Whoops

So..blogs are about honesty and, to be honest, I've been avoiding an update...ONLY because I have so much to update about!
First off, I am an idiot. I was out eating sushi at Osaka, a local restaurant I might add, and BARBARA KINGSOLVER WALKS IN! How ironic and fateful is that? I read Poisonwood Bible in AP English, and now I am doing this blog project on Animal, Vegetable, Miracle and she walks in to Osaka on a Sunday night at 6:48. Crazy! What's crazier? Me, the girl who loves to meet new people and strike up conversation, said NOTHING! i DIDN'T EVEN INTRODUCE MYSELF!! That is so so unlike me. I Honestly couldn't sleep that night.
There was,however, a method behind my temporary insanity. I have heard multiple times that while in public, she likes to go totally unnoticed. Kingsolver likes to be seen as a normal citizen(although normal citizens don't have teenage girls blogging about them like crazed fanboys). To be honest, I was terrified of offending her or having her mistake my admiration for hype. No one in the restaurant knew her from Adam, or Eve for that matter. Osaka was quiet that night and to get up and walk to her table would have been ridiculously ostentatious(other side of the room) and awkward...but that has never stopped me before! I was concerned, though, that by doing this, she would draw the unnecessary attention she prefers to evade. I was also dressed extremely unprofessionally and frumpy, so my self confidence was inhibited from that too. I had almost mustered the courage, when family friends walked in and swarmed the table, consequently, making me late for my movie.
I suppose that it just wasn't meant to be :(
Oh, by the way, beef maufactucturers recalled nearly 900,000 beef products today due to E.coli. E. Coli by the way, is caused by the excess of corn cattle are fed to fatten them up for quick slaughter. Corn is the cheapest feed available. Cows, however, are not meant to eat corn. That is the equivalent of a human eating hay. Their bodies cannot process the corn and it poisons their blood stream.
Organic and local. It matters.
