MUSHROOM MASALA WALA  -  @ 3:35 pm

i just had lunch with my friend thad, who is here visiting, and we went to the gateway of india and had their most excellent lunch buffet. if you like indian food and you haven’t been to the gateway, WHAT EXACTLY ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

today there were more choices than there have ever been, including the very delicious mushroom masala wala. i just looked it up online in hopes of re-creating the dish, but i couldn’t find a recipe. maybe it’s really just “mushroom masala” and the wala part was just thrown in for the nice sound it makes when you say “masala wala.” i had two helpings.

and, even though it was a bit chilly in the restaurant, i perservered and had some mango ice cream which is always very tasty.

and now, it’s still very warm here, almost 60, and we took a lovely walk and the weekend is upon us and it still seems a little hard to believe that i’m actually doing a show in just TWO NIGHTS from now, not to mention the big dress rehearsal tomorrow night and i’m pretty sure there are things i should be doing right this very instant to be getting ready.

but i may just go outside again, seeing how winter continues to elude us.

ok ok ok,

almost the end of the year grace.

pluses and minuses  -  @ 10:07 pm

pluses: my hair is now longer and blonder, after my journey to amy’s salon this morning. she was supposed to do my hair tomorrow morning, but she called me at ten and said CAN YOU COME RIGHT NOW? and luckily i was actually dressed and could head right out the door and now that i’m blonder with LONGER hair, which doesn’t usually happen when you go to the hair stylist, now does it? i should be much, MUCH happier in general.

NO SNOW HERE! as opposed to denver, where clearly the city will soon be just a white dot on the landscape, nobody will even be able to find out where it is located, buried under feet and feet of snow. christine, i hope you’re well stocked with brie and bread and a good bottle of wine.

not only is there no snow here, but it was pretty darn warm today so we took mollie for a great run.

is that it? all the pluses you can think of? we went to this chinese buffet tonight, i think it was called best buffet, but randy and i went there one other time and i was wide awake at two in the morning after eating there and i talked to randy the next day and he had also been wide awake so we figured there was lots of msg in the food. but when i told him this tonight he couldn’t remember this happening at all, so i’m definitely going to call him tonight at two.

right now i’m filled with boundless energy, as a matter of fact, even though i have been up the entire day, plus i ran for quite a long time, plus i had to my whole show which was tiring. but the msg is flowing, not to mention the large cup of tea i had before going out for dinner.

BBBZZZZZZZ, i’m already running out of things to do.

the minuses: will i ever stop eating christmas cookies? before i turn into a big enormous large cookie myself? theoretically (but only in theory) people will eat them on saturday night during the dress rehearsal for my show. i’m thinking i’ll also send them home with cookies.

if, of course, there are ANY LEFT BY SATURDAY NIGHT.

so then you really only have one minus? and soon this minus will be eliminated because, one way or another, the cookies will soon be gone?

apparently so.

well, another minus is that i need to get some focus in the new year. that kind of weighs down on my mind.

and what is the perfect cure for something weighing down on my mind?

COOKIES, of course.

ok ok ok,

only somewhat crazy grace.

post-xmas letdown  -  @ 10:44 pm
randy was feeling it, and so was i. i’ve been fighting it all day, though. i worked out for quite a long time at the fit club, except when i stepped on the treadmill and was treading for a minute or two it suddenly ground to a halt and said REPAIR NEEDED so i had to switch machines. luckily, even though there were lots of people trying to sweat off the overindulgences of xmas day, there was another open machine and i ran for 40 minutes only because “back to the future ii” was on tv, and i couldn’t stop watching.


here are some photos of my husband kevin, seen here playing the guitar like he’ll be doing WITHOUT ME ON NEW YEAR’S EVE.

kevin 1

this was at a gig on a very rainy, very cold night sometime around halloween. VERY rainy. VERY cold.

clearly, though, my husband didn’t care that it was cold and rainy and even very very cold inside the barn where they were performing.

kevin 2

he’s a cheerful guy anyway.

