Neglected

I'm sorry that I have neglected the blog for a few days......I just didn't have anything to write about. I mean sure, I can always write about how I feel about animal abuse and people that treat children bad and skanky strippers .....but I have enough entries like that for now, until I write about it again, because I will. But to sum it up in one word, the how I'm feeling about what I just mentioned......BARF!
So, not much has happened with me. The weather is kind of cold but sunny. I have not worked since a couple of weeks. I have been at home, with a few hikes thrown in here and there. And I have been watching Breaking Bad. I know I am talking about Breaking Bad in every other entry lately, only because it is THAT good! The person that came up with that story is a freakin' genius! Plus the acting is amazing. I can only IMAGINE how much fun it must had been to work on that production. And what about Saul!!? That guy is HILARIOUS! He has the best lines ever. He reminds me of an attorney in Vegas that used to have funny commercials on TV too, Glen Lerner. I watched seven episodes of Breaking Bad last night, back to back. What am I going to do when I am done with Breaking Bad? I think set up my own operation in my basement. I am looking for a loyal cook, with vast knowledge in chemistry. I have decided to keep it on a small scale because like we say in Sweden, "Ju fler kockar desto stรถrre soppa". Basically the more people involved in something, the bigger the mess. Or I might just be safe and boring and re watch all the episodes instead. So I stay out of jail, because I don't know a Saul. This has been me the last couple of weeks......



But I did find a jacket yesterday that I LOVE. And here in town of all places, at Sportsmans Warehouse. It is kind of military looking, designed in Germany, lots of nice details like red stitching and cool buttons. Totally my style. I like military style jackets because I'm the one who knocks. ;-)



And a few weeks ago I got one of those winter skirts, meaning a skirt you wear over your legging or pants to add en extra layer of warmth to your behind. Mine is by SKHOOP and that's a Swedish company. I might get a more colorful one too.
I made some pierogis yesterday. These ones were cheese filled. Not that great, the cheese was kind of curdy and sweet, almost like cottage cheese. My Mom told me to make my own pierogis, like she does. I think I just have to have Mom over at some point so I can get her the ingredients, provide the kitchen and she can make the pierogis. I like my pierogis with lots of onion and sour creme.



Besides that the Winter Olympics start tonight! I'm kind of excited, I'm might look at it now and then. Mostly to get a glimpse of my man Vladimir than anything else. I was personally invited by him to go but I told him I'd rather visit in the summertime when the weather is nice and when he is not so occupied with the Olympics. He begged for me to come and even sent flowers but sometimes you just have to make men wait. Even though he is quite irresistible.....awwwww, what a CUTIE!

Groundhog Day

After waking up a little after 11 today, slowly getting out of bed (I'm a slow riser), getting dressed, washing my face and letting Chhaya out.....I got in the truck and drove to get my latte and something to eat for this afternoon (today it's chips and salsa, hot salsa). While driving I was thinking about how my life feels like it's the same every day.....over and over and over again. Then some guy on the radio talked about that he has been plowing snow in Detroit for the last two weeks, putting in 16 hour shifts and he said that he feels like it's groundhog day over and over again for him too. That was a sign to me.....when I think of something and right in that moment of thinking about it, I either see whatever I am thinking about or hear it somewhere. Do you follow my train of thought here? So basically in the movie Groundhog Day (that I haven't seen but it is on my list of need to see movies) a guy gets stuck in a time loop, repeating the same day over and over again. Then when I got home I found out that today is the official Groundhog Day, you know with the groundhog Phil in the funny sounding town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania and how many weeks of winter there is left. I don't think Phil and his shadow would apply to any kind of winter we might have left here in Alaska, or a place like California. I lived in Southern Ca, there is no winter there OK. Last year Phil predicted an early spring and there was snow here until the beginning of May.....I remember I was thinking that summer would never arrive in Kenai.
So basically.....I feel like I'm doing the same things, repeating the same day, OVER and OVER. And I don't like that. I feel fine, happy for the most part but STILL. Is this life? I think this is why some people "spice up" their everyday mundane reality with drinking, drugs and maybe cheating a little, perhaps with the neighbor or some one night stand.....I have a friend that recently took up drinking again, to "take the edge off" that was the explanation. She is an alcoholic and that is the reality of things. I think I would really hate my life if I would drink every day. So I rather feel sorry for myself for an hour or so and then keep going.
You know.....I will get that latte tomorrow again and probably go to the grocery store.
Walk Chhaya. Open up my laptop. Do the dishes. Today? I might spice things up a bit by mixing some olive oil and eggs, put that in my hair. Take a long bath, scrub myself raw, put a clay mask on my face, followed with a honey mask. Supposedly Manuka honey works wonders for the skin, so get that if you want to do something good for your skin. Look it up online to see for yourself.

