When You Can't Think of Anything to Blog About ...
Go look at what your blog friends are blogging about, and copy Nicole.
1. 9am is off visiting his family for the week, and I'm greatly enjoying having the apartment to myself. I don't have to put on a bra before leaving my bedroom, and don't have to clean up messes in the kitchen that I didn't make. It's also nice to not have to see 9am involuntarily flex his muscles each time he feels his masculinity is threatened, like when I catch him laughing his very high-pitched laugh.
2. I like to walk along the Embarcadero. You can look out at the San Francisco Bay, walk right under the Bay Bridge, and you don't have to pay attention to traffic at all, because, like Boston's Esplanade, there's no break in sidewalk.
3. Not too far from the ballpark where the SF Giants play there used to be this funky candle store on the Embarcadero that I liked to stop in at during my walks. Then it moved. The store listed their new address. I looked it up on a map. I went to where I thought it should be, right in my neighborhood. But it wasn't there. I gave up. It's not like I had any urgent need for candles.
4. Today I bought eggs.
5. On my way home, I saw a sign for the funky candle store, complete with directions in my language (go to end of walkway, turn right, follow curve of street, shop is on the right past auto body store). I was very excited to finally find the store again! Turns out they have changed to mostly selling wholesale, which is why they didn't need such a huge space on the Embarcadero anymore. Also turns out, they were having a sale, and the candles they show on the clearance section of their website that sell for $5 are being sold in the store for $3.
6. Still, I did not buy any. Wasn't that a nice story?
7. I don't really have anything else to share. Nothing else is going on with me these days.
8. Oh wait! Did I tell you about the time a few months ago when I tried to make mashed potatoes and it didn't go well? I wound up having to throw out the whole concoction, which greatly upset me as I hate to waste money.
9. Well, last week, I looked at several recipes for mashed potatoes, figured out what I'd done wrong (hadn't boiled the potatoes, nor had I had a potato masher which while not technically necessary, probably does make things much easier), and tried again while staying at Crazy Girl and Golden Boy's house. With great success! If you ever come over and I offer you mashed potatoes, whip your fork out from your pocket and dig in, because they're fabulous.
10. Lastly, I'd just like to make sure you're aware of FMyLife and FailBlog. Both funny. Both highly inappropriate for work.

I am sorry but I had to laugh very hard just now... You didn't boil the potatoes??!?
Mashed potatoes with knob celery is very nice by the way.
So did you buy the Eggland's Best, and are they truly better than other eggs?
Mashed potatoes, butter, sugar, and milk. I know, it sounds gross to a lot of grown-ups but that's how my mom made it. My mom has a sweet tooth and will put sugar in anything. ANYHOO. It was yummy. I still think it is yummy.
You are so funny.
