Brown Paper Book Cover Keeping My Veganomicon Safe

I got an awesome book for Christmas called The Veganomicon. It’s lovely and perfect and I don’t want to slosh the cover with cooking shrapnel. Thus the memories of Jr. High book cover making entered my brain and voila! The book now looks like my old math text book, except this time I have a boy’s name (grown man at this point) to put in the heart with mine. Not to metnion, the Class of 86 graffiti that was an absolute must, way back before we all realized how old it would make us feel 20-something years later.

I even got it to fit pretty snug without ripping the bend...a true master never loses her touch.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Isn’t this what being on the internet is all about? Self acknowledgement? Drawing attention to my every move, thought, idea, and life event? I say yes.

Just putting a post out into the ocean of bazillion bazillion kadrillion other bits of information is like staking claim to some kind of importance in the universe.

I am pretty sure that the whole universe won’t have time to stop by and wish me a happy birthday right now, so I’ll wait. :(

While I wait I”ll take some pictures with my new web cam..best gift of the day..oh yea You would think I have never used these new-fangled contraptions they call cameras…boy, they sure are fancy.

That Time I Was Born…

I asked my mom if I was breach or anything weird like that when I was born. I have a slight strange little defect at the bottom of my spine and wondered if I was twisted around in there, being difficult as always, and that’s what caused it.

Here is her reply:

No ,but the Doctor was on drugs and he gave me a lot of medicine that I did not want. About one week after you was born he went into rehab. I woke up once and cursed him and could hear the nurse saying oh my god her labor has stopped. Maybe at that point they pulled on you head or leg or whatever it took to get you out.
