I wish I could bundle up with each and everyone one of you in this snow sack.

If you were to propose to me with this:

I'd say YES!
Not kidding.

Kate Macdowell's porcelains make my eyeballs explode with joy.
So would being your ball and chain.

Remedy for a chilly Wednesday night sans lover?
Sneak into your favorite hotel's spa.


Last weekend me and my 3 best ladies treated our selves to a lovely spa evening of steaming and shitchatting by a fire pit. I plan on remaking that magic tonight.


41°

I know this weather forecast is scoffable to the rest of the planet but 41°
is near freezing by Miami standards. The locals don't even know what to do with themselves, the lines at Starbucks are horrendous and iguanas are freezing and falling out of palm trees. My at one time thick as New England clam chowder blood has thinned into an easily chilled tanning oil.

I watched the documentary Food, Inc. this past weekend. It touches on the corporatization of America's food, factory farming, meat contamination, and sustainability. It was as horrifying as food documentaries come. I'm not going to lie though, after watching it I still had a craving for a Chipotle burrito bowl. Those are hard to fight. Of the many topics covered I found the idea of cloning animals for feed really disturbing. I had no idea scientist and farmers were still cloning
animals, let alone cloning for consumption. I can't articulate why I find this to be so gross, but it just is.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The FDA has admitted that meat and milk from the offspring of cloned mammals such as cows, pigs, goats and sheep could very well have already entered the food supply in the United States.

"In January, the FDA declared that foods derived from cloned animals and their offspring were safe for human consumption. The U.S. Department of Agriculture, however, asked food companies to voluntarily maintain a ban on products from clones. The voluntary ban did not extend to the offspring of cloned animals."

"Consumers are likely already eating meat and drinking milk from the offspring of clones."

Tomoko Inagaki and Takuma Uematsu;
One day, I meet… Parts 1 + 2

Is the fact that I'm a Taurus -- which happens to be an earth sign, the reason I hate sweeping? Is my cosmic aura trying to keep more dirt kicking around my floor and sticking to my feet? The Taurus is supposedly one of the most self indulgent of the signs. Perhaps I shall indulge less and mop more.

Prompted by the fact that my stringently neat Gemini boyfriend swept 5 times this weekend.
I swept none.

Things my folks don't understand:

  1. Sarcasm.
  2. Satires.
  3. Not all left minded people are radical.
  4. The fact that I'll never read the Glenn Beck book they keep suggesting.
