My elderly neighbor just died. I honestly thought he'd be around a lot longer. Maybe another two years, for all that he was becoming so frail. He fell and hit his head while no one was there to catch him in time. A few hours later he died in the hospital of blood clots in the brain. The last couple of years were pretty bad. He honestly should have ( Read more... )

This weekend was a blast, but I am so tired of driving. I went to Austin for toobing on the Comal. It was fab, then I went to Ft. Worth to crash... at that point I know I had more caffeine than blood. Then I drove home, briefly on my way to Nacogdoches. Needless to say, my oil needs changing, good thing I bought the metal filter... it took two days ( Read more... )

As per usual, there is nothing happening in nowheresville. I'm happily dying my hair and sorting through heaps and gobs of random craft things. On the upside, I found my exacto knife and favorite knife edge scissors, on the down side- there appears to be bits of half done projects strewn out in a bunch of different boxes. This calls for Coke, ( Read more... )

I sooo don't want to drive to the nacaplex and fill out paperwork and find advisors. I'm delaying. It's true. I know it has to be done and I'm stalling. I hate trying to get an advisor. They gave me the run arounds on the phone for hours before, wasting cell minutes and frustrating me to pieces. *joy* Maybe Em will have advice? Call me!

So, in avoidance of actual cleaning and/or organizing, I decided to start this oddball of a sewing projects. Here's hoping it goes well. Right now I could be in College Station, always a good time, or I could be at Stacy's, with rum... but no. A certain someone made with the threats and blew up this afternoon. Goddess only knows why. I still have ( Read more... )

non commital noises are the best way to effectively communicate with the public. And frustrate them at the same time. Two in one. I love life.

I hate work. People, it is a social gaffe to haggle in a respectable store with the poor hourly workers. We can't dock the prices, we don't have that kind of status. Snarking at the edgy girly with really, really, very, sharp scissors does not help. On the upside of this mess, I have found that smiling while fantazing about cutting pieces out of ( Read more... )

Well, things are kinda odd around here, but then I've always sworn there is a vortex of wierd close by. Mom is stuck in Florida. She randomly decided to go visit friends there. She's fine, but kinda stuck because of the roads. Dad is thrilled, he gets to cheat on his diet. Everything is the fridge is now either beef, pork, or chicken. Even worse, ( Read more... )
