hello sunshine come into my life
today has been a delightful day. my mother, nana and myself went to "the magic rolling pin" for tea and lunch. it was so fun! so relaxing. i had a really nice tea and a delicious cheese cake :P then we went to nana's house and i helped her set up her new portable phones. she didn't quite get it, which was frustrating, but she's my nana whom i love dearly so i wrote everything down step by step and we'll get her to play around with them whenever we see her. hey, she's 80 years old and i think she's doing pretty good for 80 :)
i am so excited for friday because we actually have budgeted our money and are getting an AIR CONDITIONER! it will come so in handy. our apartment is disgusting. and by that i just mean hot. but once we get the air conditioner, things will look up. we will position the fans so they blow the cool air to the rest of the apartment. and boy, do i have plans for the rest of the apartment. after the air conditioner, our next big purchase will be a dishwasher...expensive yes, but so needed (especially when you live with a man who hates doing dishes, doesn't like touching them, can't even wear the yellow gloves to do them cause it bugs him - i accept it and love him no matter what...but i am tired after work and the dishes always seem to pile up). a dishwasher will make things so much easier. once we get the dishwasher, i am going to rearrange the kitchen table and get a table cloth and put the folding chairs with it so we can actually sit down and eat a nice meal together! we eat fine now - i'm totally cool with eating in front of the tv - i'd just like a nice sit down meal together at least once in a while. or like a romantic dinner here or there. you know. ray wants to paint the apartment different colours, which i'm cool with. we'll be here for a bit i guess. which is fine cause i do love this apartment (sans bugs - ew).
today i asked jamie how to join a community on livejournal. i was just looking for something else i can look at really. i only have 2 people on my lj :) well, she found a community about menstrual cups - so gross. but anyway, hilarity ensued as we discussed this topic more. i was really looking for a place about cats as i love cats and i love my cat and the thought of losing him is killing me daily. i was looking for more of a support place. but i couldn't really find one. there is a cat lovers one but i don't physically have a cat with me at the apartment and all they talk about is kitty litter and kibbles. herbie wouldn't be able to come here, especially now. my mom and i had a good cry on sunday at the dinner table about him. i can really notice changes happening to him. i guess living away from him is actually a good thing because if i saw him everyday i wouldn't leave the house. i'll try searching again on lj because there must be a group out there who deal with this - help people with the loss and then moving on - that will be a whole other entry in the future. i actually thought a good way of helping me emotionally with this whole herbie thing was i was going to write a book about him. maybe i still will but as it is now, i can't write about it.
ok more positive!!! cause i am getting down in the dumps. i am now totally fan-girling over this band We The Kings. one of their songs were on the Lego rock band game and i instantly fell in love with them. i like the sound of them. i have been able to play a couple of their songs on my bass (which i've been playing more often lately - i still gotta buy myself a strap for it). and...what else shall i talk about? i think that is it :) right now i'm just rocking out to taking back sunday - another band i am all fan-girly over. we saw them last summer and i'd love love love to see them again. actually, i really want to see weezer again.
any concert would be good.
i love going to concerts with raymio <3
and speaking of weezer....
