we're winding down

me and the boy made peanut butter cookies today. he had the best time wiht it. cracks me up. so i put two cookies and a bunch of apple slices on a plate for him. he ate all the apple slices first. i didn't say a word to him about it. how frickin cute is taht?

emily is coming thursday to do our front bedroom which means i have to clean out that room. aigh. i really want to be doing . . . um . . nothing.

i have to look into having our house painted too. this winter has done a number on the house. after the last storm i hung out my window and beat the ice off the side of the house. god, i hate winter.

so a long time ago in god's taint (you will remember gentle reader that is my phrase for KC, MO) i had a weird unbidden vision of a hindu goddess that i never did identify until a few weeks ago as durga. the mother goddess. so i was looking at various pictures of her. in some she has a pierced nose. so that sent me to look up the history of nose piercing. i remember when i pierced mine i had a feeling like 'that belonged there all along' i didn't have the same feeling withmy navel ring. though i love my navel ring. anyway, first of all as i typed into google "history of nose piercing" one of the options that popped up was 'history of nose picking'. say what? yep. with 315k links. one of which enlightened me to the fact that there is an actual name for compulsive nose picking. but i WAY SO MUCH digress - back to the piercing. in india, nose piercing is thought to make child birth easier. weird huh?

so the new PT starts tomorrow. the stretches have already been kicking my ass but i actually think they might already be working. which is surprising. course, doing the exercises every day is probably helpful.

earth is the only planet not name after a pagan god. why do you suppose that is?

damn right i'm impure - i'm as impure as the driven yellow snow.
