kitchen tip: throw out the lima beans! replace your Kitchen Aid with a Bosch, keep Ruth Reichl's "The Gourmet Cookbook" close by
life lesson: Careful attention to direction is the only way to reach a destination (without freaking out!) (My sister, Emily, actually said to me once, "It's the direction that matters." I've thought about that a lot and it's helped me when times are hard to make small steps toward reaching my goals.) Also, as cliche as it's become, "Don't sweat the small stuff; and it's all small stuff." Seriously.

I'm so glad you did this, I was worried you weren't going to. bubble baths are such a good one - the bath just isn't the same without the bubbles. I like what not to wear too - I want all of stacy's clothes! you and I differ so much on movies and books I love to hear what you like. I've never seen pride & prejudice, but the book just about bored me to sleep every night...don't worry my insomnia won out and I read the whole thing though. plus now I can say I read it right? =)
That is impressive Tonya! I don't know if I would have finished it if I were that bored. It was a childhood favorite. I think Mr. Darcy was my little girl "man of my dreams." Maybe I just like Colin Firth. ;) Childhood favorites don't die.
I see - just like my Anne of Green Gables (which justin makes fun of me relentlessly for) Whenever I was sick or sad as a kid I would watch the pbs marathons (they were on all the time) and I would just get lost in her world. It doesn't do the same thing for me now (I tried last night). maybe life has tainted me too much that I relate to darker movies now? whatever works right =)
bytheway - you'll do just about anything to keep occupied with insomnia, (which does not include watching crappy tv) - even read P&P =) just kidding, I've read worse, I just thought it was predictable - I like writers who can suprise me.
