I think that I have SDD: Sleep Deficit Disorder. My mind NEVER shuts down! I was up until nearly 3am thinking about sewing aprons. APRONS! Some people worry about finding a cure for cancer or fixing the hole in the ozone layer. I spend endless amounts of time planning out the apron that I'm going to make for Tie One On. This isn't even the same apron that I posted about yesterday. Nope. I've been wanting to participate in the monthly apron challenges but have been too busy with other stuff until now. So yesterday I went on their site to see what the current challenge is. I had planned on incorporating it into the apron that I was already making but then I realized that I couldn't because the challenge is to make an apron out of clothing in your closet. I wanted to buy new fabric so that killed that... Or so I thought. Somewhere in between resting my head on the pillow and closing my eyes I remembered the fabulous muumuu that I have hanging in my closet and the little rat in my head jumped onto her trusty wheel and started running. Next thing you know I'm trying to figure out the best way to use the killer fabric, how to design the apron and if it was technically ok to put in fabric that I have in my "waiting to be crafted" fabric box. I want to be normal. I want to sleep like normal people. It's just not within my reach. Ever.
On another note, Bruno and I will be planning out our detox diets today. They won't actually start until Saturday but I have promised him that I would set aside time to work out the details today. We are going to go to the bookstore and look at a billion recipe books until we find just the right one to follow up the detox with healthier meals than McDonald's and Burger King. Then we are off to Whole Foods to put our checking account in the red.
The detox diet itself won't require too much preparation. Basically, Bruno is going to eat nothing but apples for two days. He can eat any kind of apple he wants and as many as he wants, but nothing other than apples is allowed. I, on the other hand, am allergic to red things (I swear to god!) and so the apple diet isn't an option for me. Sure, I could eat green apples but they're just too sour for my taste. And no good without cheese. So I have to find a different detox diet. My aromatherapist said that I could do an all veggie diet where I eat nothing but raw vegetables for two days. That sounds good to me. Now I just have to find the largest selection of vegetables known to mankind so that I don't feel too deprived. I live around the corner from a wonderful market that has just such a selection but unfortunately they had some kind of chemical spill the other day (or fire?) and the health department shut them down until they clean up the mess. So Whole Foods it is. I hope that this doesn't suck too bad. Ah! The things that we will do just to get pregnant!
