crack the top with a spoon

everyone is asleep in this house but me. i don't know why, it's not that late.

today i had creme broulee. it was very tasty and i would not mind having it again.

during that meal, i had a really naive notion. i was eating my seafood chowder and i decided, at my husband's restaurant, his chowder will have noodles in it. for some reason i think he's gonna be an entrepreneur. told you it was naive.

also checked out this supercool yellow bike in the window display @ wheaton's. 240, 50 down. it is so awesome, maybe i won't go to paris next year so i can save up for it and a car. i don't know yet. in fact, i don't even know where my wallet is.

wow, that is a really bad lead-in to this next paragraph. because that's exactly what traumatic situation my brother is in. by calling it traumatic it almost sounds mocking i know but this is very serious. edward thinks someone stole his wallet from him, containing his i.d. and over 3 thousand dollars. he is freaking out. i bet this is his cherry. i hate cherries. you take a compilation of a bunch of disasters that happen in your life within a period of time and they accumulate like a sundae. and then the damn cherry goes on top of it all. not only is he totally across the country with no one he knows doing a job he dreads, he also is not eating well. mom says he is making himself suffer on purpose. this is a perplexing thought. it is a strange idea that bothers me. what is going to happen? nothing worse please nothing worse. edward you are so very far away.

i really need to laugh right now. amy called today but i wasn't home. julian and i are weird and i would never call him at a time like this. ben is working. who is there to make me laugh?

funny last note (though not quite laughable), i asked my mom what she thought of my new glasses, she said they make you look less sophisticated. well, what do i look more like?? you look l like you like to have fun. ok you didn't think that was funny i guess you just i had to be there.. i just think that's quite an idiom, you look like you like to have fun heh heh there's actually a look where you can just tell like that? and doesn't everyone want to have fun? what? ok i guess i took it too far, that's it.