one more

one more photo of him, loving playing that guitar. he’s going to be in southern illinois on our FIRST NEW YEAR’S EVE TOGETHER AS MAN AND WIFE, which doesn’t thrill me. plus, he’s spending the night in LITCHFIELD, and since he’ll be that close i keep thinking I’LL JUST DRIVE DOWN THERE AND STAY WITH HIM. but if it’s such a dangerous time that even HE thinks it’s too dangerous to be on the highway, then perhaps i shouldn’t be on the highway either.

he’s such a nice person, here’s what he gave the fencers in fencing class - he fenced against each of us and let us all win. the spastic nine year-old, who always JUST WANTS TO FENCE, was especially thrilled that he won. i was even forced to fence against the spastic 9YO because i’m left-handed and left-handed fencers aren’t that common.

tonight we watched “elf,” which is a FANTASTIC movie and makes me laugh a lot. well, i don’t actually laugh that much because something has to be really funny to make me laugh and i’m pretty cynical about what’s actually funny. but elf, a really great xmas movie.

new year’s eve performance, coming right up, i think i need to start trying to psych myself into thinking about the reality of doing another show in just a few days. theoretically it’s going to be quite funny.

but only in theory, till it actually happens.

i hope your xmas was everything you wanted it to be, or at least i hope your family didn’t annoy you too much. not that they would, i probably don’t even KNOW your family, but it does seem that the holiday can bring out annoyance in people.

goodnight goodnight goodnight.

grace.

p.s. i think the week between xmas and new year’s should be a MANDATORY HOLIDAY for ABSOLUTELY EVERYBODY. i personally don’t feel like doing anything but tomorrow i must do a bunch of stuff.

merry christmas!  -  @ 1:57 pm
this is me and kevin, at the place where we thought amy and jim got married. it’s near the hyatt resort on kauai. i talked to mom on the phone a few times about where, exactly, they got married, and we reallly thought this was the place and got a woman to take our picture. but then i talked to amy later and that wasn’t the place at all. we did finally manage to find the REAL wedding spot, but by then we were tired of looking so kevin just took a picture of it, we didn’t bother trying to find somebody to take our picture together.


marriage

gee, it’d be nice to be there right now. at least it’s not horribly cold today, only somewhat. but it’s grey grey grey. the only way to cure the greyness, of course, is with MORE COOKIES!

mollie is happily chewing on her huge peanut butter-flavored rawhide candy cane.

ok ok ok, i hope yours is a nice and cheerful and peaceful and great day.

christmas grace.

merry...merry...merry...  -  @ 11:35 pm

picture me saying this very very sleepily, as i attempt to get just a few...just a few...more things done b4 xmas. which is about a half hour away.

nothing critical to do. just overly-tired. today we took mollie for a 50-minute run, which was good. i spent the majority saying my show in my head, which kind of slowed me down. that, and the fact that i feel slow. weighted down by the excessive amount of cookies and chocolates i can’t stop eating.

after tomorrow, will i snap out of this sugar addiction? hardly likely. but you never know. never give up hope!

tonight we had xmas eve dinner at amy and jim’s and she made horseshoes. we kept calling them traditional lowfat xmas horseshoes because i think it’s very funny that you’d have horseshoes for xmas eve dinner. they were good, of course. i made salad and MANY MANY COOKIES. we’re serving cookies again tomorrow and kevin said he didn’t think people would be sick of cookies, i guess they won’t be sick of them like i am, since that’s all i’ve been living on for the past week or so. waddling around the house eating cookies.

speaking of gluttony, mollie was of course in heaven today. first a great and long run, and then a car ride to amy and jim’s, and then lots and lots and LOTS of treats and french fries and everything she could get her little doggie paws on. who could resist such a cute and starving pup?

not to mention the huge mouthfulls of food she managed to snag at mom and dad’s house before going to amy and jim’s. she was even more well-fed today than usual.

so we got home a little while ago (so kevin can GO TO WORK ON XMAS EVE) and mollie rushed to her bowl where some of the automatic-dispensing kibbles were just dispensing and she WOLFED them all down because SHE WAS STARVING.

and then when i gave the kitty a treat mollie was RIGHT THERE WAITING FOR HER TREAT.

no more treats tonight, i told her. so now she’s sleeping in the bed, perhaps satisfied for a few brief moments.

