My etsy shop is having a sale. You too can own a cute owl painting or some vintage jewelry or pick up some wicked cheap art supplies. Just sayin'.
(The owl clicks to my etsy!)
Off to a big group dinner - so far, still feeling pretty good (besides sick). I'm excited to start writing my Christmas cards and making Christmas gifts and getting my papers done. To be honest, I'm actually really, really excited for classes to be over. I'm going to spend January and February just RELAXING. And making art. And working my jobs. But come March and April I'm going to HARDCORE find a real job (but I'm so excited my shorter-term jobs seem to be working out well).
*sigh* I'm so frustrated. It's hard to let go of hurt, to ignore little slights, and to stop caring so damn much.
I need to teach myself to judge. To get angry, to protect myself, and to cut bad, hurtful people out of my life. Sometimes, you don't deserve another chance. Sometimes the circumstances and reasons don't matter enough. I am SO sick of being hurt.
I'm going to surround myself with people who make me happy. I'm gonna work to make others happy too, and if they hurt me, then that privilege (because it really is a privilege, and not their right to take from me) has to be revoked.
I must record the epic dinner of epicness I just made. Because it was epic. And some day I may want to eat something this epic again.
Rew's Scrambled Eggs of Epicness
2 eggs 2-3 tablespoons olive oil 1 small onion, diced small 1 tablespoon (pinch?) sandwich toppers roasted red peppers 1 small tomato, diced small some cooked broccoli (2 tablespoons?) 1 tablespoon soy sauce sea salt pepper garlic powder curry powder (optional) 2 tablespoons milk butter an English muffin Mexican shredded cheese (eyeball it, super cheesy or not is up to you!)
Cook the onions in the olive oil until soft, medium heat. Add red peppers, tomato, broccoli, salt, soy sauce, garlic powder, pepper, and a TINY bit of curry powder for kick. Cook these on medium until the liquids are mostly gone and you have a slightly paste-like veggie mush of nommy goodness.
In a bowl, beat the eggs with the milk and season with salt/pepper to taste. Those on top of veggie paste in pan and mix. Lower heat a bit, cook as you would normal scrambled eggs. While that cooks, toast up an English muffin! And butter it. After toasting to avoid an electrical fire.
When eggs are nearly ready (they must still be moist, stir often!) throw on the cheese. Give it a minute, and scoop the whole cheesy, steamy mess onto your waiting English muffin halves. Eat with hands and fork until gone. NOM. Amazing what you can create when there's nothing but scraps in the fridge and you're starving to death :)
How can you say that your truth is better than ours? Shoulder to shoulder, now brother, we carry no arms The blind man sleeps in the doorway, his home If only I had an enemy bigger than my apathy I could have won
But I gave you all
Close my eyes for a while Force from the world a patient smile
Can you lie next to her And give her your heart, your heart As well as your body And can you lie next to her And confess your love, your love As well as your folly And can you kneel before the king And say I’m clean, I’m clean
But tell me now, where was my fault In loving you with my whole heart Oh tell me now, where was my fault In loving you with my whole heart
A white blank page and a swelling rage, rage You did not think when you sent me to the brink, to the brink You desired my attention but denied my affections, my affections
So tell me now, where was my fault In loving you with my whole heart Oh tell me now, where was my fault In loving you with my whole heart
Aah, aah... Lead me to the truth and I will follow you with my whole lie Lead me to the truth and I will follow you with my whole lie Aah, aah...
