up, up and away!

hoping that our mail server at work would be fixed by this morning (actually, i totally forgot it was broken, but it was six a.m.), i dutifully emailed my nanaimo bar recipe to myself in order that i could post it today. unfortunately, the technical difficulties have their own agenda. if i remember after the dentist and before the biscotti making experiment, i will try to post it tonight, complete with a photo of what the finished product should look like. someone i've been emailing for a short while told me that my writing style is like that of jack kerouac's. having never read anything of his, despite being told that on the road is required reading for twenty-something hipsters (i'm neither twenty-something nor a hipster, so it stands to reason), i can't tell if it was a lovely compliment or a subtle dig. was he calling me pretentious? probably not, but there is a small possibility of which i'm choosing to ignore utterly in my most pollyanna of manners. today, i'm going to try to make pretty web things for work. i don't often get a chance to make pretty web things due to the daily drudgery of being a human scanner. i think this is a good time for me to be making pretty web things. i'm oddly inspired to create at the present. i'm liking the making of the prose and the making of the cookies and even the making of the photographs. i'll even be completing the making of the secret art exchange items this weekend, which i'm really rather excited about. all right, that's enough talking. time to start the doing. happy hump day!
