It's snowing! And snowing hard, too. How cruel of it to start when I'm not in a canceled school anymore. But the neighborhood looks beautiful (and we have cute birdy tracks on the back porch ( Read more... )

Hmmmm. While procrastinating today (although I did get most things done), I have been pondering over who to vote for in each party in the upcoming primaries. I will personally be voting in the Democratic primary, but I may or may not have influence over my sister's Republican ballot. At any rate, we agreed we'd vote primary-wise on different party ( Read more... )

Mmm, I am exasperating too. Last night I almost canceled on Sean last-minute (again) for trivia, until he got mad at me... and I deserved it. I guess we are good at putting up with each other's shit by now- the key to happiness ( Read more... )

Ergh. Sometimes I wish my feelings for Sean weren't so... fluctuatey. Well, they really don't fluctuate, if they did, I wouldn't marry him- I am always crazy in love with him, even when he is EXASPERATING. Today he managed to insult my cooking, taste in books, taste in wedding dresses, and taste in movies all within about an hour. Augh. Not to ( Read more... )

Ugh. I had the most horrible, horrible dream- the cat had been bit by a dog, and I take it to a vet and swear to give her all my money if she can fix him, and she packs up to leave and says "Oh, sorry, I have to go do this experiement where we put this rabbit in a tank and suck all the air out." So I ask WHY she would suffocate a harmless bunny and ( Read more... )

Mmm, perfect Christmas. Andra and I beat Zelda (like, the original one- a victory, oh, twelve to fourteen years in the making?). We had perfect ham, perfect potatoes, and HAM GRAVY for midday meal. If I had to list my favorite foods, it would go like this ( Read more... )

I don't post enough... probably because life has been very day-to-day lately. I'm sticking out the job until the holidays are over, watching rented movies with Sean (Mortal Kombat and Serenity this week... neither good). I have no funny stories and I've actually been kind of stressed lately. I usually feel kind of crappy when I'm stressed, but this ( Read more... )

Sean always erases the stress of planning things. For instance, tonight I am completely unworried about future wedding plans, and SO GLAD I am marrying him. Tonight the two of us, his parents, my parents and Andra finally got together to celebrate the engagement by going out to dinner, and then Sean insisted on paying himself. So sweet. I mean, he ( Read more... )

Auuugh. What a couple of weeks, honestly. Not only am I STILL only semiemployed- I'm giving myself three weeks before I quit where I'm at, move in with Sean, and work at Dunkin Donuts or something to pay the bills- but I was blindsided with my Mom's MRSA-or-whatever-resistant staph infection (which is still not better after at least two weeks), my ( Read more... )

Hmmm... I've been engaged a week, and all I've managed to do so far is semi-design my dress. By which I mean my sister drew a sketch on notebook paper. She'll probably design it and mom will make it, so hopefully it won't be outrageously expensive. My "second dress" (for the reception) will be easier ( Read more... )
