In case you were wondering/cared
So I know I like to disappear for months and months at a time from the internets, but this last stint was not by choice. So....in case you would like to know,
My parents had been trying to sell our house for almost a year, which caused alot of stress for me because for most of that time all of my belongings had to be hidden or packed away for "staging" so we didn't really live there anymore anyway, I would have to leave for hours so strangers could walk through the house only to say they weren't interested. (some of my favorite reasons were, house isn't brick, I suppose they didn't realize that until they wasted our time. and I wasn't a fixer upper, wow...so these people want more work, we could mess it up for you) During all of this life continued, social circle 180's, ran into old friends and people I always thought sucked and still do, love life always a winner, ummm...friends dog had puppies, new job which pretty much consumes all my time, school ???? confusion, losing my mind, oh there it is, no that's a pineapple, etc.
So FINALLY when I went out of town to see Radiohead in Missouri, we sold the house!! Ah, the light at the end of the tunnel right? Not quite, my parents decide to buy a house that's still being built, so nowhere to stay for two weeks. My sister, saint that she is says we can stay at her house...but she had a few conditions, I couldn't bring my cats(had to board them at the clinic) and I would have to sleep in the basement that isn't finished,no carpet or walls, just particle board(she said she didn't have any room upstairs although it was a 3 bedroom house and my parents were sleeping in the study,there was another room, the GUEST ROOM with a bed in it), and leave during the day until she got home from work(even when I was off work I couldn't stay there), oh and I couldn't bring my puppy either. So as kind of an offer as that was I decided to fend for myself. Alexis, my friend who gave me the puppy let me stay at her house, great, first week was a controlled chaos as it normally is there, then the second week the power gets cut off, god just strike me down right now. We decide to rent a dazzling hotel, amenities include, ALREADY chewed gum on the head board of my bed, a sock under the other bed, a bit of a roach problem, and a mystery substance on the wall of the bathroom and kitchen, I'm crossing my fingers that it was Coca-Cola, it looked like it anyway. At least we knew we weren't ruining the place with the dogs. So the two weeks I was told to wait was up and still no end in sight, the house still is not done :( This is no longer funny. So I feel I'm going on for too long so long story short, back to Alexis' house chaos, my sister tries to make me run around and do errands for her like a little bitch, umm, puppy chaos, got attacked by a 20 pound cat, got some nice scars from that, I got a new tattoo I'm pretty sure during all this but who really knows, and I think this basically sums it up, maybe. Seven weeks later I have a home, time to relax, aaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnd, no, working 40 give or take hours a week, pet sitting (which is a nice little side job but I sometimes have to stay at their house so I'm living out of bags again), and now I live about thirty minutes away from all of this and I'm used to living about three so that's been an adjustment. *sigh* So, I have been tired for a long time now and still no stopping.
Oh, and did I mention i'm going to Lollapalooza in Chicago at the end of this month? Yeah.
Here's a picture
Her name is Honey Bunny Cupcake, or just Bunny. This picture was taken when she was about six weeks old, she's about thirteen weeks now.
So what have you been up to?
