Tasty

Well, today was much better.

Aside from the fact I slept maybe five hours total last night. That's less hours than I worked today. Ugh.

My Mother came over and cooked me crab cakes with corn. It was delicious. She also presented me with a bottle of Gnarly Head Cabernet, so that was nice. We talked about books, and how she's amazed that she likes any book I recommend to her. (Harry Potter, Hunger Games). I introduced her to His Dark Materials, she didn't get the concept, but I think she'll like it. She usually likes sappy stories or lawyer stories or murder mysteries or something. Bleh. As much as I love the criminal justice system, I cannot stand books about it. I'd rather documentaries.

Speaking of nerd.

I downloaded Netflix on the PS3 yesterday. The first thing I watched was a documentary on solitary confinement about inmates. It was fascinating, yet strangely depressing. The people who spent 13 years in solitary forgot basic social skills and couldn't interact with large crowds of people anymore. One guy, after being release from prison, attacked a random guy in a store because he thought the dude was following him. He really wasn't, but it was just the crowds of people and the stress it brought just made him snap. And a lot of people develop social disorders because of solitary confinement.

So fascinating!

And, I didn't know America was one of the only countries left that actually supported solitary confinement.

Still fascinating!

Annnnd, end /nerd.

Tomorrow Mom, sister, and I are looking at wedding shoes. Sounds interesting, right? Shopping and shoes... not my two favorite things.

I'm probably going to pick some flats. Because we all know I'm clumsy in anything over an inch of height in heels. Ooh boy.
