Georgia on my mind

Its a gloomy Saturday.  Still only 14 lbs lost......so chose to scarf 3 peanut butter cookies.  Sigh.  I'm a sucker for warm cookies.  My sheets are in the wash - so I can't really nap.  I have an assignment due yesterday - and since late is late....what the hell, update the blog right?

Its 4:30 and I'm still in my jammies, but wearing my beret to add some class.  Have a tea.....put the cookies on a plate for dessert with mayan chocolate ice cream.  A sad limp chicken is waiting to be transformed into a culinary opus.  I cleaned the fridge today....that alone was worth one cookie.....

Wanted to share the sights of Atlanta today. Now that my bout with scurvy has passed, I feel I may have forgiven the city somewhat, and I am now emotionally capable of sharing.  So heres a few nifty excerpts from the trip.  As I've mentioned, I was really there for the aquarium, but fortunately - the residential elite have given me plenty of material.......and I got to use the aquarium setting on my camera....





 I found this hairdo quite indicative of Atlantas elite.  How the heck do they do it?

Once finally in the aquarium, we were first greeted by scads of starfish that were by and large - PINK

You have to look carefully, but all of the natural coral in this tank is mobbed with yellow seahorses....which as you all know, are my favourite.

This is an anemone.....when you touch it....all of the little tendrils suck in.  Their pretty squishy and about the size of cantaloupe.

These lion fish are pretty decent

I thought these guys were rocks.  Don't they look like a happy couple?

This was just an eerie exhibit......but fun fish eh?

This is a whale shark.....do we this Joe-Photog with his i-phone was able to capture the moment?

Note the i-phone activity....it was wild.  Its the new mode of capturing the moment......I'll stick with my camera thanks very much :)

After the aquarium visit, we did the wonderful world of coke.  I tasted 68 coke products from across the world.  One did taste like shoepolish, but I won't be at a drive thru in Germany any time soon, so no risk of reexposure.  Granted, I have never really tried shoepolish.  I have rinsed with blue clearasil before......

This place is uber saturated in all things commercial Coke

They are very big on displaying every artisan Coke brand vessel known to man.....these are bottles from around the world.  Blogger is experiencing photo upload difficulty....so I'll have to do a part 2 one day.

On the subway home - burnt out an beleaguered I asked myself an age old question....why do the asians wear white socks with EVERYTHING????

So thats where I have to leave it today....I have to go back to my domestic duties.......

More on the new job tomorrow.....
