YooHoo and Orchids

'ello!

so this weekend has been pretty alright. not as productive as i had hoped, but they never are. today i went to see the play "Peaches" at the theatre project, and it was quite glorious. it's funny, i've recently discovered that i really don't like plays, operas, and all that as much as i think i do, however the last two plays i have seen have been absolutely captivating. go figure.

i'm working on an illustration right now for... well... illustration. it's a watercolor, and it's of the fates.

i've always loved all kinds of mythology, specifically greek and egyptian, so having these sort of assignments where i get to do fun research make me smile.

other things that make me smile as of late are things that remind me of when my brother and i were little. i try to pick up things now and again that do that, as a treat for myself. this would include a six-pack of yoohoo on my most recent grocery excursion. i couldn't believe it - i brought one to work with me on thursday, and one of the other people i was working had no clue what it was - she'd never heard of it! i was rather surprised. i thought everybody had experienced yoohoo at some point in their lives. i mean, it's yoohoo! maybe it's just me.

i can feel myself coming down with something... you know how it is. waking up with a scratchy throat and stuffy head. if it knows what's good for it, it'll quit while it's ahead.

i was thinking earlier, i feel like most of the time people get fed up with blogs, blogging and bloggers because people potentially find them shallow and the like. but really, how easy is it to attempt at getting deep in a blog? most times people come off as whiny. i don't really know where i'm headed with all this, except that i hope to not just post shallow superficial things all the time, but it's inevitably going to happen. now i mean, i have plenty of things going on in my life, and i'm all about honesty, but perhaps i'm not at a place at the moment where i can freely discuss them. or at least have them out in the open on the web. hmm.... well now, that's a pickle.
