This is brilliant.

Have you seen the Green Porno on Sundance channel yet? Isabella Rossellini demonstrates the mating behavior of creepy crawly bugs. It's artistically creative, performance art-like, but with graphic scientific explanations. It's bizarre. start with the spider or earthworm. If you don't mind seeing an elderly Italian actress humping a life-sized puppet insect, try the others.

I hate pepid. I hate installing applications. I'm mad at my BB. It will be punished.

So I will watch a kitty video to unwind. Hard to stay mad when you're watching this.

I'm posting this and the previous from my classroom in Regis. I got here a few minutes early and decided to test the wi-fi. Success! I promise not to use the net once class starts ;-)

Miranda has started a monthly dinner group for a bunch of girls. I'm so excited for it! We're planning our first dinner for the middle of May. She started a website, which I added to my list of links to the right, or you can click to it here. There should be a lot of great recipes you can browse!

I got a couple great products at REI today. This anti-chafing stuff is supposed to prevent blisters. I put it on this afternoon, after going on a long hike this morning in thick boots. Oh my, my feet felt so good in my stiff red flats that I had changed into. I don't know if they will truly prevent blisters, but it was very soothing. It's also a sunblocker, great for my frequently burned footsies in the summer. It can be used anywhere on the body. I hate applying sunblock in the morning (so greasy!) so if I unexpectedly find myself outdoors for a while, I can whip this out of my purse and protect my nose.






Ben and I have been lusting over these stylish, cancer-free aluminum bottles. Especially since Nate got one. Since I'll need to stay hydrated to power through 7 hours of classes each day, I can justify buying this cute bottle, right?

I freaking LOVE these shirts. They had another collection that I fawned over for quite some time before it eventually sold out. The sweet embroidery and feminine cuts coupled with irreverent words - it's wonderful! They have posted a new collection. Many are reprints of the same design but with new sayings. Sadly, I'm not as fond of these new sayings because they overuse the F-word. High impact, I guess. But there are still a few I would conceivably wear. And some I wish I could wear. Were I to spend $90 on a shirt (Ha!).
