i don't keep promises to myself

i'm trying to either learn to accept that, or just stop doing it. i DIDN'T see "the scottish play". instead i worked, played games with toren and then hung out with ian. it was fun to hang out with toren. i haven't really done anything with him in a few weeks. knitting in the buff doesn't even count as hanging out anymore. so, i will connect with people outside of it.

oh, and i ate beef for the first time in 8-10 years. but if we include that time we were at taco bell in baton rouge and they gave me a beef burrito instead of a bean one, it would be twice. in my defense: at taco bell, i didn't swallow, i knew with the first bite it was animal product.

i found decent dansak (after calling a few places and them not knowing what the h i was talking about). but next time i should make it TOTALLY clear that the only meat i would like in chicken dansak is chicken. i ate a piece of the meat and thought i was eating weird chicken... i had decided not to eat any more of the meat when ian said: this is beef. i knew he was right. i just wish he wasn't or that he wouldn't have said anything. but now's as good a time as any to start eating beef again... so that when we're in south america i will have some kind of immunity. my biggest hurdle is that i don't actually like beef. it's gross.

in other news: today's the baking extravaganza. i hope i have all of the ingredients. it's kinda hard to plan for multiple things to bake in one day especially if you're hungry at the grocery store... so hungry that in the last three times you've been you've forgotten to buy cereal.

there may be a big dinner at my house this weekend... probably sunday. my mom's coming and we're going to make dampfkneudels, bread and cinnamon buns. if you want free dinner, let me know.