tomorrow will be more treats and snacks and the giant rawhide candy cane we got her for xmas.

i hope yours is merry. at least i hope it comes close to mollie’s ongoing holiday delight

ok ok ok,

christmas grace.

fried kix!  -  @ 9:30 am

is just one of the many things that make living here in the heartland so awe-inspiring.

the other day a neighbor brought us a plate of xmas cookies. mostly it was pizzelles, which were quite delicious. but there were also some small balls which were fried something, and they tasted to me like FRIED KIX. you know, the cereal.

yesterday we went to a little holiday gathering at another neighbor’s house - it started at ten in the morning, kind of early for reveling, but it was fun to drink punch with balls of sherbet in it and plates and plates of cookies and chocolate not that long after i’d gotten out of bed. “start your day with sherbet and chocolate” could be a good motto to live by.

the neighbor who had given us the mystery fried balls was there, and i asked her how she made them. “lots of butter and sugar, and Kix,” she said. i was right, they were, indeed, FRIED KIX. delicious and nutritious and just one more reason why i’m going to gain 100 pounds in this holiday season.

last night ended with a party, too, one with a chocolate fountain. it was at randy’s and i was in charge of both assembling the fountain and melting the huge quantities of chocolate, and i managed to do my tasks without flipping any chocolate-covered spoons onto the newly-cleaned floor. nor did i crash into the fountain and create a chocolate river.

a good time was had by all.

ok, i really REALLY have to focus on xmas-type stuff because it’s coming right up.

you wouldn’t know it by the weater, though, because yesterday it was in the hight 50’s and i went running with mollie and today it’s going to be almost as warm and the grass is pretty green and i think we’ve seen enough of winter for one winter.

ok, must get busy, i hope your friday is good and stress-free.

grace with the holiday waddle.



Dec. 20, 2006
well.....  -  @ 11:42 pm

i talked to christine tonight, after about four years of not talking for no good reason. and they’re having a HUGE HUGE SNOWSTORM there in denver. piles and piles of snow. it started yesterday but she went to work this morning anyway because she is christine and she does stuff like that. she can’t help it.

just like mollie the dog can’t help helping herself to treats, if we leave the house and leave the kitchen cupboard wide open. when i came home there were some cat food cans on the floor - she had to push them over in order to get to HER TREATS. in the bedroom was a shredded bag of assorted treats that i’d found at the back of the cupboard just yesterday, and clearly she NEEDED TO EAT THEM. she was also walking around with another bag of treats in her mouth, which she wanted me to see, so i’d take it away from her because she knew that of course she shouldn’t really be eating this whole bag of treats. she didn’t mind at all when i took it away and gave her just one treat.

she’s STARVING TO DEATH all the time.

today at petsmart i had to look at the poor kitties waiting to be adopted, and there was one big grey striped cat who looked exactly like winston; they might have come from the very same litter for all i know, and it just killed me to have to look at this poor kitty in a cage. i wish i could take more poor cats home with me.

i don’t need any xmas presents, because i bought myself the perfect gift tonight at schnuck’s. on my way home from work i was going to stop at shop-n-save but couldn’t bring myself to going in there because i figured it would be crowded and it’s always too huge and also so overlit, so i decided to go to schnuck’s instead and i’m SO GLAD I DID.

i bought the few little things i needed, and then i looked at the ice cream, and they had LOWFAT EGGNOG ICE CREAM.

i adore eggnog, and could easily drink it every day, and then i’d weight 600 pounds. so i try to stay away from it altogether. but the past few days i’ve been thinking about eggnog ice cream, i even mentioned it casually to kevin, hoping he’d say “let’s go get some!” but he didn’t, and i didn’t press it because it’s not like i NEED eggnog ice cream.

but LOWFAT eggnog ice cream, what could be more perfect? nothing.

the only problem being that when i got home, it was just too cold for a bowl of ice cream. i told christine that i should turn the heat up to 78 and then i’d be in the mood for ice cream.

eggnog ice cream. a really good thing, and i think they need to have it all year around and then their slogan could be “eggnog ice cream...it’s not just for christmas anymore.”

i think i missed my calling; i should have been a copywriter.

