deep thoughts, volume i

things i hate:

• the day after christmas
• realizing at the last minute that the outfit i picked out to wear looks ridiculous and nothing else is clean/ironed or any less ridiculous
• still being caught off guard by the thought of divorce
• the smell of cumin
• lactose intolerance

things that baffle me:

• how my car can accumulate so much crap in just a day
• why i can't get to bed early no matter how hard i try
• where my atm card has disappeared to
• why every grocery store in the austin area has stopped carrying plain, unsalted rice cakes
• asian men who give the world's best pedicures and foot massages

things i love:

• giving the perfect gift
• the thought of seeing the star on the mountain when i drive into town (el paso)
• the smell of neighborhood fireplaces on crisp winter evenings
• plain, unsalted rice cakes...with peanut butter and strawberry jelly
• asian men who give the world's best pedicures and foot massages
