Must stop watching TV

and go to gym instead.

Why

does it seem like I'm the only one who isn't allowed to take things at face value?

Burp

I am on a mission to like beer. I have so far found one kind that I legitimately like, and a few that I can tolerate for a few sips (perhaps an almost-glass).

Much more significant than beer, however, is the recent degeneration of my toenails to short, dark stubs that exist more out of obligation than function. I once painted them in an attempt to disguise their unseemly appearance, but it felt kind of silly, like putting a tutu on a gorilla. Yet another one of the many tolls that dance takes on the well being of my feet.

When we were driving back from SF

it was really really foggy--we couldn't see more than ten feet in front of us--and there was a car coming in the opposite direction with its high beams on. The light scattered in the fog, and there was a sign in front of us which was silhouetted by the scattered light. The guy soon turned his headlights back down, but for about 4 seconds it was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.

It is somewhat mind boggling to know that there are little gorgeous pieces of nothing everywhere.

The Hurt Locker

is a good movie, despite the fact that I had to take a break at least every 5 minutes to calm my nerves and it took me 3 days to get through.

Probably not entirely true, but

I am officially canceling my New Year's resolution. I realize that one of the only things I like about myself is my immunity to drama. Why should I fight against it? Maybe not stressing out has given me a worse GPA, makes my life a little more boring. It also gives me a sense of perspective that I see a frustrating lack of in a lot of people. So screw it, I'm not going to go inventing trouble. Maybe it's less about making a big deal out of everything and more about just taking more risks. I will do that, and greet whatever hijincks result with open arms.

My mom made bad bread

so she wants to throw it away. But what she doesn't know is
