Erk!
I'm naming my new car "Miss Piggy" because she squeals with joy (new belts still making noise) whenever the frog (me) starts her up.
But that's okay. I still love her. Even if she's noisy and embarassing. -
home reno update
Finally done plastering and sanding the walls. My lungs are aching from all the dust I inhaled, even with the mask on. And I probably should have worn a kerchief over my hair. It feels gross even after washing it twice.
Tomorow I'll start the painting and next weekend I'm pulling up the floor. The fun never stops in this house! -

We shared the crab rangoon, some pink wine, papaya salad and then I had the Paradise beef. I've ate all those foods before and never had a problem. ( Read more... ) -
F*%#ing Caffeine
Went to see the Town Pants at Slaintes last night. They were great, as usual. The show finished around quarter to 2am but we left the bar much later. I bought a cd, had it signed by the uber hawt fiddler (it's her solo cd) and Goob had to get his t-shirt signed by the whole band. It took a while and we didn't get home till nearly 4am. I needed ( Read more... ) -
Done with winter...
I'm definitely over this whole "snow" thing. And the ice can go too.
I haven't updated this thing since I got back from New York. I've been busy (doing nothing).
Let's see, quick recap, I went shopping for a new car with tradesman's help. We found a few suitable cars but his dad decided he could find me a cheaper one. Great! I'm not going to ( Read more... ) -
Happy girl
Despite the fact that I'm home alone on a saturday night.... or maybe because of that fact..... anyhoo
I've got NIN blaring on the stereo.There's a bucket of cold chicken and a few beers in my fridge, in the process of being transfered into mah belly. I went car shopping today with much help from tradesman. We were quasi-successful. There are 3 ( Read more... )
