I'm so in love with knitting! It calms my nerves and makes me feel like I'm doing SOMETHING when I knit and veg out in front of the T.V. Watching the tube is rare these days so when I plop down to watch L&O re-runs I feel so lazy and unproductive. Knitting or crafting in general (I'm starting to love to embroider now too) makes me feel like I'm ( Read more... )

Whoa...look at me, making a comeback on tax day! It's been a long time since I've updated but I've been having a hard time adjusting to my new environment and the new people I'm surrounded by.

I'm okay with going for that smudgey smokey look, but if you've obviously slept on makeup and crawled out of bed to work, you should be told to go home. I have to renew my passport and so my first stop was to get my ( Read more... )

Ever since school got out I've been trying to get a job, but most of the places I've checked out have all they need for the summer, even in retail! With no job and no money I've been reading non stop lately and d/ling a lot of music and catching up on movies I haven't seen in ages ( Read more... )
