ok, i have some temporary residency and a computer from where i can finally check SG and post more often. i see i've lost out on the PSW group, need to see where else i should reapply.

On the plus side, I've been making my own food!!! Ive missed having an oven!!! I've made my own bread and this week will try to make a cracked pepper bread/ we've been making our own ice cream! right now in the fridge i have peach vanilla, chocolate banana with banana chunks, and black cherry with dark chocolate pieces. NOM! Last but not least, I've made my own cheese! and its easy as hell! From a gallon of milk, and about 3-4 hrs (most of it waiting time), I can make just over a pound of fresh mozzarella and about a 1/2C of ricotta. fresh cheese is the best. i smear both on french rolls with some garlic and butter, and have the best garlic bread ever.

hugs to buds

sorry if it appears that i haven't been active on here. i dont really have a place to stay right now and have been jumping from couch to couch and computer to computer. will try to update and catch up tonight

We're listed on iTunes, Zune, and Podcast Alley and you can check out the show at www.top5podcast.com. you can even leave voicemail comments at 72-SHESAID-2.

ive never been so excited to be sleepy at 2am. i havent been able to sleep earlier than 6am most nights (mornings, really) even if this stretches out for a cpl hours that will be awesome to hopefully wake up before noon

not hating on the vegans, but this did crack me up


i threw some chicken breasts in the crockpot with some seasoning and cooked for 14 hrs. juicy and delicious. will be the last meat i eat for a while.

felt bad that people were feeling sorry for my cold, well the cold is gone. some minor congestion but that is likely allergies. hurrah!

got my first paid podcasting gig. i will be editing down episodes of the Free Beer Podcast (www.vivalaballcam.com) weekly for cash. I usually appear as a guest on their show Friday nights for fun drinking games. i will also be making an appearance on the Trivial Trivia podcast (www.trivialtriviapodcast.com) in a few days to guest on their show. Trivia rounds include U.S. Presidents, Disney Music, and the movie "A Few Good Men". I also may be doing a music segment for an abbreviated version of their show. On top of doing my show, which I have to finishing editing today (www.top5podcast.com), I should have another Chain of Fools show coming soon (http://felicemedia.com/chainoffoolsblog/) and I may get to do a guest segment on Podquiz (www.podquiz.com). This is too much fun.

Anxiety is a motherfucker. I think I lost a friend because of it.

I need to somehow get together $120. if i can get that, I can make 20 gallons of beer per month and sell it to pay the rent. 22oz bottles for $5 or fill up 2-liters for immediate consumption for $13. crossing fingers.

im influenced by NessieOutlaw's recent feat of getting shit done in a day. going to do some laundry, some cleaning, some editing of my show, and maybe get a 15-30 second promo clip started so i can advertise more.

i'm back online! ok my internet was down for quite sometime but im back. message me if you missed me...or even if you didn't; i'll still read it. now to go collapse and nap because i have a cold

My anxiety sure is kicking up a lot. Last week when i was on the other side of the block on my walk, i almost had a meltdown. i got light headed and my heart skipped a beat because i suddenly felt sooo far from my house. today i felt that i was trapped in my house because of this stupid storm. more because i could not see the sky. im letting my brain fuck me up.

but im riding it out, playing DS (Zeldahantom Hourglass), watching Cricket on ESPN360.com (currently India vs Sri Lanka; when do i get to see the Aussies play?), and hoping to catch a buzz tonight.

btw, how amazing does Annalee look in her new set?

i got HAMMERED last night. shared 4 bottles of wine and a 24-pack of Newcastle. must ask Bryce or Brian what happened because I ended up passing out somewhat early.

So I got the roommates to pay for a batch of strong, fizzy, yellow, bland homebrew. problem is i'm out of propane so i dont know if i can boil it. our stove is frikken weak so im not sure if it will take 7 gallons to a boil. dont even know if i'll make it to the first official Homebrew meeting for 2010...and I'm the frikken president.

despite my troubles, im still enjoying the single life. soooo not ready to date until i get my anxiety under control but I am considering sexual prospects. i had an invigorating fling with the ex a couple nights ago. just gave my battery a nice recharge

keep having the gnarliest dreams. Friends shooting horse-crap cannons, police serving dinners paired with alcohol, my friend's mom saying she wants to be a guy, my ex saying she cant sleep because she misses me and my lemonade stand, and last night the dream where my teeth started falling out and the 4th on revealed a hair clip that was left in my jaw for some reason by an unknowing dentist. no drugs, i swear!

now to make something to eat to make this headache go away. ooooh Diet 7-Up, come here!

so today we started kegging beer for the first time. it is unbelievable how much easier it is to keg beer than it is to bottle it. no stress, no doing so much sanitizing and washing ahead of time. just dump beer and go. I put the Chocolate Stout in the keg today and off to the fridge. some time in the next couple of days i will add the mint flavoring that will complete the recipe. It is a recipe from our Homebrew Club last month; this month we are brewing a Scottish 80. After tasting a delicious light Rye beer at Main St. Brewery, im so ready to brew some sessionable beers for spring.
