Nerding out on Forms, Folds and Sizes

10 Jul

Is it sad that I’ve been dreaming of lunch all morning? When you have exciting leftovers, lunch can be really exciting.

My mom asked me whether this upset my stomach because it seems to have red sauce. Surprisingly, it did not. There is actually a can of tomatoes in this sauce, but Bill removed all the large parts. I had a slight case of heartburn last night (which is usual) but no earth-shattering stomach pains. I developed that problem when I was a teen, and I sort of wonder if it’s possible that it went away? I do know that I still have trouble with any sort of spicy food.

I wasn’t sure if this would fill me up completely, so I brought some extra snacks for the afternoon.

Crackers:

Hummus:

And an apple:

All together now.

So, I have been totally nerding out on this book I borrowed from my professor. She’s actually my coworker as well, so I swiped this book from her book shelf (with her permission of course). I’ve just skimmed a few pages and can’t wait to dive in tonight:

I really need to use this for my book project! It involves a lot of folding!

Special thanks to everyone who commented on my video this morning. Per Leslie’s suggestion, I think I am going to remove the opening bit and save that for something else. More to come on that project next week!

Question: What do you “nerd out” on?

Question for MALE READERS: Who are you, and where are you from? I know I have at least two male readers out there – Bill and Jordan. I also think my ex-boyfriend reads from time to time. Anyway, if you’re a male and you’re reading, please delurk and tell me about yourself!

    Hey Rose,

    Male reader here, so I guess that makes 3 (and counting). I’m Nate. I’m from Charlotte. I think you already know these things. Okay, back to lurking now.

    oh, I nerd out on so many things it’s ridiculous.

    musicals

    grammar and syntax! I’m such a geek when it comes to this stuff. I took a syntax class in college and fell. in. love. I think Nick thought twice about marrying me at that point.

    I think my dad and husband are my only male readers!

    love the nice leftovers :)

    I dream about going home and making my dinner almost everyday! So no, I don’t think it’s sad :)

    I totally nerd out on books about African and Caribbean culture. I got into it in college and never stopped the nerding.

    I haven’t gotten a chance to watch the video yet but I will soon!
