what's on my mind...... (and it isn't much :)

i must get out of here. yesterday it was at least 110 degrees :| picking apples, trying to act all fall-like (the jumpers and jeans didn't stand a chance...) while perspiring to death, is just awful times one million. people in Massachusetts don't know how lucky they are - they get to pick apples AND wear clothes AND not be blinded by sweat :(

one minus point for Massachusetts - they don't have Cici's Pizza which i have fallen in love with this weekend... their salad with the banana peppers and cherry tomatoes and big fresh hoopy onions, not to mention pasta (and it's ALL all you can eat!!), plus awesome veggie flatbread pizza, plus a bazillion other kinds of pizza even one with mac and cheese on top, plus warm brownies, plus gooey cinnamon rolls - all for $3.99 :| California FINALLY has a check in it's lonesome empty 'pro' column on my spreadsheet!!

one more minus of Massachusetts - it's a lot of syllables to type... so is California but California has all the letters in our names so it's easier to type...

still looking for a huge upright freezer for the garage. i refuse to buy a brand new one (we are moving to Massachusetts, you see :) but the ones on Craigs List are all used and might have stored things like frozen rats or worse still, frozen sperm (in my mind, everything is unimaginably horrible:) hmmm, what to do.... i want a brand new one that someone has won, but they don't need, who will bring to my garage for under $100. it can even have a small dent in the door, i'm not that fussy :)

i smell like babies.... there are worse things to smell like :)

i can't decide whether Clarice would be happier in a fishbowl (drum shaped not round) or to stay in her little fish tank. she is a very shy fish and has a large privacy shell plus a red phonebox which she uses all the time. plus i sandwich her tank between the can opener and fruit bowl so the cats can't terrorize her. i love the fishbowl, it's more space and it looks much cuter but it doesn't have a top to keep cat paws out and it would take up more counter space. i should send a video to Nate, huh? Nate would know what to do!!

i also can't decide whether to walk to Trader Joe's in the 100 degree heat... i should because i have to lose all the weight from the million of banana peppers/flatbread pizza/brownies i ate yesterday but i don't want to bake to the sidewalk either.... did i already put a big red X in the California column about the sunshine....? if not, here it is and it's not nearly big enough :|

X

i must must must go to the bank too... i now have so much money in my wallet, it won't fasten and i have checks that i KNOW are approaching the six month mark... why do i fear the bank so much??!

off to walk - wish me luck, if i bake to the sidewalk, i probably won't be posting later :(
