another gift

pillow.jpg i came home this evening to find a happy present lying on the floor of my apartment. it was… a squishy, blue, marshmallow-shaped, mush of a pillow! i’m not sure what i’ll do with it yet, but i imagine it might come in handy for napping on those oh-so-uncomfortable chairs at school. it should be also good for:

� throwing at ryan to get his attention
� smooshing when i’m stressed
� talking to when i’m lonely (i shant name it wilson)
� playing hackysack with
� hanging as an ornament on my non-existant xmas tree
� cooling my forehead (after sticking it in the freezer)
� beating when i’m angry
� entertaining guests with its amazing gel-like quality
� sitting on during those long car rides
� playing indoor soccer on those rainy days

…thanks annie!

christmas eve

Wednesday, December 24th, 2003 at about 7:05 pm

even snowmen love burritos i just came home from a 2.5 hour drive from ryan’s house in san diego… in the rain. ryan and i drove up there the night before for a happy pre-christmas dinner and present-opening celebration. he’ll be leaving for michigan tomorrow morning to visit his aunt– and won’t be back until after new year’s day. in the meantime, i’ll be running home to simi for christmas and cleaning house… and fighting the urge to rip open ryan’s new george foreman grill and warm some buns. his family gives the strangest gifts.

while in sd today, ryan took me to sombrero’s– that pseudo-famous mexican food hole-in-the-wall that people from san diego always talk about. the food was good– but not quite impressive, since i, too, live in the land of cheap mexican food. it all tastes the same to me. the cool thing about the joint was that they had an array of filled churros. ryan and i opted for the one that looked mashed-potato filled. turns out that it was just sweet cream. i think they overcooked it. still, it was good and crunchy and all sorts of messy with the sugar falling off everywhere. of course, i’m now on the hunt for a chocolate filled one.
