One more hour. Got the okay from Jess earlier today to meet her at The Corner tonight when she gets off shift. I can't stand to be stuck any longer in this apartment dealing with every minor disaster so time to make Josh do it. Now I just need to decide whether or not to push myself, or to just give in and bring my crutches with me. At least I'll ( Read more... )

When we got our Taurus a couple of months back, it unfortunately came with crappy tires that now need to be replaced. More to make sure I know what not to get, I looked up most of the common tires I will find that fit my car and found the Kumho ECSTA DX Aroma. The frigging thing has lavender scented blackwalls. It claims that the tire is "designed ( Read more... )

My children are mini Houdinis. Galen can get out of his carrier and Rachel can get out of...well, anything. She just wormed her way under the childgate that Josh had put up in the hallway. I guess that's an improvement though as she usually climbs over the gates ( Read more... )

I'm awake. Still. Since Sunday morning I think...or something like that. In my never-ending wisdom I decided a pepsi would be a good thirst-quencher this morning. So now I'm awake - and hyped on caffeine. Great. Time to play Warcraft then. But wait, I logged in 12 minutes after the realms went down for the next 8 hours. Argh. Granted, I could cure ( Read more... )

Anything that can go wrong, will-at the worst possible moment. Well, life hasn't ceased to exist or anything, but I still feel like that law is in effect in my daily life. Hopefully I can get my laundry done without any problems though...Crutches+laundry hamper+stairs doesn't usually equal success.

Well, here's randomness for you: List of adages ( Read more... )

Since it's most definitely past midnight in the eastern time zone, I'm just going to have to assume that my father doesn't give a shit. I know I wouldn't be so upset about this if I didn't still care about him, but that just makes me even more pissed off about the whole thing. *sigh* At least I got a happy birthday out of my stepfather and father- ( Read more... )

Last month I was admitted to Crestwood to have my ankle fused. It sucks. I'd rather forgotten how much pain surgery causes...especially when stupid nurses slam rolling trays into your ankle. The second day I was at Crestwood, Josh stopped in and told me that one of the disabled customers at WH had gotten his foot stuck under the brake and had the ( Read more... )

And once again, Josh's wake-up call this morning was a bad phone call. Julia Wise died this morning at 12:50 of leukemia. Granted we knew it was likely to happen, but that really doesn't lessen the blow of someone you know dying.

Merry Chirstmas everyone and hopefully you won't have to deal with all of the bitchy people channeling the spirit of Scrooge this year.
