Well, I did pearls today. Yay me. Two whole books.
Did you know that there is a pearl-luster imitation made of varnish and fish scales? Now you do.
And pearls are formed in the gonads of the mollusk? So pearls are kind of like mollusk kidney stones.
Do you see how much richer your life is since you've friended me?
Next up: Jade and Opal. Woo Hoo! I will finish Colored Stones by the end of the year, damn it! Then, the Gem Ident.

I have been in a pissy mood for some time now. Mostly, I think, because of tummy troubles. I hate tummy troubles. But I am feeling much better today which is aces, especially as I was in such a wretched mood yesterday. Pissy, pissy, pissy, that was me. Every little thing just made it worse.

On Friday I rented Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Love Actually. Both, I gotta say, were disappointing. Not bad, mind, but they didn't live up to the hype. And as much as it grieves me to say it, they could have completely removed Colin Firth's whole part of LA and the movie would have been 20 minutes shorter and wouldn't have lost anything. Except, of course, the Firth. I assume they didn't because he is a Star of Note and they probably already had him on contract with the big bucks. It's not like he was Kevin Costner in The Big Chill destined to the cutting room floor.
As for ESotSM, I liked it. I did. I liked Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet. I did. But I felt it kind of lacked something, though what I do not know. It was still good and an interesting head trip.

Tonight I made Hot Chicken Salad, a recipe I got from my mom. It is yummy. I will have it with Brown Rice, peas and corn. Delicious and nutritious.

Today I saw Bowling for Columbine for the first time. It was good and definitely interesting, but I can never fully trust Michael Moore so that kind of colored my view. But I was really surprised – in a good way – by Marilyn Manson. Very well spoken and informed. You go with your scary-ass self. I’m sorry. He’s probably the most normal guy on the planet but he scares me.
Now I must go vegetable.
