Recent Disasters

1) It was SO exciting and fun yesterday (Sunday) to find the rice I cooked on SATURDAY still in the pan on the stove- I had totally forgotten to put it in tupperware things! GROSS (see crabby picture)


2) I found this pink chewing gum on my bike wheel?!* And I was like, where the F did that come from because I don't CHEW gum because of my jaw. It was quite a mystery until I remembered that SingingJ crashed on my hide-a-bed last weekend and I know that little punk was chewing gum before bed because I specifically remember saying, "Aren't you going to throw out your gum?" and he was like, "I'm just going to swallow it." NOT :) What should I do? the gum is still on the tire as we speak, same as it is in the picture.


3) This is a picture of my lunch today, not exactly a disaster, but a pretty piss poor meal if you ask me. Just so you are sure, that is a hard boiled egg, a piece of red pepper, some raw zucchinis, and some pita bread. Yumm :) Not pictured are 4 stripey cookies that I bought from the mini mart last night.


4) Finally, look at my shoes! They actually both broke in half on exactly the SAME DAY! Talk about bad shoe integrity and super dumbness. The only light at the end of the tunnel was that I already found a pair of shoes on sale from Fontana! YAY


I wasn't going to, but why not! One last weird food item. Last night, I ate re-heated (in the oven) nachos for dinner, sort of soggy and weird, but not that bad! I even added some extra cheese!

Finally, a post which connects to the title of this blog!

Your crabby rice picture looks like my disgusted burned rice picture. Perhaps we should avoid rice.

Wanna hear something awesome? Last night I couldn't decide if I should finish my grant or finish my reading. So instead I went to bed! I'm the best student ever.

I bet those shoes had hairline fractures that just exploded on the same day!

But you've had them a long time, right?

You could put an ice cube on the gum to make it break off?

Maybe shoes mate for life, and when the one shoe died the other one did too, like old people who die right after their spouse. (Ben Folds - "Next door there's an old shoe who lived to its nineties and one day passed away in its sleep. Its wife, she stayed for a couple of days and passed away.") In any case, at least you don't have to feel guilty about throwing away one good shoe and one bad one.

Surprise! What did Talie and Ms. Sequitur find? HA I meant Ms. NON-Sequitur of course.... How exciting, a teeny tiny (or tee-niny as my Grandma B says) little critter. A baby gecko is gracing her presence on my keyboard. Check out this amazing video footage taken immediately upon noticing the gecko/lizard/cold blooded animal: PS: I made it to work today. I continue to do a Christian Cross each time I arrive somewhere. If anyone knows another religious type sayings I can do or say when I am safe, I would appreciate it. I'm not sure if Jesus and I are vibing.  BIG HUGS Non-Sequitur!

SATURday

In the Park...I think it was the 4th of July. (Think that song by Chicago) Well, it's the 7th today- So how was everyone's 4th? How do you feel about your independence? I was thinking about that-- how come we always say, "Happy 4th!" and not "Happy Independence!" Wouldn't it seriously be an adventure if we were still part of England? Maybe we'd all have British accents and Canada and the US would all be like one big country. Maybe we'd all have health care? And calling my Canadian friends wouldn't be long distance! Yesss! Pets are so much work. Man, I'm babysitting these fish and they are exhausting. I mean, I have to feed them TWICE a day. Come on! Hee Hee. :) I suppose that's why I murdered my fish in college...I mean I didn't murder him/her I just forgot to feed him/her for like a week or so and then he/she died. Do fish REALLY have a gender? No. They are all just fish. Fish sex (sex like making love) would b...

Mutinondo

Whoa! What a cool place this Mutinondo  was!  It is is a woodland, wilderness area NORTH EAST of Lusaka about 10 hours by bus. (Sorry about the yelling, that is a little shout out to my friend, you know who you are) (Also,  let me know if the link doesn't work) There were these gorgeous look-out points and mountains....well, large granite hills, but they were steep enough and we climbed up 2 of them. It took about 30 minutes to get to the top of each.  In the top video I'm reaching the top of the mountain!  You can hear our cool driver Mr. K cheering? :) me on!  These photos are in no order exactly, but I'll talk a little about each one! I think this one is on top of the first mountain, called Charlie's Rock This is horse poop (I know you are supposed to say scat in the wilderness, but I think horse poop is funnier. The place has some horses that we didn't ride) The view. Whoa. A little creature roaming around. He was furry and I wonder ...
