yams

I am eating a yam. It is really, really tasty. Last time I tried to bake a yam, it exploded. Well, actually, the pan it was in exploded. We tried to eat some of the yams, until Robb realized the crunchy bits were pieces of pyrex.. Luckily, nobody was injured in the explosion. Except maybe small parts of Robb's throat. I am glad to report that no pans (or yams) were injured in the making of my afternoon snack this time. Yeah me!

gummi blue sharks

Why am I so fascinated with gummi sea creatures? Gummi octopi, gummi sharks, gummi fish... the octopi are really great. You can rip each leg off individually and eat it like it was a gummi worm. So it's like 8 gummi worms strapped to a gummi bear. Scary...

I'm going to go climb at Bishop this weekend. I'm so excited. I have never been climbing there. Right now, it's just me and Obi. It should be a lot of fun. I hope I stay motivated. These climbs are HIGH!!! Check back with me on Monday to make sure I'm still in one piece.

My new roomie is moving in this week. I'm not that excited about it. I want to live on my own honestly. I'm so sick of having to live with somebody I don't really want to live with. Bleh. But, she's better than the previous one... so I'm at least moving in the right direction. It's not like she's that bad... I just don't know how I'm gonna like it... Oh well, new stuff... just have to try it and see how it goes.

I'm gonna eat another shark now...

Uh.. wow.. I feel so... open

Um. Hmm... so this is the first of what may be many posts.

To begin with, the power was out on Tuesday at Scripps. I had a prospective student staying with me who was mostly tired and didn't talk much. That was less interesting than it could have been. Last year on the weekend of Open House, I was getting drunk in PB with some random hot guy from Colorado. This year, I went to the burial of Obi's younger brother. The burial definitely left more of an impression.

Today I received an IM from Larry about the use of the Apple logo on exstacy pills. After debating how to spell exstacy for a minute.. I realized something. I have lots of friends that have done drugs. I feel in a really strange minority not to have done any drugs. I feel somehow left out. But I don't really want to do drugs to join the club. At this moment I can think of three people that I am friends with that have not tried some sort of recreational drug. They are some of the most innocent people I know. Am I like that? Do people think of me that way? Hmm...

Going climbing tonight. That should be cool.
