I remember when Becca used to do lists like this, like the dude in Catch-22. Let's see...
Black Eyes
-I've been too scared so far to take my Secret Zombie Plan out of the planning stages and into the Making-It-Reality stages. That's pretty lame.
-I'm about to go make some pies for Gramma's birthday but I'm scared of making pie crust because what if I over mix it and it doesn't turn out light and flaky?? But I have to do it anyway cuz Mom's at school...yeah I think this list is going to consist of me being a sissy about things that I need to just man up about. Get ready.
-. . . so I guess really it's a good thing that I can't think of more things to put on the Black Eyes list, right? So let's move on.
Feathers in my Cap
-just woke up from a weird dream where I was on a study abroad sort of thing where I was being housed temporarily with this older guy named Gunter, and he was pretty cool. Except then the whole thing morphed into a medieval battlefield and he was fighting on the other side, the jerk. And then there was a time lapse and he was an old man in a bar and one of my apparent friends from the weird-a study abroad was confronting him for his war atrocities. My subconscious was all about the international relations and social justice last night I guess. But, any dream I have that doesn't end with me being cornered by zombies or eaten by giant worm beasts I consider a WIN, so take THAT subconscious motivata'!
-right now I am listening to a whole playlist of songs recommended to me by the inestimable Lori Fuller, so that is obvs pure delight.
-My bookbinding friend from Colorado called last night and we had a funtimes chat and I get to stop feeling guilty for not calling her like months ago.
-I'm about to go into Kindergarten for a good ol' fashioned spider-themed Station Day; Kindergarten is the one place where I get to lay down the law and correct social injustice and STILL have everyone concerned treat me like a rock star. I suggest that all within the sound of my voice invest in a group of adoring five year olds, your self esteem will thank you.
-It is straight up cloudy today; maybe we will get to start having autumnal fun times. I've already been going full blog-mom in my enthusiasm for clusters of decorative gourds.
-My friend Kat consented to be my TV-watching-friend, so now I get to watch all my TV without feeling like a waste of space because hello it is a SOCIAL EVENT. AWESOME.

I'm so glad you're blogging again. Also, you should read the link to McSweeney's about Gourds from last weeks fugs and pieces. I mean, I shouldn't reccomend it. Because it's terrible. But...awesome.
Haha, I totally read that! I was super tempted to link to it when I said that but um...yeah, you know. The fact that you read my blog is flattering beyond all reason.
and the pie crust WAS flaky and light--and beautiful with all those cute little leaves around the edges....
