Another Painless Finger Injury...

Remember an earlier posting about a Crockpot incident, in which I received a nasty gash to the knuckle that bled copious amounts of blood and other fluids, and incidentally I felt no pain? Remember how weirded out I was?

Yeah, me too.

So the other day, I (very stupidly) put my entire finger tip on a burning pan.  I knew I had burned myself, and initially it hurt a little bit, but I quickly ran my finger under water and put a little Miracell on it and put a bandaid on so it wouldn't rub up against things, because I figured it would hurt.  Maybe it was the Miracell (it really is wonderful stuff, heals up anything with practically no scarring) that made it painless, or maybe it was something else, I just don't know! But either way, burns usually hurt quite a bit, and this one just... didn't.

In other news, I have yet to recover from this nasty cold/allergies/flu thing I got going on.  Is it just me, or is everyone getting sick?

In yet other news, I have had this TERRIBLE TERRIBLE urge to cut my hair... like CHOP my hair, and I know as soon as I did it, not only would I regret it and be angry with  myself, but just about every member of my family would be angry with me as well.  This is the longest my hair has ever been, and I really do love it, I was just getting really tired of it, and wanted a change.  So instead of cutting my hair, I cut some bangs.

Not my favorite picture, but you get the idea.

Also, the only other time I had bangs was in the fifth grade... and I look the same.

Newfound Addiction...

Green Smoothies.

That's all I have to say.

some of my fun adventures of 2010 so far

One day I decided I'd do a puzzle.  Ok so maybe it was a Christmas puzzle, and this was in January or February... but still!

One day, we went sledding, twas very fun.  

My gorgeous sister

My gorgeous mom

best friends since we were 12

we haven't changed much.

My black baby.

And so that ends one of our epic adventures.  More to come.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!!!

Go Irish!!!!

Well, I have to admit, that I'm very proud of my Irish heritage.  Yes, on me mother's side.  Saint Patrick's Day happens to be one of my favorite holidays.

I, for one, went to sleep with Christmas socks on, which happened to have several green presents on them.  I even ate from a green bowl this morning.  Don't worry, I changed into some green garb as soon as I woke up.  Yes indeed, I'm decked out in green today, and I can't wait to get started on my Irish feast tonight!!

On the menu:

Irish soda bread, Colcannon, Cabbage and Sour cream, and who knows what else I'll be inclined to whip up! Shepherd's pie, stew, boxty, the possibilities are deliciously endless.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day everyone!!!

Happy Birthday Erik!!

Here's an awesome poem that I wrote for my brother for his 23 birthday today!!



Happy Birthday Erik Donaldson!!


!It's rhymin' time.



Happy Birthday to my E-Y, and if it's ok with you,

I have some things I'd like to say, in a rhyme stanza... or two.

On this your day of birth, my friend, I think it may be wise,

to make sure that you eat your dinner before devouring pies.

You're now a year older than you ever were before

,and for every year you age you get to snore a little more.

I've never been your age, you see, so I haven't much advice,

so instead I'll tell you all the things about you that are nice.

Your crispy hair, your furry arms, the way your elbows bend

,your left ear lobe, your buddha globe, your third toe from the end,

your smoothy chin, your ankles thin, your knuckles and your nose,

the way you play your cello looks just like you strike a pose,

Oh, Erik, I could write a list that's seven miles long,

but by that time I'd have to write another poem song,

And so I think I'll be wise and I'll stop while you're around,

I hope your day's the best, and it's as happy as it sounds!



Love you brotha,



Love, Miki
