I'm with Rachel and Sally. Katie, you're sweet and wonderful and I love you. And I'm going to officially change my name to Alcie, thanks to your post (Rachel's idea )
My body doesn't know what to do with American food. I haven't had high fructose corn syrup (or at least large amounts of it) for a good 4 months. Now I'm in a veritable flood of HFoCS and cookies. Granted, I'm the one making the cookies. BUT STILL. I can feel my stomach processing the Chinese food I had this afternoon.
The thing I found sort of interesting was an interview I heard a little while ago. Someone was talking about how the EU has banned a certain type of chemical that has found to have adverse health effects for humans. This chemical is often found in plastics to make the more malleable: kid's toys, dashboards, etc. The US, however, has failed to ban this chemical. One possible reason is that the US doesn't have solicalized health care. This means that, when people get sick later, THEY will be paying, versus in the EU where the government will have to pay for most of the sicks' bills.
rach. i'm an awful sissie in law... i was sleeping for, most of the day, in preparation for my 7pm-5:30am shift at American eagle... I promise I will get back to you SOON!

7p-5:30a? I'd sleep all day too. You are not an awful Sissie-in-law and I shant hear another word of it.
I've decided that, no matter what pets I get, they will always be named after things I mispronounce. First will be a cat called Tuchis (I always pronounced it "tooshes").
I'm learning to skate on hockey skates (I learned and have been skating on figure skates since I was a wee girl). They make me feel bad-ass! I just have to be sure not to body check some small child.
i got drum sticks from my sister and now i really want to play but have no idea how and will be sooo soooo sad when I realize that I'm not a perfect drummer from the very beginning...haha, my friend predicted that I'll lose control of the sticks and hit myself on the head... we'll see (in the what a dork thread...)---
So my Diana Ross diva dentist travel life-style has gotten the better of the inside of my car. For awhile, my car smelled like bananas, and it drove me crazy cause I know I haven't bought any bananas in awhile. Perhaps it was the oatmeal I'm carrying around? Well, that smell went away. Safeway grocery makes this delightful mint coffee that is only available at this time of year, so of course, I bought in bulk. There's this store in downtown Flagstaff that makes they're own soap. You point to witch soap you want and they slice off a piece for you. I was so intrigued that I bought in bulk. Now my car has a very mystic smell of mint coffee mixed with savory herbs jasmine, lavender, and spice. Ooo, it's so psychadelic. In fact, it's so psychadelic that sitting in the car for too long gets me high lama lama
BTW, mayo, I wanna play drums to!!! I am channeling Ringo Starr your way. Or better yet Charlie Watts (drummer for the Rolling Stones and one of the most underated drummers in showbiz)
oh yay, tattoos are great! I'm too scared to get one done and then i wouldn't know what kind of tattoo i wanted...
And drums... well, for the last two days i've been "practising" on everything.I have no idea how to play, but it's so fun to hit everything with those drum sticks....haha
I found two board games today: The Kevin Bacon game (actually, it was called "The 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon") and Kojak the Boardgame Both were still wrapped in their original packaging. Does no one want these treasures? Bookman's, you are a used bookstore that truly rocks.
The local radio station is playing 103 albums from start to finish, "The Greated Alternative Albums of All Time." For this station, that means mostly grungy 90s bands. Bleh, now I remember why I turned to 60s music as a kid. But it's fun hearing these old 90s albums and looking at it with a new perspective.
I'm learning to skate on hockey skates (I learned and have been skating on figure skates since I was a wee girl). They make me feel bad-ass! I just have to be sure not to body check some small child.
Is it that different? I've always used hockey skates...what if someday...I have to go on a romantic skating date and I wear figure skates to seem dainty..and then fall on my ass......what if, Amy!??
Never fear! Figure skates are sturdier. Since they have a longer back and the front toe, they require less balancing while skating. If you lean too far forward or too far back in hockey skates, you can fall on your ass. Not so with figure skates!
They might feel a bit awkward at first, but you'll be a champion, I'm sure!

most of my friends either aren't doing anything, or they're not answering their phones.
we wanted to go into Boston, for First Night, but that didn't exactly work.