Oh and it's the Super Bowl Sunday today. I like the coin toss, the national anthem (it even makes me teary eyed), I want to see Bruno Mars sing at halftime (I like Bruno) and perhaps laugh at a fun or cute commercial (it has to have animals in it) and hopefully get a glimpse of the cheerleaders but besides that I have no clue to what the players are doing out on the field.....besides alternating in between running around and laying in a heap on top of each other every ten seconds or so. No, I'm not into watching sports. I'd rather watch the Victoria's Secret annual fashion show. Way more interesting and I love the models.
Do I look like a groundhog in this pic?



My angel. She is taking me on a walk soon. It's sunny out. It's Groundhog Day! :-D



Cornbread And Thoughts

I have been hibernating like a grandma for the last few weeks. Cooking (food, not meth) by following recipes online. Is this going to be my hobby now, cooking? I made a pot of beans yesterday, spicy beans, that puttered on the stove for about five hours......it takes forever to cook beans. I cut up an onion, some garlic, jalapenos and a green pepper and added that to the pot too. Then I made some cornbread, I love cornbread so I attempted to make some for the first time. It turned out gross - I blame it on the recipe. I am of course.....a phenomenal cook already! ;-) So today I found a different recipe for cornbread and it turned out really good. Fresh out of the oven with some butter on top......yum yum.



I just finished watching four episodes of Breaking Bad.....I might start dreaming about Jesse and Walter soon. Besides that, the gym is temporary closed, they are moving.....so I haven't been able to work out and I really want to go and get rid of my excess energy. I'm sure I have gained a few pounds too. I feel extra jiggly. Work has not been on my mind.....but I guess I will go back there.....eventually.

Another thing I have not done for a while is bother with Facebook. It's been since about New Years that I have been on there. But today I did go on because February 1st is my Mom's birthday, so I had to congratulate her on there (of course I called her too). And yesterday it was a friends birthday so I wrote on his page also. I think it is nice to find cute birthday greetings, like flowers, hearts, stars or something funny to put up on a friends Facebook page. Besides that I have been quite turned off by Facebook lately.....or Fakebook as I call it. I'm sure that I am far from the only one that thinks in these terms about it. Some people, not everyone (so don't get offended if you feel targeted).....SOME people are so fake on there, I mean it really is soooo lame. I don't put up much stuff on my Facebook (I have this outlet....the blog....HA!). But I thought it was very interesting when I put up a post about a precious little pitbull puppy that was found badly abused a while back, I put up a pic of her and wrote something in the style of that people that abuse animals are scumbags and horrible......(I can't remember the exact words now). Not a single person liked that or comented.....BUT writing all kinds of dumb bullshit.....putting up a bunch of sayings, proverbs, inspirational quotes and spiritual stuff on there that nobody follows in real life anyways, including the person that puts it up there, putting up pics that don't even look like them or are like ten years old (but pretending it's current) all of that crap generates a bunch of "likes" and/or ass kissing at times. It makes me want to barf. Or people that are so desperate to show off their "love" for each other.....and then they break up shortly afterwards. LOL.
Time to change that relationship status.....again!
It's like high school drama for adults, if you let it be. And I don't want to be like that. I guess I have the blog.....so I can document my life here. Not only the good, fun, pretty and perfect though. The everyday mundane stuff too. Because life is real, this is not Fakebook.
Here is something about Facebook that I found in Adbusters..... ponder that for a minute or two. I am going to return to my bad habits while I lay in bed and wonder if I got chunky or not. What bad habits? Oh, I sometimes chew down all my cuticles and I also obsessively scratch my scalp.....I should put that on the news feed on Facebook and see if it gets any "likes". Oh.....let's not forget how gassy I am after eating spicy beans for two days in a row.....I wonder if that statement would get any "likes"?
