Just a very bad wizard.

I have not done one of these in awhile, but I just had to give a shout out to Trader Joe's dried peaches. OMG. These things are awesome. I will never need gummy candy ever again. Nor will I have to pay umpteen dollars a pound for candied peaches like I did at Russ and Daughters (though I still love that shop). At 99 cents a bag, these delicious, natural, vegan treats are an incredible bargain. They do have sugar added, but they're also packed with fiber and vitamin C. I need to go back and stock up. Score another one for TJ. I give them a 9 out of 10. (They lose one point for coming all the way from China. I'm sure dried Georgia peaches would taste as good.)


Not much else to tell. I did a whole lot of nothing on Saturday. Well, I did watch Fast Food Nation and Accepted -- both decent, interesting/fun flicks (repectively). FFN didn't have any sort of resolution, which was strange. I liked Accepted better than Superbad, which I also watched last week. I've been watching quite a lot of movies lately. Then on Sunday I did a boatload of shopping, had lunch with cynima, and had dinner with the fam. So the weekend balanced itself out.

I'm feeling rather productive because in the last few days, I have actually done a few things I have been talking about doing for the past month. I'm joining a gym, and on Thursday I have an interview for a volunteer position at the Central Park Zoo. It's a big time commitment but I've just been feeling like I need to be doing something, rather than sitting around thinking about all the things I could be doing or could have done. I hope this proactive energy actually results in something positive. Hopefully a fitter, more active, more fulfilled, and more interesting MD!

I love that Nathan uses words that I actually have to look up. :b

Here's one I just learned:

Titian or titian - (in full Titian red) a striking red colour used by the Venetian painter Titian (Tiziano Vecellio, c. 1490 - 1576) esp for hair. -adj. (chiefly of hair) red-golden or (loosely) any other shade of red or reddish-brown. - adj. Titianesque in the manner of Titian, a combination of the richest surface and colour.

I like it. Much more romantic than "auburn" or "copper."


Today I went to the mall for shoes and some sort of wrap to wear with my dress for Elaine's wedding in two weeks. I did get a black velvet blazer and some nice, comfortable black platform sandals, which were on sale. The shoes look okay I think; the blazer I'm not sure about, I need a second opinion. But most exciting was that I got a pair of brown motorcycle boots for $38, half price! Yee-haw for doorbuster sales. :)
