I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower
Right after the time change, I read several blogs in which people whined about how losing an hour was kicking their butts.

Seriously, people. What's wrong with you? How can you be surly about spring? Any extra fatigue you felt should have been obliterated in burst of irrational joy when it was still light after 4 p.m.

Is anyone else amused by the fact that both Faith and Glory from Buffy the Vampire Slayer are in Bring it On (one of the most inane movies ever made)? Yeah, 'cause I am.

I finally got a new bike this week to replace the one that got stolen in December. I didn't actually have time to ride it until today, but since the weather managed to contradict the forecast for another day of unending rain, I started the ass reduction project and went on a 10-mile ride to Marcus'. Since I've done nothing but sit on my butt for the last three months, it felt good to get out and sweat. The last part, down along the river, was really nice -- warm and gorgeous and peaceful. Oh, except for the occasional SUV towing a boat passing me on the shoulderless road. Yeah, nothing like fearing for your life to get that heart rate up. I also gave myself a wicked bruise when I smacked one of my spiked metal pedals into my thigh while crossing the street. Just call me grace.

On a random note, I'm seeking a good (and relatively easy) chicken and rice casserole recipe, even though it makes me sound like I'm 40 and have 3 kids. Anybody got one?

Tuesday, April 8

the morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball
You know a boy is cool when:

You, being a plant whore, drag him to the plant/flower section of the market, where, after listening to you marvel for a while, he says, "Why don't you pick something out?"

And we're not even dating.
