Today didn't feel like Monday. It had more of a Tuesday or Wednesday feel to it, but not Monday. It was too good for a Monday. And good it was. It was the weather that started it. It was sunshiney and not freezing. All around gorgeous. I sat around and drew and ate too much cheese sandwich then I realized that I was lovely out so I bundled myself and snatched up my book and a pencil and went down to the river. That was also gorgeous though the rustling foliage and skunk scent made me a little nervous.

I made a cake today. Our mixer konked out last week so I didn't have my trusty Kitchen Aid at my side which was slightly daunting especially for a cake. but it turned out fairly well. The batter seemed heavy which is why I wasn't especially surprised when it fell. But oh well. It still tastes decent. Between the cake and the chicken parm I made yesterday for lunch I realized how much I missed the kitchen when I can't stand to be in it because of the smell. Maybe someday I can go to culinary school. I want to learn more. But I would not do well with animals especially since I find raw meat so shudder-inducing. But really, right now I am absolutely itching to get out of school, I don't know why I would want to go back. Probably because i want to learn. There are so many things I want to learn. If I could I would do it all: design, studio, music, seamstress-ing and costume, food. But I would be in school for decades and getting by on student loans for that, neither of which i want to do. Besides, I am going to be lucky to get out of school in 2-3 years as it is. Bleck. Really.

I drew a lot today. I haven't put out this many drawings in a long time. Granted, most of them are just small sketches, but still, there is a small stack of them on the floor beside me. It makes me very happy. I guess that is what nice weather does to me.

Doctors appointment tomorrow in BG. I want to go to Finders but for me Finders spells disaster, or rather bankruptcy since i always drop large amounts of cash on stacks on used CDs. Its a problem and I know that I have it. Maybe I will just peruse. Go in and browse, take in the patchouli incense, float around the bargain section and be done. Don't go looking for anything. Thats what gets me in trouble, having a mission.

Maybe we can just get sandwiches and be done with it.
