I feel panicked and lazy at the same time.  I still have lots of projects to do, but none of them have a deadline.  A couple projects for the Retina Center, some sewing, some knitting, some cleaning and organizing, etc.  But I just want to read my latest book, The Know-It-All.  I feel very blah.  Starting school will be a very good thing for me. <\/p>\n<p>With my Everyday Food magazine I have a tasty menu planned, with fresh ingredients in my fridge from Sunflower Markets.  We&#8217;re going to eat:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>BBQ pork giant baked sandwich (finished off leftovers from last week)<\/li>\n<li>Feta and Israeli couscous salad<\/li>\n<li>Two pea pasta<\/li>\n<li>Chicken paella<\/li>\n<li>Artichoke and parsley linguini<\/li>\n<li>Thai chicken with noodles.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Hmm.  A lot of pasta in there.  So much for cutting back on carbs this week. <\/p>\n<p>We had a quiet weekend.  We watched Grosse Point Blank on Friday after I had dance class.  Saturday Ben went to a pinball expo while I knit and watched episodes of The Office on hulu.com.  (I realized that the Office is MUCH funnier now that I don&#8217;t work IN an office.  It was too close to home.)  After lunch (grilled cheese and tomato soup, tuna for Ben) we went to Sur La Table to spend a gift card (I finally have a garlic peeler!).  A quick jaunt though Whole Foods provided a nice snack what with all their free samples.  For dinner we went to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.virgiliospizzeria.com\/\">Virgilio&#8217;s<\/a> with Brian.  We finished off the evening watching Battlestar Galactica and Doctor Who.<\/p>\n<p>More of the same this week.  I&#8217;m going to trivia tonight and dance class tomorrow.  Wednesday is orientation day for school.  I get to meet my classmates and teachers, tour the campus, buy some more supplies, and hopefully get all my lingering questions answered.  I can&#8217;t wait to start!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is my last week of being home alone all day. I feel panicked and lazy at the same time.
