Current Mood: rushed

I am a Very Silly Hat.

ackkkkkkk.

Lovely things that are in my life
-How whenever one of my best friends calls, he always laughs after I answer, and I asked him why today and he said its because I sound so happy to hear from him and its really cute. I just love hearing from him

-New music, Tegan and Sara, Bon Iver, Kings of Leon, Metronomy

-Two delicious birthday cakes. Two. And they were amazing

-One completely sexy and amazing dress that makes me look like a million bucks. Thanks mom

-Another best friend who told me her goal was to gain back the 20 pounds she has lost in college. I am so proud of her.

-The green apple books tote bag I got for free , which is great because I lost my old one.

-A whole lots of amazing lovely people in my life... and I'm seeing 90% of them in less than a week!

-Going back to Oberlin

I made vegan pecan pie for reclaimed postcolonial vegan thanksgiving; I made a bunch of shirts with gay whales on them, and I made an etsy to sell them on: ohthehumanatee.etsy.com

gay whales! vegan humanatees! all matter of subversive marine mammals!

arg, sometimes a project comes along so slowly that you wonder why you even started it. I thought I'd be able to use the sewing machine for this. sewing by hand is a PAIN, and so uneven.

...
I am contemplating making bandana pants and selling them to the contra community. thoughts?

(this was spurred on by Alex K-G appearing at my door today, saying hi, walking around my house, and then running off to go to his family's thanksgiving. he'd been driving past sunderland, and it was nice of him to say hi, although for the life of me I don't understand people who have a billion friends and only give a minute of time to each of them. I was wearing my bandana pants (festive! for the holiday!) and he said he wanted some.)

My head hurts from looking at things close-up but I miss Mars and my novel and am going to write some, I think.

1. Went shopping with my sister. We now wear the same size in jeans, and sometimes I wear a smaller size. She is two inches at least shorter and five years younger.

Guilt. Major guilt.

And I see one of my best friends from Oberlin lose 20-30 pounds in the last 2.5 years, going from slim/slender bu healthfully so... to well. She knows she has a problem and is doing all she can, and I'm going to do all I can.

And at my new lowish weight after NZ and I'm just telling my body "please, please, please, let me get what i want this time" And my parents saying "you look so skinny"

I dont look horribly skinny. i look like me, except minus about ten pounds, and bigger bra size. Yeah, i don't how that happen. But I like barely being able to pinch my stomach. I like boys reaction to me saying "wow" instead of thinking I'm ugly. Yes, that actually happened in NZ.

But I like eating pancakes for breakfast...even though they are calorier]ific. I don't like getting all shaky and sweat and heart speedy three hours later, this happened twice and luckily both times had access to food, and 20 minutes later all good.

2. Family is the same. But different. We all treat each other similar... but I can tell that we have all changed, possibly for the better. I'm being more myself, haven't yet let out my goofy side but am more likely to ask my dad to wait until i finish making a point before he interrupts with his, or telling him that the question he just asked, he had asked 30 minutes previously.

3. Best part of my day yesterday, 1.5 hour convo with Jamie and .5 with jeff. Jeff's could have lasted longer but had dinner waiting for me. I miss my inner circle.

4. I'm not going down that rabbit hole again. I think I'm actually done.
