First, for those that didn’t catch it, I posted two new 2009 calendars, a monthly art calendar of paintings, and a book-style weekly calendar of body modification stuff. They’re in the entry before this one.
Another good day today (with the exception of temporary hiccups, all my days are good)… I got busted up a bit at the gym (after running for ten minutes, my heart rate was nearly 170 — definitely felt delirious and nauseous — so I am looking forward to getting my basic fitness foundation rebuilt over the next weeks). Last time I spent a while at the gym I dropped down to a hundred and sixty pounds, which is my “trim and fit weight”. My goal this time around is to try and keep my weight up as high as I can. Oh, and if you’re wondering the handweb piercing did not cause a problem for squats, presses, rows, gremlins (I think that’s what Daniel called it — a miserable push-up/row/squat/press combo), or anything else…
We went to the park after school to play, and had the excellent of luck of not only running to a schoolmate and neighbor, but also some gigantic piles of leaves. Seriously huge.
For supper Nefarious helped me cook smelt (tiny little fish). Absolutely delicious — we poached them in a soy/lemon/butter sauce and the flesh just peeled off the spines and melted in our mouths. Soooooo good, and enough food to feed four (we stuffed ourselves) for $2.60. Smelt is a very inexpensive fish! I remember them from fundraising fish fries when I was a kid, and like them just as much as an adult.

So it turned out to not be the saddest day? That’s good news!
Saddest day for me because I dropped my giant sprout salad on the kitchen floor :(
Saddest day for Caitlin because the apartment smelt of our cooking when she got home from work…
your food pix make me long for a time when i will have my own stove/oven to cook tastey things on :)
oh and tonight, like around 6pm roughly. i looked up and saw the moded guy that works on nasa on the history channel on some program talking about energy and the orbs though i didnt catch much of it.
My wife hates the smell of smelt too but they are just too damn good for me to stop cooking them. Have you ever gone fishing for them? They get a small run in Wellington still. I managed to get a few hundred this past spring. mmm smelt.
I love smelt! I go dipping for them every spring. I however just eat the spines too. After cooking them you can barley notice them.
