Implosions in the Closet
My closet fell apart three times in the past two days. That is not cool with me. My dad bought some reinforcements and such, so it looks like things are going to be solid at least for awhile. However I already had everything out all over my room so I counted shoes before I put them away(meaning: tossed and shoved them onto the floor of my tiny closet). It was a suprising display of my girl-dom, however modest.
Boots: 2 (khaki, black)
Heels: 7 (3 black, 2 white, 1 brown, 1 red)
Sandals: 4 (1 brown pseudo-leather, 1 yellow thongs, 1 green Vans thongs, 1 pair wooden viet)
Slippers: 2 (1 old lady pink, 1 Vans khaki)
Sneakers: 6 (1 red/white bowling, 1 really old white, 1 brown leathery laceups, 3 Vans: khaki, red, navy)
Other news I forgot to mention: I keep some empty bottles of my favourite kosher grape juice in a wine rack. It's been knocked over more than a few times lately, and I noticed that there was some liquid left in one. I opened it and took a sniff and am pretty sure that it fermented. It smelled a lot like apple cider vinegar. Sort of pretty. Anyway I know that accident-fermentation is vastly different than on-purpose fermentation, but now I want to try and make wine. It sounds fun and educational. And you all know that those are my favourite activities.
I still haven't made cookies. My baking record is not awesome so I am being cowardly on the start-up. It always turns out edible, but some times better than others. Of course my pizza making was the low point.
Halloween is coming and I still have no costume. I have a few dresses with potential. But that potential requires sewing and accessories. And I think that sewing by hand is not my favourite thing right now. I really want a sewing machine but I just can't bring myself to spend the cash... Says the girl who bought a totally unneccessary hat not long ago and has a serious book-buying issue.
My mini chocolate sort of cheesecake things with raspberry topping turned out tastily even though the philo dough was pretty far gone.
Regaining contact with old friends is great, especially when you find out that they haven't changed all that much. And even better, you have both changed in very similar ways. Excepting, of course, certian preferences that have evolved in order to preserve the species and such.
This has not been such a good post, despite the information-packed-ness. I dislike the listing thing but it gets the job done. Soon I will write something at least pseudo-fancy. And something a little less full of hyphens. -- G 'Bye, Sonya -- . ( 22.10.05 ) .
