Let the rain fall, I don't care

Thaden broke his arm yesterday. Small greenstick fracture. Giselle went to be with Thaden, I went to see medstuffs. And I know for sure that if I'm supposed to, I want to do something in medicine.

I got up, swept, cleaned the counters, washed dishes, made breakfast for Mum, like I do every morning. Then I made homemade salsa (BEST I have ever tasted: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Fresh-Tomato-Salsa/Detail.aspx Added a clove of garlic, didn't use the peppers, added corn, would have added beans if we had 'em, added a tsp or so of vinegar)

Then I made corn tortillas. Triple the recipe (which means 16 times 3). Water, salt, masa harina. Awesomeness. My Da wanted to buy chips at the store yesterday, but Mum charged me with making sure he didn't buy things that we didn't absolutely need, and I told him I'd make salsa and chips. We already had the masa, and the salsa ingredients are cheap, and it gave me something to do. In fact, it gave me 3-ish hours of something to do. 

Oh, also, yesterday, I made fudgies, and mashed potatoes, but in the mashed potatoes, I used a packet of Rice-A-Roni flavouring (Parmesan) because we didn't like the way it tasted with the Rice-A-Roni so we saved it and it had been sitting in the cabinet forever.

So after all that, I showered then took Schink to Cub Scouts at 5:20, and I stayed and played piano, then Mum called and I picked Aurora up from B-Ball at 7-ish and we got fro-yo then went back to the church, and I stayed until 9:40. After I decided that I should leave, I drove around backwards in the church parking lot for a song, then my iPod died, and I had to listen to the radio. Ick. But the songs weren't horrible; "Womanizer", then that new Pink song, then something else that I didn't really like, then a couple of older musics. I don't know what it is, but I seriously LOVE listening to music in the car. Or listening to music at all. Or music in general. College: Where you learn things. But seriously. Like, I can't even describe it. I don't even know what to say. Can I plug my head in and let you feel?

Oh, I also finished reading Milkweed by Jerry Spinelli. It is an amazing book, and Spinelli's an amazing author. I LOVE his style; it's vague and poetic. I love it. Go read that book. And I still need to watch Life Is Beautiful.

But none of 'em were home

Inside their catacombs

A million ancient bees

Began to sting our knees

While we were on our knees

Prayin' this disease

Would leave the ones we love

And never come again

And on the radio

We heard November rain

On The Radio by Regina Spektor. I love her songs.

And while we're on songs I love, check out the song Emily by Johanna Newsom. It's 12-ish mins long, and it's a beautiful song. Mum says it's annoying, but I love it, and the lyrics are just beautiful. It's about her sister, who's an astrophysicist. I love that song, even though I don't understand all of it.

I love science. I am a nerd. But I'm a cool nerd, not a nerdy nerd. Heck yeah. Malleability!!!

Oh, and I miss having a math class, and I want to take a physics class. 

Art + Science. I really am a mash-up of opposites. I'm sweetness, if I do say so myself, and I do say so myself.

"So myself."

I haven't a care in the world, because I store all my cares on Mars.