sleep sleep sleep.

goodnight,

grace.



wednesday here in rainy springfield  -  @ 2:25 pm
AT LEAST IT’S NOT SNOW.

but i was thinking about running today, but not in the rain.

ok, here’s my photo for first night. perhaps it will be in a paper, as part of the first night advertising. but don’t expect to see it. but here it is.

gracetalk 2006

i keep going out and buying stuff at about nine in the morning, because that’s when people are already at work, and not too many shoppers have ventured out yet. but yesterday morning i was in macy’s, in the shoe department, for no good reason except i need a pair of closed-toe black shoes that aren’t all crazy big slinky sandals that don’t ever seem appropriate for various things like a memorial service i went to a few months ago, and to the symphony the other night, and other things where i don’t want to tromp around in really tall sandals feeling a little sleazy. i found nothing, of course, because i was only drawn to MORE slinky sexy sandals, and i don’t need any more of them.

anyway, there was a woman sitting in the shoe department trying on boots. she was trying on a pair of extremely spiky-heeled black boots which looked extremely expensive/dangerous to walk in/sexy.

but here’s what she looked like - thin, wearing a dark sweater dress. with a big cross made of diamonds around her neck. she was somewhere in her 60’s, i’d guess. lots of makeup, and her blonde hair was piled on her head, and perched on the top of the mounds of hair was a big fur hat with a hat pin in it.

and then she took off the boots and put on her own shoes - they were VERY TALL black pumps with a band around the ankle and they made my sexy sandals look like the footwear of a nun.

she slithered into her big fur coat that matched her hat, and i finally had to leave because i felt i was being too obvious as i stared at her, spellbound by her appearance.

you just don’t see women like that here in spfld very often. and it was also the combination - extremely sexy shoes, giant fur coat, huge diamond cross. interesting.

me, i was going to go work out afterwards so i was wearing sweats, no makeup, hair in a ponytail, and looked almost like a bag lady. except i wasn’t carrying any bags.

i should really be doing something christmassy right now. or i should be saying my show to myself.

i really feel like taking a nap.

here’s a photo of the bay of Hanalei. perhaps barack obama is there right now, sipping a drink and contemplating his presidential bid. on one hand he should and almost certainly will run, and will win...but on the other hand, it sure would be nice for him to just spend his time hanging out there in hanalei.

but he’s not even there, he’s in honolulu, i believe.

hanalei bay

ok ok ok,

grace

things are coming along...  -  @ 6:40 pm
well, except for doing any xmas shopping or baking cookies. i did bake one batch so far except it was just one big pan, of these delicious bars, not much work.

things with the SHOW are coming along, though. kevin graciously sat through another performance a few minutes ago, and now he’s napping. me, i’m WIRED, because i napped for an hour earlier except i wasn’t even so tired, and then i just had a very strong cup of tea.

the show is now 47 minutes, but the thing is, i could have written a lot less - a page less, as a matter of fact, and i keep cutting things but i don’t think i can cut any more. oh well, maybe i’ll jsut run a little bit long.

things are good, but i think a lot of that is the caffeine talking. my, i do have to say that i’m typing very, very fast.

we’re going to the holiday pops concert of the illinois symphony tonight and i was gonna get all dressed up but now i’m not in the mood. or hmm, maybe i am?

i love it that it reached SIXTY DEGREES today. screw the white christmas, bring on the global warming!

but seriously, we do need to buy a few gifts.

ok ok ok, i hope your weekend is/was fantastic.

p.s. i took this photo of kevin on that same day that we went to hanalei; as we walked in the sand, we sunk WAY DOWN.

gracefully grace.

where i’ve been...  -  @ 10:51 pm

i’ve been getting things done, fyi. many many things. show, memorized. which is a weird miracle; i just started on monday, and i finished doing it yesterday. speedy, i was very speedy. but now i think it’s too long. i need to cut more of it. and i need to practice a lot more. i did the show for kevin tonight, and it was tiring. it’s actually going to be the most difficult one because there won’t be any breaks for video-watching. just talk talk talking for 45 minutes.

except right now it’s more like 52 minutes.

here’s one more hawaii photo. i’m almost to the end of the FIRST OF TWO disks of hawaii photos. this is the hanalei valley.

