it's official-- i love TBJ. 

:+:

three more people RSVP'd to the writing workshop i'm hosting on saturday afternoon, in sin's beloved Dupont. 

obviously i need to do a better job of convincing deepa and jtmoney that they should come.  writing well is a key skill for lawyers, ladies. ;)

how did a week flyyyyyyyyyy by?  and why didn't i get to make rosemary-garlic, roasted red potato bliss?  my bougie, over-priced, whole foods ingredients rot slowly in the fridge.  this makes me cringe.  i love my job, but i miss cooking.  didn't realise i was having so much fun with it...though upon reflection, it was a fantastic creative outlet.

weekends are saturated, too. 

• kahani/writing on saturday
• baby shower on sunday...
• then next weekend, i'm in NYC! 

every few hours, i've taken to shaking my head as if to clear some mental etch-a-sketch.  as the grey matter whirls hypnotic, life embroiders my reality silently while i ignore such developments. i'm so in my dome.  there is snow on the ground, with flowers poking through.  the sky was so bright today that i had to dig out the big guns (read: chanel).  the pound cake i just tasted reminded me of the pound cake i craved as a five-year old. 

in that final, critical moment before each opportunity is lost, i feel my eyes widen and my head clear for a nanosecond, as i immerse in what is.  and that's why i can write about it now, vs stepping over it, ignoring it or mindlessly chewing it...every day, i get closer to getting that crucial skill right.

you know, i didn't get to see last nights but i ended up tio'ing it...i love the concept though...i remember over the summer fox tried something like this (i think it was called "jury" or something...i don't remember it got cancelled) and it was amazing...you got to see how the jurors deliberated and through that deliberation you learned all about the case, and then at the end of the show when they give their verdict you get to see what really happened...i thought it was an awesome show...is this kinda like that???

Anna's pound cake = Proust's madeleines.
