foo fighters - up in arms

today, i skinned a pig.
seriously. we took the scissors, cut a slit from the chin to tail, then used a blunt object to rip all the skin away from the muscles. and let me tell you, once you've taken the skin off something, it gets really slimey. i'm looking forward to working on killer some more on friday.
other than that, today was beautiful. i was walking over to michelle's, and i wish i'd taken a picture. all the cherry trees are in full pale-pink bloom, and the sky was filled with dark, rain-filled clouds. the air felt warm, like the sun had been shining all day. the houses seemed to be reflecting the sun that wasn't there, and the overall effect was.. beautiful. living in a hole like i do, it was even more impressive because the entire skyline was bordered with trees.
my mother wants brent to come with me to elaina's. umm.. my aunt doesn't exactly have enough room to house 3 extra kids, thanks. plus i just don't want him to go, even if it ends up being just me.
