what i've been doing:

-arts and crafts
especially: making earrings, still knitting a sweater for my mom, other things with beads.
- writing my story which is currently about 10.5 pages single spaced and doing illustrations for it in cheap acrylic paints and pastels.
- cooking vegan desserts: cupcakes, pumpkin-oatmeal-walnut cookies, maple-walnut-caramel blondies, very elastic and silly chocolate pudding (i let it cook too long; it wasn't supposed to be elastic)
- making dumplings with my mom
- buying dresses, mostly at goodwill
- buying cds at any independent music store i find myself in
- listening to cds: tegan and sara, jens lekman (new cd is SO excellent), jolie holland, avett brothers, ghost world soundtrack (which i found after a long absence)
- oh! i organized my cds. ridiculous.
- watching firefly and x-files while making arts and crafts.
- reading for fun, a little bit: so far on the road by jack kerouac and currently anansi boys by neil gaiman.
- bantering with my brother. who is dragging my chair away from the computer.
farewell.
