good veins and a documentary:::




ahhhh.....tuesday. the day of fresh music. and--inevitably--a trip to target. after my scheduled massage this afternoon was cancelled, i took my time getting ready. i sipped my pomegranate vitamin juice. i listened to michael buble's latest offering. checked my e-mail. then i headed out to purchase the much anticipated new john mayer release.

and can i tell you-- i am not disappointed. john's sound changes ever-so-slightly with each record. and i would have to assess that--in comparison to continuum (his previous album) this one is lighter. perhaps not in content, but definitely in sound. and i'm not even going to lie about how much i love his duet with taylor swift. i must also admit that, while looking at the cover, i realized how much being a nurse has changed my outlook. i actually rolled my eyes at myself when the first thing i noticed was how easy it would be to start an IV on john's fabulous veins. (bet he's never heard that compliment before...)

as i was exiting the "entertainment" aisles, i saw the documentary "food inc.", and immediately tossed it into my basket. i've been aching to see this film. since i made the decision to be vegetarian (which has been a few months now!!) i've been extremely conscious of, not only what i put into my body, but the source of it. from what i've heard, this documentary is an eye-opening look into the world of food collection and processing. i can't wait to curl up with a mug of coffee this afternoon and watch it.

here's to a fabulous tuesday...

  1. I keep hearing about this amazing John Mayer album! I'm going to have to check it out!

    Someday, could you share more about becoming a vegetarian? Do you feel differently? Better?

    Hope you have a wonderful day!!! xo

  2. I drove by Target today debating if I should go in or not since I had just gone to the bank. But I resisted...this time! Oddly enough I haven't heard anything from his new album yet. I guess I'm waiting on a special moment like driving in a friends car or a road trip to hear it.
    Happy Tuesday!

  4. ohh, I'll have to make an itunes purchase tonight! I forgot that came out! I saw it on the pre-order list last week and my mental note was lost somewhere along the way :) Thanks for the reminder! I can't wait to have a listen!

    How is your conversion to vegetarianism going btw? I remember you posting about it before. That always really interests me. I don't think I'm disciplined enough.

    I was a Hospital Corpsman for four years in the Navy + I have to say, I also have really fantastic veins. They're like giant blue pipes running through my arm. Firm, but bouncy. A great stick. ;)
