mrglh!!!

I had a brilliant idea yesterday: what if we made music videos to classical music(i.e. not pop culture music–the culture opening it up from top 40 to wut all us kidz listen to). It would be like fantasia+MTV+youtube. And I would start listening to Mozart again.


Last night I had a dream that I was in a church meeting that was alternately Catholic and Mormon. Each would take turns speaking and we took turns with our sacrament. Except that it was more substantial than the regular bread and water/wafer and juice(wine?). It was more like taking turns for a Last Supper or pot luck. I don't know. I think at one point I looked down at my plate and thought, "What's this purple stuff? This isn't sacrament..." And I think there was plaid flannel somewhere in there, too.


Does anyone else feel like they should be completing this check list everyday:


1. Read a book
2. Knit a scarf
3. Run 5 miles
4. Do yoga for an hour
5. Study the scriptures both spiritually and intellectually so you could rattle off all of the laws in Deuteronomy and their cultural implications.
6. Bake delicious things
7. Meditate for half an hour
8. Get lots of work done
9. Walk to work even though it adds on at least half an hour
10. Write a lengthy and insightful journal entry
11. Read at least 3 peer reviewed articles and find a way to make them fascinating outside of academia
12. Write a couple of letters
13. Make sure the house is all really clean
14. Design and sew three shirts
15. Mend that cardigan


And since you never seem to manage getting all of that done instead you only reread books that you liked as a kid so you don't get anymore stressed by surprise plot twists, never cook anything and you never journal, you try not to think about writing grad school application letters, and you try to ignore all of the people you said you would write to.


OK cool.
