http://melslife.org It's my life, I do what I want! Thu, 30 Jul 2009 06:04:08 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en I know John Lennon is supposed to be my favorite Beatle. I mean, I'm an atheist and he wrote Imagine and that song has become the atheist anthem. He's also John Lennon. Don't get me wrong, I like him, he's just not my favorite Beatle. No, that distinction goes to ... http://melslife.org/archives/2009/07/30/classic/ Of all the things I've made, my favorite was a white linen skirt that had embroidered pink flowers on it. I didn't embroider the flowers, though I started doing some embroidery after I made that skirt because I thought it was so pretty. The skirt wasn't really anything special. It ... http://melslife.org/archives/2009/07/27/pink-flowers/ So..... you know bees make honey, for bees. And then us humans come along and steal their honey. When we steal their honey we do things like use smoke to calm them down. We might crush them when handling them. We use other substitutions for honey to feed them so ... http://melslife.org/archives/2009/07/22/bees/ I'm on day 3. This hasn't been hard so far. Of course, I've eaten at home every day. Last night I ate the most delicious salad I think I've ever tasted and it had 3 ingredients - arugula, tomatoes, and almonds. The dressing helped of course but it was just ... http://melslife.org/archives/2009/07/16/day-3-with-this-veg-thing/ I'm considering going vegetarian. Well, I'm more than considering it. I could write a novel about how and why but it's not because of the animals. I do love animals but I'm not convinced that a strawberry doesn't cry out in pain when it's picked. We just can't hear it ... http://melslife.org/archives/2009/07/14/going-veg/ My sister and I disagree on nearly everything. I think maybe tacos and steak might be the only things we both think are awesome. She repeatedly harasses me about the way I dress and I look at her and just shake my head. I told her the other day I ... http://melslife.org/archives/2009/06/12/new-shirt/ We had a great time in Vegas. We drank a bit, we gambled a bit, we saw a Beatles show, we did lots of things. I had a hangover from hell on Sunday morning when we came home. It was fun though. I always love wax museums - that's a ... http://melslife.org/archives/2009/06/09/vegas/ I don't know how I can spend over an hour and get one small thing done. I think tonight I've changed my theme and fixed my widgets. Oh, I've managed to reorder my pages. I'm going to come up with a better little tag line. "It's my life, I do ... http://melslife.org/archives/2009/06/02/progress-slow-but-steady/ Dave Matthews Band's new album, Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King, is actually pretty good. Their past few albums haven't been that great so I'm pleased that this new one is better. I hate that it may have taken something like the death of their horns guy to bring out ... http://melslife.org/archives/2009/06/02/groogrux-king/ I'm going to take back this blog. I've been on another blog and I'm going to clean this place up and reclaim it..... that's all for now. http://melslife.org/archives/2009/06/02/im-taking-this-back/