hanalei valley

gee, i can’t believe it’s thurday already, i also can’t belive it’s only thursday. SUCH a very very busy week. mostly spent talking to myself. i was doing the show to myself as i went running with mollie this afternoon, and there were quite a few people out because it’s SO WARM and of course i’m sure they thought i was insane. or maybe the just thought i was talking to the dog.

no more snow. except some dirty black piles in some parking lots, like at the mall.

don’t go near the mall on the weekend! because christmas is COMING RIGHT UP.

right up.

i’m going to bake some christmas cookies tomorrow. and talk to myself.

ok then,

grace.


Dec. 11, 2006
monday afternoon...  -  @ 3:19 pm

i’ve spent most of the day memorizing, memorizing, memorizing my show. i want to get half of it memorized today, because i’m very busy for the rest of the week.

the weather is warmer. the evil snow is melting.

honey the cat continues to be very very bad. the other day we got home and there was a bird FLYING AROUND THE LAUNDRY ROOM. at least it didn’t seem to be injured and kevin caught it and put it outside and we watched it fly away.

this morning, though, honey was being silly, acting like she was trying to get something behind a bookcase - and then i realized it was another little bird. once again, i let it go but i think it was injured.

is there no stopping this fierce killer kitty? eventually she’ll get older and not as spry, but how does she catch them anyway, with no front claws? i try to feed her lots of food, but she’s not that hungry (because she’s always so busy snacking on poor little animals).

back to work.

ok then,

monday grace, full of energy and a good GET THINGS done attitude.


Dec. 07, 2006
HIBERNATION  -  @ 4:48 pm

that’s really all i want to do. that’s why you haven’t heard from me the past few days; i’ve been busy during the day, then at night i just want to put on my big pink robe and my slippers and hibernate.

BRRRR. right now it’s about 7 outside. maybe it got up to 12.

but saturday, SATURDAY, it might be in the 40’s.

and then maybe some of the damn snow and ice will melt.

tonight we’re going to a benefit auction and dinner for illinois humane. it starts...well, it starts in 17 minutes. we won’t be the first ones to arrive, let’s just say that. it lasts from five till 10 i think, and maybe we’ll be there around 6:30ish. it sounds fun, with hors d'oeuvres and cocktails and dinner and a live and a silent auction. plus COCKTAIL attired, so i rushed out and bought a new red sweater because i’m sick of all my clothes.

kevin is sleeping right now, since he didn’t go to sleep till after 9:30 this morning, and i know he must have been up at some point during the day because the box of HAWAIIAN CHOCOLATE MACADAMIAS was opened, lying on the counter.

i ate one, and it was a little disappointing. the chocolate was very hard and a little waxy. i can’t remember where we bought that chocolate; we might have gotten it at the last minute, as we frantically shopped our way around the hawaiian islands.

hibernation. not tonight, but plenty of hibernation over the weekend. except it’s going to be warmer, and god knows poor mollie needs a long walk or two, because she’s been sleeping all day with kevin. not that she dislikes sleeping all day, but she does need to get out every once in a while.

i have to get ready to go out now.

i hope your friday goes speedily by.

ok then,

rushing grace.

p.s. were you aware that xmas is LESS THAN THREE WEEKS AWAY? it’s a little unnerving, not that i have to buy a lot of gifts. but it certainly has crept up on me. today when i was buying my sweater, the woman in line in front of me was returning something because she said she’d found something ELSE to get as a gift instead. i haven’t even bought a FIRST round of gifts, and once i finally do manage to procure some, i’m sure not gonna take anything back.




Dec. 04, 2006
TRAPPED!  -  @ 8:44 pm

i’m here at randy’s, TRAPPED, forced to watch the Billboard Music Awards.

today is the first time i drove outside. i made it, somehow. our neighborhood is like an ice skating rink. like an ice skating rink from HELL, with huge huge craters and bumps and it’s worse than any other place i’ve been. many of the streets are dry, finally, but none in our neighborhood. sheets of very very bumpy ice.

many people have been without power, including my brother and my mom’s friend margaret. margaret refused to leave her apartment, instead staying inside where the temperature hovered around 40 degrees. horrible.

here at randy’s i saw Flava Flav for the very first time. jim informed me that Flava Flav has been around since the LATE EIGHTIES, and he has some really dumb reality show like the bachelor, where women are vying to be with him...i just have to ask, WHY? WHY? WHY????

the only interesting part about Flava F. is that he wears a GIANT CLOCK around his neck, like some huge rapper medallion. only it’s a CLOCK. randy says he wears different clocks.

