Vulcan Cutie.

Last night after I blogged, I sort of attacked my skin. Agh! I was feeling so tired and 'flimsy' and it just kind of happened. However, today I've been doing pretty good with my skin. No crazy picking episodes. Just my hands occasionally feeling around, trying to find something to pick at... (The skin on my face has been bothering me lately though... I really hope my cleanser is still working...)

Haha, ok. So today I modified a waffle recipe by making Cardamom 'Yogurt' Waffles (with bananas, blueberries, a dollop of sour cream, and maple syrup on top) and a pitcher of unsweetened green tea for my mom. (Actually I made the green tea mostly for myself, but everyone else was still allowed to have some.) After eating our breakfast, we gave her her presents. My dad gave her pretty flowers in two large, colorfully polka-dotted teacup and saucer planters. The planters remind me of the Alice in Wonderland teacup rides in Disneyland. I think my dad said he found them in Wal-Mart (of all places) by accident. As far as my gift... she loved the Starbuck's cup! It's an insolated cup that looks like their normal cups for iced drinks, except this one is made of sturdy polyurethane, or something like that. It also has a sturdy straw. It should last for years. Oh! And I gave her that gift card as well. I put it inside the cup along with some Easter grass for added color.

I saw Star Trek today with my family and boyfriend at the Harkin's Cine Capri at Tempe Marketplace. It was pretty awesome. Young Spock is cute. ;) I kind of think my boyfriend looks like Young Spock, actually. I really think that if my boyfriend had auditioned for Young Spock, he would have nabbed the role. But he's not in the movie so... I want him to be Young Spock for Halloween. :D

After the movie we ate at Great Steak & Potato Company which is also located in the Tempe Marketplace. I ordered something for my boyfriend then disappeared for a few minutes to order something from the next closest thing -- Paradise Bakery -- where I got a veggie sandwich, chocolate chip cookayyy, and an iced soy chai, then I walked back over to join my fam at the steak place. I really think she put milk in my chai though... damn her. (During my recent visit to Wildflower Bread Company, someone put skim instead of soy in my iced soy chai... I definitely yelled at that guy for nixing the soy. :)

Anyway, now I'm home safe and sound. Oh yeah, and I also wanted to mention I quickly did some intense yoga for 30-40 minutes before going to see that movie. I just wanted to make sure I felt confident about wearing jean shortshorts in public. (The shortshorts were worn at my boyfriend's request.)

Hmmm... my boyfriend is here right now at my house, sleeping on my bed. I'm pretty sure he has gas. His stomach is making all sorts of noises. Must be that cheesesteak he ate.

Oh... now he's awake. He's yawning, stretching, staring at me, and he just made a noise that sounded like "ehyithhk" or something...

OMG! He's still staring at me. He DOES look like Young Spock!

:D
