I've Got High Hopes

Another new year, another attempt at consistent blog posts. :)

Since last we spoke not a lot has changed. I'm still working at the television studio and plan to start hunting for a new job come April.

I spent a ton of money last year on a variety of things (e.g., adult furniture, framing new artwork, Kickstarter project, and a ton of holiday gifts) and it's high time I get back on a budget. Moreso as I'm toying with the idea of finally doing another Europe trip this year, depending on how the job situation works out. Currently I'm looking at Switzerland, Austria, and Germany.

The new year started off with a lot of rain for California, which also brought what so far has been almost a week-long bout of some sort of throat thing. I've already dropped two sick days on it but hope to be back on my feet by tomorrow. On the upside, I've already watched the first two Harry Potter films and will likely get through two more today.

What stalks me at night
Which leads to yelling at air
When I’m fast asleep?

------------------------

So my roommate informed me today via email that I was apparently talking and yelling in my sleep so much he had to come in repeatedly to check on me. I remember nothing. And this is hardly a common occurrence for me. I remember my parents telling me as a kid that I used to talk in my sleep the first few nights we'd spend at the cottage in Maine during the summer, but I have no knowledge of getting so worked up that I yelled.

It is frankly a little disturbing.

Don't eat the hash browns
It's just grease masquerading
As actual food.

------------------------

I still have a soft spot (plus a clogged artery or two) in my heart for McDonald's Sausage Biscuit with Egg, but that thing they call a hash brown that comes with is just straight up disgusting. That's why I always order an apple pie with my breakfast. It may not be healthy for me, but it's certainly healthier than the alternative.

Ice cream for others
Sounds like a friendly gesture
But I gain the weight.

---------------------------

I've been on an ice cream kick for a couple of months now, making it mostly for friends' birthdays, though I do withhold the occasional batch for myself. Recently I've made Mint Chocolate Chip, Cookies & Cream, Vanilla, Chocolate, Mango Sherbet, multiple batches of Salted Caramel, and a surprisingly good Banana Red-Hots. And if there's a bit more than will fit in a quart container? Well...
