So my first vehicle is now sitting in my yard--a 1992 Mazda Navajo. There's something wrong with the transmission, it really needs a new drivers side door, I'm going to need new bumper parts, the back windshield wiper doesn't work. I'm seriously in love with it. Honestly. The things that need to be fixed aren't anything my dad and I can't ( Read more... )

Have I ever mentioned that I love cooking? I know, it's such a Suzy Homemaker attitude, but how does a gal resist? I've decided to write a cookbook--attempt to at least, after that I'll go bother microcosm publishing more than likely, they publish a lot of great little stuff. The experiments have been fun, and now I'm hardly following any ( Read more... )

As probably very few of you know so far, we're starting a band, and still searching for that elusive fourth member that will make our ensemble complete. It's a project, a big experiment, to see if four people that can't play insturments, and can't sing--basically people with no formal music training can reach some level where people admire them ( Read more... )

So today is Will's birthday, and he has to work, but I had to work on mine too, so...*shrugs*. I guess it's all part of being a young adult, the special days aren't so special. I can see it now, when we try to take time off for the wedding...blegh. Anyway, since we have tomorrow off, we're going to go to the zoo for his b-day! And Kelly and her ( Read more... )

It's the holiday season. Yay. Ok, not really yay, the whole world goes nuts this time of year and the only thing about this that I actually enjoy is that it will be coming to an end soon. Having five dogs is starting to get to me, mostly because one of the boys isn't neutered and one of the girls is in heat. It means, esentially, that I have to ( Read more... )

Ok, the actual date for the wedding has been decided now. We are not waiting till 2008 because we know it's unlikely that we'll even be able to afford a honeymoon, so no point in putting it off for a big one. I may work at the Disney store for a short stint in order to get free tickets to Disney World, then we'll scrape enough together for a ( Read more... )

You know, I just can't catch onto the whole myspace thing. I mean, it's ok, but it's overly trendy, and I'm just not a stylish person. I almost never post there because I don't like the hassle--I like the flow of LJ. lol I wanted t ostay away for the bad memories, as I once did with the castle, but the days past are the ones I look foward to ( Read more... )

But this is downright appalling, not only an outrage to those of us who are all for animal rights, but also to those who are members of the GLBT community ( Read more... )
