friday!

This morning I went to a fabric sale at Berkeley designer Erica Tanov's studio.  I went with the BFF4life pair, they bought a ton of fabric there and I found two things that I like and only bought three to four yards of each.  Most of the stuff there was pretty cute but really not part of my idea of my senior collection.  What is my idea for my senior collection?  I don’t know really.  I have been tossing around a few ideas; one of my most recent is mixing aspects of 60's mod with Victorian and making it edgy yet feminine.  You follow?  It’s okay.

After the fabric sale we had breakfast at cafe fanny.  After my tiny, pre-packaged sandwich with 3 tiny pickles and my iced tea that tasted like an air freshener, I was very unsatisfied.  For 11.95 I should have at least gotten a side with my sandwich.  I should have ordered the croque monsieur.

So right next door to this aptly named cafe is an Acme Breads bakery and they sell freshly baked bread right out of the back door.  So I bought a sour loaf and an herb slab.  Say herb slab, right now.  Feels awesome ya?  Say it again and again and again!  Hilarity ensues!  Anyways the bread is so delicious, I’m loving it.

Big shocker of the day.  I went to the gym.  And I walked a mile and a half to get there!  Take that!  I worked out my arms and did some squats.  It’s so intimidating to be there, and I feel like everyone is looking at me!  It was a nice gym and it felt okay to work out, it wasn’t satisfying or anything, but it was nice.  It was fun to do an activity with matt that we haven’t done in forever.  He and I used to go all the time.  On my 20th birthday I ran 2 miles in 20 minutes.  I used to be in good shape but I weighed about the same as I do now.  That was before we knew about my thyroid disorder.  My weight has finally plateaued; I haven’t gained or lost weight in about a year and a half so I think now if I really tried with exercise (I refuse to diet) I could start getting down to a healthier happier weight.   Exercising just takes a lot of time, and time is what I am at a loss of after august.

Topic of the day:
What are your dreams like? Are they in 1st person? Are they cohesive stories with a plot? Are they random?
    I have blogged about my dreams before.  Most of them are a bizarre mixture of my real life with symbolic representations of my fears and hopes.  They are always in first person and kind of flit around from scenario to scenario.  In my dreams I realize it is a dream but most of the time I am struggling for control of them.  Ha!  Very similar to my real life!

Have a fantastic day everyone, I think I’m going to unplug for the night and do some analog activities, like read....