WHY ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE CLEARLY SO RETARDED SO FAMOUS?

if any person at all, any person who is NOT famous, went around wearing a big clock, like a clock you’d have on a wall in an office, around their neck, WOULDN’T PEOPLE THINK THEY WERE INSANE?

yes.

i saw the nutcracker twice this weekend. it was really good, and it amazes me how julie guttas puts it all together. it looks like such a huge, HUGE amount of work. kevin, my HUSBAND, did a great job and it was funny when he came home still wearing his makeup. he washed his face, at least twice, and still there are traces of eyeliner. i told him it makes him look quite glamorous.

did i mention that we had about six inches of snow on thursday night? on top of an inch of ice? it took us a half hour to hack the ice off the windshield of the van on saturday morning.

it was one last night. tonight it’s going to be warmer, that is, 28. it scares me, thinking that TWENTY EIGHT is WARMER. it doesn’t bode well for the winter.

maybe the ice and snow will melt and that’s all we’ll have all winter.

maybe maybe maybe.

i’m doing my show in less than four weeks. i must finish writing it. four weeks tonight, it’ll be all over. that’s slightly startling to think about it, since i haven’t even finished writing it yet.

focus.

i could be at home writing right now, but randy had us over for dinner and he thought it would be a good idea to watch the billboard music awards. he knows what all the music awards are and who all the people on the awards are. and i don’t. so i snuck in here to write, instead.

what if i can’t think of an ending to my show?

back to TV.

ok then,

monday grace.



Dec. 01, 2006
snow snow snow  -  @ 12:34 pm

i’m having a bit of trouble focusing on doing just one thing today. i was going to say “this morning,” but somehow the morning has slipped by.

lots and lots of snow. kevin went to “nutcracker” rehearsal fairly early, and i went out and trudged to the mailbox and hit at it with the rose trimmer that i used just two days ago, in order to un-freeze it.

i was going to go work out, i was going to go buy a christmas gift - but the snow has been blowing a lot and there were piles and piles in the driveway, so instead i decided to shovel.

can’t find the shovel. i know we have a shovel, and i thought that shoveling would be good exercise at at least it’s bright and sunny and the snow just makes everything that much brighter - but no shovel.

instead i came inside and cleaned a little, always feeling virtuous if i do that. virtuous me.

but the time is rushing forward much too quickly and i still want to mop the kitchen floor because lately it’s more like a park-like covering instead of linoleum. too many twigs and too much dirt and stuff, it’s really really bad. and i want to write a little bit more of my script because i thought of something i want to include, and i want to put up some xmas decorations because i’m sick of the boxes lying around on the kitchen floor (but at least they do cover some of the dirt) and i want to make some fig bars.

but first, most importantly, i need to put up some more photos of hawaii, to remember that somewhere it’s warm and sunny and lush and gorgeous.

we went to the kailauea lighthouse, and this is one view from the lookout across from the place.

water

the water is just so dazzling.

and here’s the lighthouse itself.

kailauea

me at the lighthouse.

grace lighthouse

we thought this sign was very funny.

sign

the next thing we did on this day was drive to hanalei. like in “puff the magic dragon, lived by the sea, frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called hanalei.” WE WENT TO THE ACTUAL PLACE, HANALEI. we have a few photos of the place, it’s very beautiful, and next time i’ll put them up.

meanwhile, a few photos of NYC, this was the day before the parade when we went to the natural history museum and then to the street outside where they were blowing up the balloons.

scooby doo

snoopy

kevin took some photos during the very very wet parade, but those, too, must wait, because i have MUCH TO DO RIGHT NOW!

i hope your friday is warm and dry and free from skidding and spinning out.

ok then,

grace.
