I made cinnamon rolls for New Year's brunch today. They came out ok, but I've had better. I'd try a more promising recipe, but I'm kind of sweet breakfast food-ed out.
Tomorrow I think I'll make some beef barley soup.
Well, if we followed the recipe...should be cake. A demon-violence-free-zone cake.

What can I do with dried figs? I'm sure I won't eat them as is.
Cut them up into yogurt or cereal? Add them to frozen cherries and pie crust for a fig-cherry turnover?
If they are too hard, rehydrate them by pouring boiled water over them and soaking for 30 minutes or so.

I completely missed the parade this morning. I should surf for pictures of the floats.
Our New Year's holiday culling/organizing was not a planned event. Apparently Kelly woke up in a bad mood and decided to take down the ornaments, then the ribbons, then the lights, and then the rest of the house Christmas decor. But she drew the line at putting any of it away. So...I picked it up from there.
She is in a better mood now and I'm not sure if that is a good or bad thing. I still haven't packed for vacation tomorrow. Eeeeep.

Uhg. Well, I managed to swim, and while I felt human only while swimming, it was a hard slog as I'm just exhausted. Then I had to do the floors and pick up and uhg. It's done, but I don't really think I had the energy for that so will be paying for it. And I need to dust. Have major necessities shopping to do tomorrow.
I'd just rather sleep.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You guys. The internet really does have everything! In what I think may be the apex of each of these sites, here is a tumblr devoted to YouTube videos of people dancing alone to Ginuwine's "My Pony" [link] Holy shit. I just don't even.

Jesse, OMG.
I bought film for my Polaroid and a snood off of etsy. I think I should back away from the Internet for a while.

Oh, amyth, I'm so sorry about your brother. Thanks for letting us know.
And thank goodness for the ridiculousness of the internet, huh?
