blues clues macaroni-n-cheese

i saw what blues clues macaroni-n-cheese looks like for the first time today.
the blue part of the blues clues is really, really blue. very scary, blue noodles. they looked like pieces of blue plastic mixed in with the macaroni. my friend was pouring in the orange cheese, and i was simply DYING to see what the blue macaroni looked like when it was covered with orange cheese, even more weird and disgusting, maybe?
but unfortunately, i had to go. i'm not sure why i didn't stick around to see the color of the blue blues clues macaroni, with added cheese. it makes me feel that i must rush out and buy some for myself, except that seems like too much trouble.
blues clues macaroni. who was in charge of that idea? did they get a bonus, for saying, "hey, let's make some of the blues clues macaroni ACTUALLY BLUE COLORED." and then everybody looked at the person, let's call her Myrtle, and they all nodded their heads and went, "yeah, blue!" and did Mytrle then get a raise for thinking of this actual blue macaroni in the blues clues macaroni-n-cheese idea?
why do children like blue food, that's what i'm asking you here.

tax day winding down

thank god. i sent in my HUGE CHECKS to the government, and i feel so much better now that it's done. i had to do even more math at the last minute this morning; that must be why i'm so tired right now. i could have bought a (really cheap and crappy) car with that money. i could have bought a laptop AND a regular - is that the right word? standard? desktop? - computer, and a nice printer. or maybe one of those printer/copier/fax machine/scanner/pants presser combo things.
but it doesn't matter now; like i said, it's done and i don't have to think about it for another year.
except i have to think about it in june, when i have to pay a big pile of estimated tax payments. if anybody can ever explain to me WHY you have to pay your "quarterly" tax payments in april, june, sept. and january, i'd sure like to know. my dad said, "you're dealing with the federal government here, grace," as though i should be satisfied with the realization that there's no logical explanation for it.
it doesn't matter. it's only money. it's spring, the grass is green, the flowers are blooming, the air is warm.
life is good.
at least that's what i typed as my start-up message for my cell phone. to remind myself.
kind of a silly concept when you think of it, isn't it, a start-up message for your cell phone?
i could go on and on about the other things in modern life that could have a start-up message on them, like whatever happened to talking cars, have people been getting talking cars and i don't know about it? but i must sleep now so as to avoid (complete) delirium.
ok then,

p.s. maybe my blog rule (can you have blog rules? i still don't fully grasp the whole blog concept, and who thought up that stupid name anyway, i think it's very ugly and unattractive, both) should be that you can only write here when you're very tired. but no, that's a stupid rule, never mind, i don't really want to write when i'm tired, but something compells my fingers to keep typing over the keyboard. GO TO SLEEP RIGHT NOW, MISS SMITH.
maybe a blog rule should be not to have such long blogs.

and there are so very very many creative things that i want to be doing right now, but i had to spend so much time on last-minute tax nightmares that i may just go to sleep. i'm not a last-minute person in any respect. i'm a get-it-done-really-early kind of person, usually. i'm not sure how this tax thing came about, except that i've been putting it off because i knew i was going to owe a whole bunch of money. and i was right, in spades, and so now not only do i owe a lot of money, but i have very little time left to do my final calculations. and math has always been my worst subject. i could tell you exactly where in my life the whole math-worst-subject thing came to be, but then i'd be sitting here typing when i should be sleeping or doing my taxes.
ok then,
