Adventures of one quarterlife crisis and a year-long trip around the world.
I cleaned out 73% of my computer last week… so this isn’t officially finished. Now I just need to backup some of my files, get rid of the beast of a monitor, and possibly use it as a media PC of sorts… to be continued I suppose. :(
My first issue of The Economist arrived last week! Officially my second favorite magazine (Wired is still #1). It’s a weekly magazine, so I’m still wondering if I’ll have [make] the time to read each one. They do have an audio version, so that should help. I’ll probably listen to it in the car. While I was reading this issue, I was thinking about how just like traveling to another country makes you realize how small the world is and that there’s so much outside of the US, magazines like The Economist are great to see news from a different perspective that’s not just hierarchical US news. Not ironically, The Economist is based out of London.
I unintentionally started off #56 while on vacation. I started with A Long Way Down by Nick Hornby. For some reason I thought this was the book full of short stories, but it ended up being about suicide. In hindsight I really don’t think a book about suicide is the lightest and most fun beach read, but it was still a good book, just not the best for Nick Hornby (or the beach). It’s one of those books that makes you think about how much the same everyone is, even if we all live in what looks like different worlds, at our core we all just want to matter.
I’m crossing all the easy stuff off my list first! #34 is officially done, and doesn’t require much explanation! I stocked up on the 5 for $25 PINK underpants. Although I love all the bright colors, their strategy of slowly shifting to capture the pre-teen market is kind of scary, but rather brilliant. And what’s with the creepy free stuffed animal? Is their next target market diapers for infants?
Monday… check! Tuesday… ugggh, I had to like, start over. Yeah…..
I had full intentions of not drinking coffee for 1 month, or maybe 1 week, but then I thought “why? I don’t really have a problem” ha! So maybe I’ll try this next summer, eh? I have a couple years to finish this whole list. :)
This will be an on-going “project,” but I finally found the updated list for 2007 (from Willamette Week). I’ve crossed out the few I’ve been to. After looking at this list I feel like I go to the same few restaurants over and over again… which is true. :) And now for something completely different!

I watched #08, Doctor Zhivago (Two-Disc Special Edition), last night. I thought it was going to be pretty cheesy, and it was, but something about it was just really good. It was sad, and predictable, and very 1965, but it makes you think about people and history, and how life is predictable and complicated and predictably complicated.
Only 31 more to go!
I stole this recipe from Martha Stewart and adapted as MINE! This is my absolute favorite cupcake recipe and I’m officially crossing #62 off my list. I’m also sticking to the list and taking a picture of it! :)
Prep work:
I strongly believe that all recipes should come with a “Warning!” section containing what you need to do before you begin. 1. Take the cream cheese out of the fridge, unless you’re planning on making the frosting waaay later. 2. Grate the carrots and set aside.
Ingredients
Makes 12 regular cupcakes (or 6 monster cupcakes, or 24 mini cupcakes)
Directions
Yums! The signature cupcake is now in my belly.
