6:10pm

gonna cook jason and some dinner now. beef tips fried in soy sauce and sesame oil with a bit of curry. then i put that over angel hair pasta. yum! gotta get my carbs in today as tomorrow i will not eat any. drinking my vanilla coke. lemon sorbet for dessert :)

do you notice that the white woman on the jim leherer news hour cannot move her forehead at all? botox city, u.s.a. she also really looks like a bjoran on star trek. i don't know how to spell bjoran. but you know the ones with the little bone in the middle of their forehead that runs vertically in between their eyes and down their nose a bit? or she just looks like some sort of star trek character because of her large forehead that does not move. i'm not saying she looks bad, i'm saying she looks interesting.

5:42pm

wow, i am so proud of myself! i got to the p.o. box and sent off lots of packages. i did the dishes, cleaned a bit, did some laundry, took a bath, took pictures, bought some food!

and jae d. bought me some wool to spin and sent it to my house as a surprise! wow! how totally awesome!! :)

THANKS JAE!!!

let me know if you'd like me to make you something out of it in return!

tomorrow i'm going to go back on the atkin's diet for a week (i hope i can do it) to lose a few more pounds. i have been between 113 and 115 pounds. if i could just lose 3 more, that'd be great. i'm just going to keep chipping away at it like that. and i really have to find the discipline to get outside and walk everyday. there is just no excuse!

i'll see if i can deal with atkin's , tho, and having pms at the same time, that might be a little difficult!

now jason got back from work and he is playing with the dogs over here. i'm going to go say hello to him...

oh...and when i was in the little store this asshole guy came up to me and tapped me on the shoulder and asked me if i was wearing headphones so it would drown out people who wanted to talk to me on the street so people wouldn't bug me. HELLO? asshole.

i said, no i wear headphones because i like to listen to music. dork.

then he stole a pack of peanuts and ate them while wandering the store. the cashier said, hey dude pay for those. asshole guy continued to be an ass. it was me and some other timid guy getting are stuff rung up. asshole man breathing down or necks, obviously not going to buy anything and i was scared that after he left he would harass the little asian man cashier...even tho he was not intimidated either. still.. not a good scene.

finally i turned around and said HEY stop being such an ass. life is hard enough for all of us without you being an asshole. life is hard for all of us. and the guy looks at me incredulously and yells FUCK YOU!!! and i yell , no fuck YOU!

and he storms out of the store.

asian guy thanks me and i say i have been too long in retail myself and those kind of people drive me nuts.

don't mess with PMS girl. don't even try.

ok, to get back into the swing of taking pictures again, since i have fallen off the wagon on that, i willjumpstart my motor by making myself take at least 5 pictures a day. i remember that is how i started anagrams in the first place. as a little thing to motivate me to take 5 pictures a day. and then usually, you end up taking more than 5. but i will just start there. i can do it. i must get back to picture taking!

i have so much to get done today but it's all little stuff. first i called my accountant to see if he was done with 1999 taxes since those were due by the state today. but he wasn't around. i can only hope he called them and told them to extend that date or he filed it.
i'm sure it will be ok. he has never made a mistake with me yet and knows what is going on more than i do, obviously.

sonia emailed me and told me she can't do my hair tomorrow because she is running behind on things and has hairpolice meetings tomorrow. thats' ok! i was pretty surprised she thought she could do my hair at all on such short notice. she says she can do it, tho, in september. i hope i can have cool hair by the time goldfrapp play at the fine line!

now i must work on getting packages ready to send off. i just need to tape them up and write the addresses on there.

and i need to call the phone co and pay that bill. i need to pay electric, too, but that will have to wait.

oh, and i have to go do the anacam biz now. everyday i have to run the credit cards through on whoever's day of renewal it is today.

i just want to thank you for helping to support me even when i have weird stressful downtime.

you have no idea what a positive impact you have on my life by allowing me to be an artist.

thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!
