So I found us a house. It's pretty near perfect. Well, except that it's not actually ours yet. Let me back up. I saw an ad for this amazing house on craigslist last weekend, I think. It looked amazing, had all the features we're looking for, was perfectly within our price range, everything was great except it was available immediately. So I sighed ( Read more... )

OMG I have finally managed to get caught up on my friends page! This might be only the first or second time this year that that's happened. :p Also, I need some new lj icons. Anyone want to help me find some fun ones? I have a whole folder of them on my computer, but they're largely related to old interests or ones that I don't really feel like ( Read more... )

I know I'm hella behind on my friends page again, and I promise I will catch up eventually, but right now, I want to write my own post. Let me just note that as I type this, I can clearly hear my neighbor's obnoxious reggae/hiphop/whatthefuckever music. Through the walls (which are not especially thin), and over the music in my own earbuds. So ( Read more... )

This entry would probably be better with pictures, but I haven't uploaded them yet. So you'll have to get those at another time. :p Pucks n' Purls was pretty fantastic, but maybe I'll write more about that when I upload the pictures. In the meantime, my friend Erin posted a picture from Pucks n' Purls on her blog, so you can go check that out at ( Read more... )

So much stress right now. Well, let me tell you about the one cute/fun thing first. I'd imagine most of you have seen the pictures, but in case you didn't, Brad and I adopted a kitty. She's two years old, and we're not 100% sure of her breed, but she's definitely got some Maine coon in her. She's very fluffy! Someone had posted to the Toronto ( Read more... )

*waves* Hi everyone. I'm still alive, wooo! I've just been busy busy busy alternating with very tired for the last few weeks. So, time to come up for air ( Read more... )

OMG I moved! Yesterday was a little bit ridiculous all around, but I have successfully moved. Many many MANY thanks go to Kristian, who is a truly wonderful friend and helped me out in more ways than I can ever repay. It's not very often that people have opportunities to do things that are completely selfless, but when it happens and people do ( Read more... )

First, and most important, my obligatory boytime announcement: boytime for the next two weeks, wooooooo!! Leaving tomorrow morning nice and early, will be back on the 25th. Will possibly be online here and there, but phone will mostly be off if I can help it. Yayyyyy Canada!

Second, for those who don't necessarily follow Canadian news, scary ( Read more... )

Apartment hunting adventures part two! :D Okay, so after last week, I'd emailed the girl from the one place I did end up seeing, and she never emailed me back. I thanked her for showing me the apartment, asked her a couple questions I'd forgotten, and nothing. Emailed her a couple days later, still no response. It's so awesome when people ( Read more... )

Fun birthday times were had at Cosi and Coldstone with Kira, Sarah, Jenn and Lori (aka x__5472, sarahfrancesca, cheekybaby, and unejeuneactrice). Torrential downpour happened and we watched in awe as the rain went sideways. We hid out in Cosi for quite awhile, leaving just in time to get some delicious ice cream before Coldstone closed. Pictures are available for your viewing pleasure here ( Read more... )
