Pies for Sale!
There's a hole in the world like a great black pit
and it's filled with people who are filled with shit!
And the vermin of the world inhabit it!
I'm not sure why I feel so angry today. And a titch lonely to boot. Must not become cynical. Perhaps it's the on again off again texting from someone who seems to be in a Holden Caulfield mood at the moment. Or the futile but needed talks that only seem to lead in circles. Or the dry cold. Or the house that is no longer my home. Or the lack of dog. The lack of Doug. Or the pervading feeling of a lack of productivity whenever I go somewhere just to "relax."
Mood aside, it really was a great day. Slept in. I blame Hawaii time. It was 8am there when I got up here...
I had my mouth tormented by my mother with a long overdo cleaning at her office. And off to the mall. To see Sweeney Todd. The second movie I've gone to see with a mother in less than a week. It feels like ages since I've seen a movie with someone my own age. And afterward, indulge in the consumeristic tendency of the post holidays. Needed, no, sorry, wanted...I never really need more stuff...to update the wardrobe. Well...need is a bit strong of a word. But I've become far too lazy to take in my own clothes. And it felt so good to be able to purchase things with that smaller number smiling at me. Holiday gluttony be damned! I'll walk off those few pounds I've added in the last week, but those few pounds still could not foil the smaller waist. Haha! Yes I gloat. But I worked awfully hard to ween those last few inches off...
Followed all by dinner out. No leftovers tonight. Today was a bit extravagant. Overindulgent. But still within our means.
And I got to take out my unsolicited anger and frustrations out on the seven inches of snow that accumulated in our driveway while we were out. If only it had still been light when we got home...the trees, coated in snow are truly a sight to behold.

wish I had some snow to shovel. I could use the excercise. I have been induldging quite a bit in the holiday treats - constantly in fact since St. Nicholas day. I wanted to save the things you sent me until Christmas day - but they didn't last. One day it was like I don't have a treat today? Better eat these coconut cookies. Delicious. I am actually proud of myself for not caring at all how this holiday is going to show up in my pants. It's much easier I find to hang out with men when you don't want to hear about peoples clothing sizes, diets or calorie counts. I told my two best guy friends as much before taking a fork to my left over birthday cake still on the serving tray. I'm so thankful to be hanging out with you guys so I don't have to hear aobut that bs. they smiled and laughed and then one of them starting eating the left over frosting with a spoon. And I was completely ok with that.
P.S. Cheer up. And if Holden Caufield is who I think it is - tell him to email me!
Post-holiday blahs, I hear you.
I didn't realise I was singing along with Sweeney Todd while waiting to cross the street until a guy passed me and looked at me like I was crazy. What? "With the price of meat what it is/when you get it/if you get it/man you'd think it was a trick finding pork/Animals/What are dying in the streets..."
Funny thing is I think it was Thomas Jefferson, but I don't really remember what he looks like.
