Ugly T Shirts Revisted, Youth Court Revisted and Recipes for the First Time

As you may [but aren't required to] remember, back in October of last year I participated in a History convention for a bunch of antiquidated history buffs, or as we know them, history teachers. At this shindig, the helpers [I hate to use the word aids in this case] recieved [free of charge] that year's convention long sleeved T-shirt, complete with McGraw-Hill text book company logo and a bucking bronco with couwboy on back. Really, we were all aghast at having to wear the grisly things. Since then, the group that has the Ts sporadically has planned ugly T-shirt days. Today was one of them. You see, if one of us were to wear the shirt it would just look like we had bad taste and jaundice. BUT! If an entire group of us wore them, we'd have moral support. Call it Ugly Ts Anonymous.

Being a Thursday, I was sorely tempted to skip UTA day and do Dress Up Thursday instead. However, I didn't want to strand my fellow UTAers and leave them high centered in the stream. I figured that I couldn't switch horses half way up the mountain. Because of this, I wore my ugly T-shirt, and looked [from the words of my friend] "frumpy and unattractive." The price I pay for group support. Seeing also that it was Thursday, my favorite day of the week, I had the chance to participate in Youth Court again, and this time I got my job back as clerk, and I raqed it. Yeah. As I though. Mm hmm. No really. It was amazing. [: Sans the chirospasm. {: Love community service. Which leads perfectly into that I missed the induction meeting for Honor Society [why I was at Youth Court, acrueing service hours], but didn't really miss it. So sad. :D

News flash [I think?]: Mel's gone vegetarian. It's rather enjoyable, except for trying to find amazingly interesting recipes that don't call for tofu. I'm not that far into it yet. But maybe someday I'll get there. Anywho, if you have any amazing veg recipes, shout them out to me! :D Cheers.

  1. I went vegetarian for Lent, I figured it was a good time to try...and I loved it! I found that it is actually quite easy to go without meat. Whenever I have a craving, I just grab a veggie burger. I am now in the midst of trying to get my parents to agree to let me stay vegetarian. So good luck, and I hope you find it easy!

  2. [: Oh cool! How is that coming? I mean the convincing of the rents and all. I hope it works out! And yeah, tonight as I was making dinner for my rents I cooked up some chicken for them, and I flavored it perfectly, but I didn't really want to eat any of it. So, I'm thinking beans and rice tonight. :D
