Back in the Full Circle Saddle?

So, here I am so behind the times again! I did go to whitehorse, I did have a fabulous time. The most important shout out, if I were the sort of person who gave those, would have to go to Mr. Heavner for being so compelling in his arguments for going, but it was a team effort and Kirsa and Adrienne are no slackers, believe you me- this post feels oddly ancient, and I have that weird sensation, kind of like in a dream, that I'm calling everyone by their not right name. Oh how strange.. how about tomorrow, I try super hard to post a short white horse round up- or not, so much time flies, and if i were to post catch ups than there would be no chance of me posting anything new on time... whatever... If you feel deprived check out kirshark.blogspot.com for good coverage and nice pictures, and then click over to matt's page, i think it's on the top of her links, for a couple of more dog pics.
All is well in the Juneau Kingdom.. another week gets past me all too soon- a math test coming up that I have to study, A bio and history test handed back already that were both satsifactory- and all in all, niceness in life.
I worked all day today at Full Circle, hence the title... and even though it was an oddly long day compared to past experience, it was still very enjoyable- this despite being nauseous and acidic in my tum, and sleepy in my brain... there is something that is just so enjoyable about moving boxes that are waxy and cool from refrigeration, covered with organic dirt... sorting sacks of tatoes, observing the nuances in different stages of yam rot.. it's a happy making sort of job, and the people there are just so nice and friendly and fun to work with, it really blows your mind a little.. nice to know such places exist- there was a bigwig up from seattle and we got free lunch at chan's kitchen, cherry on top of the day! AND it was seriously, one of the most beautiful days that I've seen in forever, triple cherry on top!!! sunshine, blue skies, makes me think my parents will get their customary non juneau weather when they come up to visit... which is soon, so I have that to look forward to as well!
To tuck all that in, I'm twitterpated- which is fun and yet distracting?
Lastly, I will bid a good evening with these two discoveries I made about veggies and fruits today-

Blue Potatoes: WOW!!! they are seriously blue and have an "awesome radial pattern like a starbursting" inside of them. I'm talking like purple holmes, check these out for real!
and Blood Oranges: Ok, so I'm late to this party, but who cares?! Delicious! And bloody! No, really just a lovely shade of juice that is ruby and that word for a shade of red that starts with a (c), damn, can't remember... anyway, check it out.
Both are: Colorful, Delicious, and Fun.

Ok, the last one was a lie, now i really will say goodnight- but also did you know today was fat tuesday and tomorrow starts lent?! What should I give up for 40 days? I don't know! I guess if I don't know what I should give up by instinct, then it might be a bit harder to stick to. I'll let you know if i pick something.
