"Oh, the comfort - the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person - having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away."
~Dinah Craik, A Life for a Life, 1859


1:04pm-
I was up earlier, but this time I'll stay awake. Hopefully even get up..

1:21pm-
Shay and I are the only ones at Nolen's house right now.
Weird.

1:58pm-
Mom: "Go get the bag."
Little boy: "but she didn't put it down...!" (he obviously thought this was some kind of terrible injustice.)
"Gooo get. The. Bag."
"But its not mine! She wouldn't put it down...!!"
"Go get the bag before I punch you."
"Buuut...!!?!"
A little girl brings the bag.
Mom to little girl.: "Thank you, honey."
Mom to boy: "Youre in trouble."

3:39pm-
Walking down the street with chris. I've got an apple pie in one hand and a tomato in the other. I just realized how weird this probly looks.

5:27pm-
Chris and I keep ending up on dates. This time we walked through the farmers market, went by a photo store, and then went to a grocery store and got some more supplies for Mexican burgers. Cause instead of going somewhere for lunch we decided to make burgers.

Still cooking, we made:
Burgers- ground beef (and a little left over turkey), taco seasoning, black beans, orange bell peppers and ground pepper.
Then on the 'grill'.

Chipotle sour cream mix dip-
Sour cream, taco seasoning, verde sauce, ground chipotle stuff and taco sauce.

Topped with Mexican shredded cheese that we had (cause we thought the 'sharp cheddar' we got tastes like cheap American cheese) and sliced tomatoes.

Served with funyuns and later an apple pie and and icecream.

5:53pm-
We decided to name these particular southwestern burgers
"Boy Howdy Burgers".

6:19pm-
The chipotle sour cream was the biggest hit.
Soooo gooood.
Better as a dip than a topping.
Chris said he wants to put it on everything he ever eats.
I said i wanna carry a jar around with me every where I go.
Chris said he wants to wash his hair with it.

7:50pm-
In honor of Dennis Hopper on the day of his death, we decided to watch Easy Rider.

11:34pm-
Shay cut my hair.

1:33am-
The bus wouldn't show up, so we walked. Now just another 16 blocks to Nolens.

2:45am-
Nolen is trying to pack for a week and has to be up and on the bus by 11.

3:21am-
I'm cutting pineapple for the first time in my life. Ever.

3:28am-
Me: "Man, how small is Sponge bob if he lives IN one if these things..??"
Shay: "about this big". *makes his fingers about two inches apart*
"Tiny, huh.."
Me: "......yeah.."
