I want to bake.

I really do.

Baking is a very good way for me to deal with stress.

But you see, if I bake, I eat. And I'm trying to be good about that. No cookies or cakes or such. And certainly not flapjack. But you know pineapple and pears and raspberries and strawberries just don't cut it right now.

I watched a slightly sappy, but rather lovely film. 500 days of summer. I have been wanting to watch this since it was showing in cinemas. My mum bought the dvd months ago. Finally tonight I got to watch it. Its really quite good. It isn't a love story. But it is quite nice all the same.

Yesterday I watched Happy Gilmore and Big Daddy, because Adam Sandler is AWESOME. Never fails to cheer me up. Not that I'm down. Just a bit stressed.

My exhibition is next week, and I have finished the work, but now I'm starting to doubt the work, and I'm thinking of acquiring frames for some of the darker stuff. But that stuff is all irregular shapes. Why couldn't I conform to regular sizes? Damn my emotional outbursts in ink. But really I do like my recent attempts, I just, I just feel they are a bit rubbish. I think its just nerves. And stress. But still, more frames I think, because better safe than sorry.

Oh gosh I must think of names for the triptych. Can't they all just be called the same darn thing? They could be called "emotional outburst landscape" I actually like that.

I'm having a barbecue next week (weather permitting). This might be my opportunity to bake, because then I don't necessarily have to eat the baked things, I can feed them to my friends. Yes, that is the solution. Bake cookies, and potentially lemon cake, and make other people eat them!

PS - I watched the entire of Season 1 of Supernatural in 4 days this week. It was a little bit too much of an extremely attractive men fighting evil overload, but in a good way. I need Season 2 now. I've seen it once before, but with men that attractive, it is always best to watch it again.

Also, I read some more Buffy comics, more on that later.

  1. You could always bake things and send them to me to eat. Also, I wait in tingly, excited anticipation for your verdict on the Buffy comics. More can be arranged to be sent in the near future (like this week?)
