walk away (remember me)

I saw you with your new girl just yesterday
and I feel that I must confess
even though it kills me to have to say
I'll admit that I was impressed
physically just short of perfection
gotta commend you on your selection
though I know I shouldn't be concerned
in the back of my mind I can't help but question

does she rub your feet (when you've had a long day)
does she scratch your scalp (when you take out your braids)
does she know you like to play ps2 till 6 in the morning like I do

I can't explain this feeling
I think about every day
and even though we've moved on
it gets so hard to walk away

maybe I should expand more upon what my last entry said. no, there's nothing wrong. no, I'm not angry at life. things are good. it's just... I was a little surprised/frustrated/I don't know what at some changes that have been happening. and to be honest, they're good changes. I wasn't so sure about that at first, though. but it's good. 'nuff said.

in the last week, I started my new job (which is awesome, btw). I successfully turned in the paperwork I needed to defer enrollment for the semester, so everything is legit now and I'm not just dropping out. I went to a floral design class (muy bueno) and had fun. I signed up for another craft class (more about that later). another couple of things changed and I have finally gotten some answers to questions I've had. I don't know that I should divulge that information quite yet so it will be forthcoming depending on how I choose to use that information.

I joined a dinner group that starts this week and includes 8 people, for whom I will be able to showcase my domestic skills. and I'm looking forward to doing some "networking." take that as you will.

and last night I had the opportunity to showcase my innate virtues of ingenuity, wit, and domesticness.




in other words, it was a lot of fun... and a success. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I hope everyone else did as well. there were a few people absent whom I had hoped would be there. we all missed them but I'm sure we'll do it again and hopefully they'll be able to come.

my recipe for crepes is as follows:

4 cups milk
4 eggs
1/4 cup oil or melted butter (butter is better)
3 cups flour
2 tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt.

combine moist ingredients in a bowl. combine dry ingredients in another bowl. slowly beat dry ingredients into moist ingredients. cook on a pan. the stove should be on medium.

some good things to put in the crepes: strawberries (or other berries), whipped cream, bananas, nutella, peanut butter, yogurt, sugar & lemon juice, cinnamon sugar. don't put them all in one crepe because that would be gross.
