80s lurkin

Two very insignificant magical things happened to me this evening (after a less than exciting day of cat sitting, homeworking, sitting in class and gymming (followed by more cat sitting/popcorn eating and homeworking)):

1. I learned how to write on pictures (yes, I learned that today #dontjudgeme)
2. I found this picture. You’re welcome, Beth + Marissa.

(And then, obviously, I put 1 & 2 together to create THIS masterpiece):The combination of this magical picture, with its epic text message quote from a not so epic boy (creeperface), is now forever saved as “80s lurkin” in my computer. Truth.

I should go to bed.
Nothing good happens for me after 10pm on week nights.
(except maybe this picture, and the whole text on photo thing, but you already knew that. worst blog post ever. sorry friends.)

Elk Noodle Soup?

Today I finished my Indian class (Contemporary Issues in Federal Indian Law). I turned in my paper and gave a presentation and I was done. One down, three to go (although all I need to do for my clinic is go to the last class, because since my cases settled I’m basically done with that too).

Oh finals, I’m not looking forward to you.

In related news I still can’t eat. Because my stomach hates me. And guys, I’m not one of those girls who just goes without eating. I eat all the time. I gain lots of weight during finals and it’s kind of gross (don’t judge me). Moral of the story: I’m hungry, but not. It’s weird.

Anyway, my dad gave me a package of elk meat when I came back from Thanksgiving. Then I got sick and didn’t eat it and I needed to cook it, like today. So I decided to make a very impromptu soup, figuring I could freeze it and eat it during finals. Healthy, homemade meals, done!

Also, confession, I made soup because I never cook red meat unless it’s wild game and I don’t really know how to cook red meat, besides chicken fried and in soup. So soup it was. I need to learn some new meat cooking ideas. If anyone has any please let me know.

I decided on an elk noodle soup? Like chicken noodle, but with elk? I don’t know. In my sick frenzy I was too in pain lazy to go to the store to buy necessary ingredients for a stew. But I did have some basics. And so elk noodle soup it was. And now my kitchen looks like this:

Because packaged noodles are for suckers. Also once you try homemade noodles in soup you’ll NEVER go back. It will ruin all other soups for you. True story. Don’t do it. It’s messy.

the end?

Pointlessness & Clothes

Do any of you have an article (or a few) of clothing that you really really love but rarely wear? I definitely do. Maybe I like them all because I spent too much money on them? I don’t know. But one of those pieces of clothing for me is a dress (it’s a little fancy for one and  for two, well, it’s a dress and I live in Seattle), one is a silk shirt (I don’t wear that one often b/c it’s so hard to clean and I’m bad about going to the dry cleaner) and the other is this little cover up thing:

I don’t know why I have such a hard time wearing it. Maybe because it’s a short sleeve wrap thing and that’s just a little awkward. Maybe because it’s gray-ish so I feel like I can only wear it with black/white tanks and I don’t have many that I use for anything other than layering. Also it’s too long (in the front, the back is normal) to wear with shorts. So, I don’t end up wearing it often. But when I do I get REALLY excited. And today was the perfect day to wear it. It was warm-ish here in Seattle and I re-discovered this long white tank in my closet. Score.

I’ve been really good at pointless posts lately. I’m sorry friends. Forgive me?

Maybe I’m having such a hard time because my mind is on the wedding I’m in this weekend. I leave SeaTac at 9:55am tomorrow. I still need to finish packing. My attention span is like that of a 2 year old who just drank some coffee. I don’t know what’s going on. But I can tell you this, it’s probably partially because I’ve had a really hard time re-adjusting to school these past two weeks. Blah.

Ok off to finish packing.

You can look forward to real, exciting posts after the wedding. Pinky promise!

XXOO

Gurl, you fine!

And tonight I’m doing a face mask so that my skin can be all awesome and beautiful for Danielle and Steffen’s wedding in Half Moon Bay this weekend (have I mentioned lately that I’m soooooo excited?).

Kylee was definitely jealous of how good I look (even though we both have in matching messy buns right now – keeping it classy):

I’m pretty sure you could scare little children with this picture. If you know, you were the type of person who liked to scare little children.

Also this post has no point. I’m just bored and tired. Very tired. But not from lack of sleep. Maybe from lack of good sleep? Someone please help me!
