late. You did not practice your due diligence.” and i will go to the corner and sulk.

here is the extent of my christmas decorating thus far this year.

just haven’t had the time. not to do things the way i want. maybe saturday? always borrowing time, stealing time, wasting time, wanting time, taking too much time!!! etcetera.

look! i bought vegetables, cut them up and made a soup! excite bike!

also i took pictures of the whole process and the results and every other thing possibly imaginable under the sun.

i saw the Squeeze In that’s in Truckee. you can see why it’s called that. it’s in a very narrow venue? whatever. it’s long and narrow like that there ‘shotgun house’ or whatever you wanna call it.

i love this game.
i love the imagery and the putting things in order.
it’s sort of like an ocd thing.

that’s something i am enjoying about my ‘new’ job.
i get to be totally ocd about arranging items on shelves and everything that involves. also the quick assimilation of a wealth of information and knowledge about so many things! yay! i love learning!

it rewlz. (i love that there are fried eggs in this version)

everything about my christmas shopping and preparation for christmas is essentially a complete failure and disaster so, yeah… there’s that.
i have never loved ‘planning’.
people who enjoy planning things confound me.
