Once more into the breach, dear friends.

I love this blog, you dig? It makes me sad when I go for long periods of time without updating, makes me feel awkward and tongue-tied in a way that usually only happens when I'm confronted with real live people. And God, I have no intention of letting my own ineptitude turn this into yet another place where I feel overwhelmingly, teeth-grindingly silenced.

With that in mind, I'm going to make another attempt getting back into a semi-regular groove, and since I mean to post, and since I've always meant to start posting photos more often in spite of my nonexistent skillz as a photo-type-thing-taking person, I figure that I'll combine the two things for now. I think what's gonna happen here is that when the urge strikes me (and also, let's be realistic about my recent posting history, when it doesn't), I'm going to post a photo of a little piece of my life and then maybe talk about it. I hope I'll talk about it.

We'll just see how far this gets us, shall we?

I picked these up a couple of weeks ago at a local pottery show, and I am deeply in love with them. They're by an Athens-based artist named Crisha Yantis. I loved everything she had on display, and wish I could've bought one of her bigger works, but I'm quite happy with my little plate and bowl.

Oh I'm so glad to hear you are doing well with WW. I have basically got stuck after 50, but I've been maintaining that for six months now at least. I think I'm going to rest here a while before I plunge back into the program. My February attempt at living on 21 points was not pretty.

And yeah, there is something about Fritos. Nothing can substitute for them. I could probably just suck on salt tablets and get nearly the same effect, but echt Fritos have a real siren song, especially the BBQ kind.

I did get to enjoy the spring flowers when I was down there, and now I'm getting some of them again up here. It's nice to get double spring! I will happily accept any and all flowers. Now if only I could get some summer tomatoes. I have been getting good corn, at least.

Yeah, I'm kind of stuck at 50 too. I think I've started losing again this week, but that just means that after the Frito binge, I'll break even one more time.

God, Fritos, don't even get me started, I have one and the next thing you know I'm passed out on the floor with honey barbecue crumbs scattered all around, they're slapping me in junk food rehab, I'm hanging out at the Frito House on the corner. My favorite flavor is the honey bbq twists, but I'll eat any flavor and like it.
