Guess how big the leek was!

This morning when I was brushing my teeth, the faucet broke. The water stayed on all day until the plumber came when I got off of work at 3:00. I read a newspaper article that said really obvious things about how bottled water is stupid, and I felt bad.

I really did get an enormous leek (plus a normal-sized leek) in the CSA box. It's as big as my arm, which is massive! We got rutabagas, too! I have never eaten one, so I'm pretty excited about that. Carrots=carrot cupcakes. We have been waiting two weeks for them because we were so busy that our last carrot bunch went soft before we could use them.

I went to the store and spent 40 cents on a lemon. Mr. Tusks followed me for two blocks when I went, until I scared him into the street. I was trying to scare him back toward the house, but I guess my scaring was too vague. Every time I go outside I feel like I have a thousand tiny cuts inside of my throat, because there are floral items in the air. I got some hate mail and some love mail. The love mail was way better.

I made a vaudeville beaver puppet last night while I was waiting to hear from my partner so I could work on my school project. I haven't added the teeth or eyes yet, but I think I will finish those parts tonight. I haven't settled on his costume yet.

While I was waiting (this was like 6 hours of waiting) I also mended those four garments he's leaning on, so now I will be able to wear them in polite society.

I do have ever so many appointments with polite people nowadays. For example, sometimes the bus driver is polite. Depends on which one you get.

Next week is spring break, which doesn't really mean much. Slightly less schoolwork, maybe.

Now I have to take a shower because I sprayed myself with hollandaise sauce when I was making it in the blender.

Here is a picture of a dogtor from the internet. He has hands just like the pig-faced lady:

This proves that 2009 is exactly like 1837.

All in all, quite a fascinating day.
