Another pretty good day. At this rate I might implode from being OK, although my shoulders are starting to spasm so situation normal, all fucked up--almost.

David went to buy catfood before I woke up and brought me a blueberry scone and a latte. Best. Husband. Ever. We were out of milk and food for me too so this was key.

We went to a mall in NJ today and although that was like the fourth level of hell we survived. All the way there I chattered at him about the novel, which helps me solidify ideas and suss out problems. He is so awesome. We went to NJ so David could check on some stuff at work, and so he could buy an iPhone (which is why we were in the damn mall.) I live in cities so I never have to go to malls ever. And it was a pretty ghetto mall. Then I sat in a Sheraton and read more "My Life in Paris" while sipping coffee and Bailey's. I had a nice leather arm chair and it would have been completely wonderful except for two things. I was in a Sheraton in NJ, and they were absolutely blasting The Eagles. I am not a fan, but if I never hear Hotel California again I will be totally cool.

Also cool? The iPhone. I covet it. As per all apple products the packaging is made of win. I still have my iPod mini cube box because I love it.

On the way home we tried to buy a new printer but we got to the store 6 minutes too late. In retrospect today was kind of very weird, but I enjoyed it anyway.

My God I love Julia Child more than ever. They tied a Brussel sprout to a string for their cat to play with in their delightfully bizarre Paris apartment. It is an incredible love story. Julia and cooking, but really Julia and her husband, Paul Child. I'm kind of in love with him now too. God, just read the book if you haven't. I swear if you don't love it I will bake and mail you brownies.*

*Any and all demands for brownies must be accompanied by specific reasons, in writing, that you failed to love "My Life in Paris," with quotations from said book. If it turns out you merely have no soul my offer of brownies is null and void. And if you can't appreciate stories about the perfect sole meuniere and cats who play with vegetables tied to strings I am not sure I want to know about it!

IPHONE. YES. I used to save all my apple boxes. They are so shiny. Still working on finding a use for them.

That book sounds great! I will have to try to get a hold of it somehow. I like France. And food and love.

I bet we could encase them in lucite and make shelves of wall hangings out of them? :/

You can probably get the book from the library. It isn't brand new. :D And it is out in paperback. I so highly rec it.

That's wonderful news! I'm so glad that you are excited about the novel and that you two feel better.

Two days is a good trend! I want to read that book now too. And I kind of covet an iPhone but I don't really need one.

I don't need one either and I can't afford it. David can because work pays for part of the phone and all of the service. :D

They certainly are shiny though! I can't afford one either. Lucky David. :)

I just had a brie quesadilla. Very yummy.

ohhh that sounds good! and kind of deadly. We had brie with honey and cracked pepper on Friday. so good.

Yeah, David deserves something shiny since he hasn't had a day off since August.

I made a quesadilla with mango and brie one time. It was the best thing ever :)

My favorite quesadilla ever is the one with lobster.

Holy crap, were we in the same mall together on the same day and did not see each other? Woe.

You know I don't even know what Mall we were in. It had a Home Depot and a BJs and a Target and then an actual Mall with normal mall stores. An IMAX theatre and a Legal Seafoods. I feel really dumb that I have no idea where we were, but I was reading aloud from "My life in Paris."

You must have been in Jersey City, then, because the only other IMAX theater in the state is in Atlantic City. Not where I was. Ah well.

That would have been so funny if I had turned around in the apple store and been like hello there cedar! :D
