I thought that it would be nice if we all could post something about our days, something that we thought it was funny, curious, at the work, on the way home or at home with our family...
As it's still morning here, nothing special happened yet, but later I'll see something...


Purify the colors, purify my mind,
and spread the ashes of the colors
over this heart of mine!

we've had tears and tantrums and the funny faces. but still none of the brown stuff.

until now! Yay! we got us some curry sauce! mmm...nice.

you can see the relief all ready. literally.

This morning I finally took up a generous friend of mine who is a coach and she spent an hour running me through some intervals in a swimming pool and I know this is boring to most people but it was pretty great. This and making sure I saw the Pixies are the only times since my baby was born when I have done something just for me, just for fun. This was the highlight
of my month.

Happy for you Kathryn! In fact my day was nothing but work, carrying some very heavy boxes, pretending to be an electrician and so on... boring day!

Realising that those hippy homeopathic anti-jetlag pills have actually worked.

Convincing my co-workers that they haven't so that I could have a lazy day today.

Cooking myself (and just me!) pork chops with a sauce made from red onion, red wine and Canadian maple syrup (I kid you not, its an actual recipe).

Also roast potatoes.

Listening to Honeycomb for the first time. I've listened to it before, but it feels like this is the first time that I'm giving it the attention that it deserves. I was inspired by the Sing For Joy thread in the FB Chat.

Washing my hair with an new shampoo (Garnier Fructis, after years of Petrole Hahn).

My days have been kind of shitty for a week now, 16 hours at work or more (sometimes much more).

Hopefully the end of the week will be better.

Mr. Monsieur, it might interest you to know that Garnier Fructis is a big deal here in America. Sarah Jessica Parker of Sex in the City fame is the spokeswoman and it's considered high-end, coveted stuff.

The water main burst outside our house last night.
No water for us until we get home.

Not cool, but a highlight nonetheless.

Going back to 11 hour days at work - low point.

I snapped my D string. Oh wait, that was my low point.

I attended a self marketing course. It was very useful.

This morning The Teacher came out of the school and into the parking lot (she thought I was leaving, but I was only goin to my car to get checkbook and come back) in 7 degree weather to make sure she thanked me for the CD case and track listing i made her for the CD i gave her a while back which she enjoys very much and listens to all the time.
That felt good.

whose name will not be mentioned here but whose name
will instead be praised to the heavens for all eternity!

Reading this forum, eating some cereal, kissing my wife, walking the cat, listening to the arcade fire, wiping my ass, talking to samo, clocking out @ 4:30, watching the the history channel,...falling asleep.

long-sought Clash thingies. I am one happy girl and he is one
lovely forum member,so generous and kind.

Watching that man pick his nose infront of my office.


Also...

Watching this lady laugh to herself(or at herself) on the bus today. Well not really to herself...but to some imaginary guy sitting in front of her. It made the bus ride much more pleasant... for everyone. No one could help smiling.

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta

Omigod! Are we going off topic!? Horrors. No, it was not. It was
someone else but a worthwhile, wonderful human being nonetheless.

We interrupt this posting to throw Miss Kittie a
congratulations, you aced your exam mini-party

I have no idea what 1% off first means but it sounds
very good!

coming up with part of a Frank Blackish type tune on the way to work.

In our invincible youth
we are like pieces of meat

Get through the music
get on with the cool
we don't want the truth.

I've got your alligator
I saw you standing in line
I know you're a real
cool
cookie.
