just some thoughts while I am up late

I have been participating with the New York City and Queens freecycle groups for 3-4 weeks now. I primarily am giving things away, but a couple of weeks ago I went on my first pick-up. I was thinking about this today because tonight someone was supposed to come over and pick-up some things from me. When I went to this apartment, I was a little amazed and how dirty it was. I expected messy, as the family is moving, but this was dirty and the place actually smelled. Now, I didn't take all that much - some candle holders, a plastic bucket, and a few paperbacks. The candle holders were covered with greasy dust. I just don't think I could have strangers coming to my house like that and giving away dirty things.

I've been watching What Not To Wear for 3 hours. One of the episodes tonight was this woman with a really large chest and they got her in awesome looking tops by buying things thyat were really too big but that fit the chest adn then tailoring them in for the waist and arms. It was really amazing how much better it looked.

Now there is the woman who is 6' and rail thin and she was so mousy and stuck in 13 yo nerdy land and WOW what a difference. She looks like a model.

I had yummy artichoke for dinner. Why did the artichoke have to be made to be so had to eat and yet so yummy. Like the pomegranite.
