I had a whole post planned yesterday. Can't recall it now. Durn.

Some of it was:
- I know why kids traditionally do not like vegetables. Two words. SCHOOL LUNCHES. Only school cafeterias can make broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, and green beans taste EXACTLY the same, with the EXACT same texture. I was talking to a co-worker about this phenomenon in the office yesterday and a kid who was nearby piped up and said, "I like vegetables, but only raw." I like veggies prepared all sorts of ways, but I'd sure rather they served raw ones instead of steamed(boiled)-to-paste ones. Ew.

- My cupcake tattoo is my first that hasn't really been a huge deal. Even though I knew what I wanted, I got it on a whim. I haven't showed anyone at work, I haven't been staring at it. I mentioned it to my mom as a sidenote to something else I had said. ("Oh, Jackie," she said.) I love it, totally, but I'm not geeking out and flashing it to everyone. Which is what I usually do.

- SLEEPY. I would really like to hide out under my desk for a little nap.

I remember one of the other things I was going to say.

Was walking down the hall yesterday. Got a whiff of Body Fantasies Body Spray in White Musk. I may have mentioned this here before, but that stuff ALWAYS takes me back to the period in my life when I was trying to butch it up a little, 'cause I thought being queer meant I had to give up being girly. White Musk smelled more like cologne than perfume, at least to me, and that's probably why I wore it. I totally dressed only in t-shirts and carpenter jeans for a little while. And pride rings on a ball-chain necklace. And sherbet-colored, old men's button-up shirts.

Hahahahaha. Who was I fooling?

I remembered what is probably the last bit of the post I had planned out and then forgot.

There is going to be a Botero exhibit at the Delaware Art Museum! It starts in a couple of days! Botero is the dude whose paintings often feature awesome fatties making merry. Look him up! Really great stuff. Anyone wanna come to Wilmington for a visit and see it with me?

And I still need to get myself to the Frida Khalo exhibit in Philly. How much longer is it going?

There is a statewide initiative to improve health awareness among employees of the state. Basically, we get $100 if we fill out this online health survey and then get a biometric screening. I did my screening today.

Blood Pressure: 109/78 (Ideal is below 120/80.)
"Bad" Cholesterol: 151! (Should be under 200. The last time I got it done, maybe 3 yrs ago, it was 199.)
"Good" Cholesterol: 49 (Should be over 40.)
Glucose: 85, non-fasting. (Should be under 140.)

The dude who went over my results with me tried to throw me some shade about BMI and I was like, "Yeah, okay, whatever." Fat =/= inherently unhealthy and I consider my numbers Cold Hard Proof. I mean, supposedly I am OBESE which always makes me think Obtuse Beast. Fuck that! My body is THE BOMB.
