Hope everyone is making it through the holidays and the economic fun with at least a few shreds of sanity still intact ( Read more... )

You know... it's kinda sad. And, sadly, I'm not too surprised... *sigh*

1. My parents have DSL. I've been spoiled by cable. DSL sucks monkey nuts.

2. Got to hang out with agent_770 last night...got a fabulous massage...I still feel really relaxed... thanks, D! I definitely needed that ( Read more... )

YAY!! I just got an appointment for an eye exam for this coming Wednesday!

I'm so excited...I haven't gotten new glasses in SO long... and I'll be able to itch my vanity with new contacts too! (I miss seeing my face...glasses just seem to always get in the way...)

Okay...so the thigh-highs are a bust...big runner, very sad.

    and this horrible divide.
Like standing at the canyon's edge...
You're on the other side,
    and I don't know how you got there
    or how to bring you back.
I feel like I've been calling to you,
    but all that comes back is an echo.
It's lonely here,
    hearing only my own voice and the wind.

I wish I could fly.

Me! Woohoo!

The kitchen is clean, from top to bottom (well, okay...organization still needs to happen, but things are clean)... Furniture was moved, and the floor was cleaned, the walls were scrubbed. Everything's shiny :)

There's a great deal of satisfaction in scrubbing the kitchen floor by hand (no mops...just a scrub brush, hot-n-soapy water, and ( Read more... )
