this pic has me wanting to write fic so badly. but I know it can not end family friendly well, so I'm resisting. for now

( yummy, yummy )

So, I'm working on a project (the first made from several hundred dollars worth of beads I bought myself as retail therapy after the credit card fiasco) and I realize I need copper-colored jump rings. Lots and lots of them. I decided to start at Jo Anne's because they tend to have a decent (albeit not huge) selection and because, when they have ( Read more... )

i know i'm over-reacting. I can't help it. my pain-levels have been nuts with the weather lately, i've been dealing with a lot of conflicting directions from various superiors who have time to countermand each others orders but not to discuss policy with each other, and I'm being visited by the cardinal (sorry, guys, i know you didn't need to know ( Read more... )

At least the post office has a procedure in place for changing the locks on mailboxes that their idiot owners have lost the keys for, but I may not have access to my mail (including a package of beads from amazon and one from Shipwreck) until Friday *sighs and face!palms ( Read more... )

when i posted that list of things i lugged around last night, an entire pallet of bananas weighing 648 pounds (12 crates each with 18 three-pound bunches) one effing crate at a time? So 1456 pounds of produce worked yesterday. And now I get to do it all again tonight. Mmm, I can't wait until tomorrow. Two days off in a row. WIN!!!

FINALLY home. Long day has been long. And harrowing. Just

And, on that note, the muses now want to do a Sanctuary fanvid to this song:

Oh, yes. Definitely time for the Kat to see a shrink. Last month, I was hung up on Morpheus and his blue pills. This month, it’s GLaDOS and her damned promises of cake ( Read more... )

So Kam says she thinks I could sell those element bracelets I made and posted and I go onto Fire Mountain to order a few more strands of beads so I can make multiples if I decide to do that and I find that beads for 2 of the 4 designs I did have been discontinued *points to icon* This is what I get for buying beads on sale (not to self, self: they ( Read more... )

So yesterday wasn't as torturous as I'd thought it would be (mostly -- i was up until almost 7am puking but that was my own stupid fault for not taking allergy meds before spending the afternoon/evening in a National Park). I spent the morning messing with bead combos (found none that worked for me) and watching "Human Weapon" and "Touching Evil" ( ( Read more... )

So, I got that collections notice thingy in the mail and need to call Mom's first hospice to see wtf is going on. I spent all fracking day tearing this house apart to find the notebook that I was making notes in when I talked to them in December and just could not for the life of me. Which might have had something to do with the fact that I tore ( Read more... )
