My shampoo smells like __________.

Grapefruit. Well, my shampoo doesn't, but my conditioner does. I have to admit, when it comes to shampoo and body wash, it's really the citrus stuff I like. Not that I want to smell like food. Because, honestly, I hate the idea of smelling like gingerbread cookies or mom's caramel apple pie, but there's something genuinely refreshing about grapefruit. It speaks to me. In the shower I hear it whispering, "Hey, wake your ass up before you slip and die" or sometimes, "If you could sing any more off key, the CIA would track you down for an attempted assassination attempt." But when you roll out of bed and you're still groggy, all you really hear are mumbled versions of this. Is it just me, or is grapefruit really sassy?

So I haven't blogged in a while. Why is this? Well, mostly, it's lack of pictures. I like illustrations to go with my prose. It makes everything so much more friendly. Perhaps if I got off my ass and changed the batteries in my camera once in a while and used it....I would blog more. Yeah, I'm sure motivation will find me once again. Just, honestly, I feel like my life is so mundane at times that there's nothing to blog about. Which of course, is a total load of bullshit. Plenty happens in my life. Perhaps not as much as what happens in other people's lives, but I have a story and maybe someday people will hear it.

So what has happened in my life? Well, I auditioned for the Respect solo. Still haven't heard anything even after a second audition. I'm not worried. I totally pwned. That or I'm delusional. If only I had a Simon Cowell. Well, maybe not, because then I'd go to prison for attempted murder and first degree assault. But yeah...I'm hoping for the verdict tomorrow. Supposedly, it's supposed to go to two people since we're performing two shows that night....supposedly.

Well, I have another mid-term coming up, which means some baking is definitely underway. I made some banana bread and--I'm not boasting, this is pure fact--it was the best banana bread EVER made. In the history of man. And of course, I made some quiche. Went for a Mexican flavor instead of more of a Southwest flavor because--well, markets up here suck. Still no chorizo to be found, but I used cubed steak, onions, bell peppers, portabella mushrooms and a packet of burrito seasoning to spice things up a bit because my spices are limited up here. But it was really amazing. I wish I took a picture. There's still 3/4 left....so I could take a picture if I weren't lazy. Yeah, not going to happen. Maybe tomorrow. Then I'll have a reason to blog tomorrow. Anyways, I had it with some pineapple and peach salsa and avocado. It was superb.

Talking to my mom as I write this. Apparently, my license plates arrived in the mail today! My first license plates!! I feel like such an adult. I don't get them until I go home for Thanksgiving though--my mom's too cheap to mail them I guess. Whatever. I can wait. *twiddles thumbs* I can.
