Let’s catch up, shall we?
Good morning! It’s been a while, yeah? Sorry for that. Wanna catch up?
Grab yourself a cup of coffee!
We got a French press lately, and I am loving it. It’s not something I have time for on weekday mornings, but boy do I enjoy my Saturday coffee. Josh digs it, too. This morning it’s Larry’s Beans Cowboy Blend. I made it a little strong, but I’ll survive.
So life! Right? I’ve been hard at work at my new job — early mornings and close to regular hours took some getting used to, but I’m loving it so far. I am a little concerned over how out of control my coffee habit is getting…I’ve started switching to tea after noon in an effort to wean myself off of the sweet, sweet java.
I’ve decided something. Before July 17, 2010, I want to take a class in / start learning American Sign Language. It’s been something I’ve wanted to do for years, and I’ve decided that this is the year to start. It’s a long shot, but do any of you have resources to recommend?
As you may have noticed, the try it diet sort of…died. It was a quiet death — definitely more a whimper than a bang. It died in Auburn, AL at a restaurant called “Cock of the Walk.” It was done in by fried catfish, fried pickles, cornbread, and the death blow came from warm, gooey blackberry cobbler. I’m not ashamed — I think I got a little too ambitious. I am still on a quest for more natural, healthy foods, and I still want to start COOKING more. But I’m not going to saddle myself with a bunch of rules. Personally, I’m most inclined toward Michael Pollan’s simple three: Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.
So! How have YOU been? What did I miss? Fill me in!
