woo hoo

taxes are done and we're getting money back! of course, we've already spent it on house projects, but still--new interior doors will be nice.

v-day eve

this will be my 13th valentine's day with mike, and considering our less than traditional beginnings, i'm so glad we hit the 13-year mark. longest relationship i've ever had, except for family (and that's not by choice).

i have also recently reconnected with a few fellow high school survivors, which i'm very happy about. one in particular seems to be the start of a rekindled friendship. yay!

popular opinion

before resigning as a dvd reviewer at dvdtalk.com, i sent an email to the owner stating (in part) the following:

"Somewhere along the way on DVD Talk, it think the purpose of reviews got lost, as they are opinion and therefore subjective. Well, I always knew I wasn’t a follower, and this proved it! I tend to be the opposite of mainstream, but I don’t think that’s what your readers want to hear."

to me, a review is an opinion. if people are basing everyday decisions, including what to eat, watch and listen to, based soley on other people's opinions, i say GET A LIFE!

10 oz. + two spoonfuls = YUM!

the. best. stuff. evah!

so much for the diet, though, as i can hardly limit myself to one cup a day, now can i?
