i have this weird thing

i have this weird thing for dishes. i can't stop buying them!! currently, i have everyday dishes, casual occasion dishes, special occasion dishes, breakfast dishes, cute rainbow plastic picnic dishes, and now pretty sushi dishes. and i have my eye on purple and pink summer/outdoor dishes, but i'm waiting for them to go on sale. ;-) yeah, i know, i'm a freak.

one of my goals this

one of my goals this year is to learn how to cook. it's not like i ruin everything i try to make, on the contrary, i think i'm a better cook than most people i know. but i always feel so much more satisfied when i make something like a meal (tonight i made a chicken teryaki bowl with broccoli, mmm) as opposed to something in a box with a flavor packet. i guess the first step would be to go to the grocery store more often. ;-)

it's wet here in cali.

it's wet here in cali. while i was at work, it started raining very, very hard, and then it hailed for a good 5-7 minutes. by the time i got out of work over an hour later, the ground was still icy and crunchy, and there were even piles of what looked like, ~gasp~, snow. it wasn't snow, but the novelty of it was still really cool. i have to say, though, i'm really glad i don't live in a snowy place. rain is bad enough, thank you.

so, re-formatting my computer worked great, and now i can use my mouse again. except i decided to be all clever and save my mail folders and just stick them in netscape when i re-installed. but NO, it's not working and i'm getting really pissed.

so, i think i'm gonna

so, i think i'm gonna totally wipe out my computer tomorrow. it's funny, i've got all this stuff to back up and i only have so many cd-rw's, so i need to delete and re-assess and re-arrange things so they all fit just right. and of course, instead of doing that so i can get this annoying task over with, i'm watching comedy central. procrastinating is so fun...

well, i'm trying out netscape

well, i'm trying out netscape six for a few days before i completely re-format my hard drive. i'm not too sure if i like it - mostly because they moved and changed everythng and something that once used to be second nature is now a bit more difficult and mildly irritating. rrg.

my friend alex always has great music reccommendations for me, and he comes through yet again - coldplay is pretty damn good.

i love crush.nu, since i've been a professional crusher since i was just a little tyke. i started about four stories to send to them, but they never seemed right... but there is a new crush in my life, so maybe i'll have a story with a happy ending to send to them soon.

i was watching vh1's 100 greatest rock and roll albums countdown. all great stuff - i was just totally floored that grace was on there. it took me a while to warm up to jeff buckley, but now i just love him.

i'm really frustrated with my news server. i download really BIG sound files from the phish binaries group, and sometimes it goes at light speed and other times it goes really damn slow. it's not usually that big of a deal but i'm two days behind and i'm worried that things are gonna start dissapearing off the server. rrg.

so, last night i headed in to san jose for the second time this week to check out the house over at bethel. i know it sounds like a really bizarre thing - to go to church on your birthday, but you know, i'm really glad i went - it's been a long time since i've been and i really missed it.
