look ma! an update!
it's been a long couple of weeks and i'm tired. just. tired. it's my state of being lately, but i've been fighting through and doing stuff. it's the cusp of fall and i'm always happier during the fall. i can keep myself going knowing that in a few weeks i'll be able to wear sweaters and boots and fun clothes again. and i'll be able to open the windows in my house and breathe fresh air instead of the A/C all the time. i long for those days.
went to eulogy on saturday and ate mussels in beer and drank a maudite and a victory brew. then to ludwig's where i drank something german that was a wheat beer. i don't know what, but mike-from-work picked it out after seeing what i liked at eulogy. fun night out where chris and i realized we are old and tired and 2am is a late, late night for us. but it was really nice to get out and just relax. mike and helene will totally fit in with our group of friends so i'm hoping to get them to come to pj and meghan's halloween party.
i am sad that madeleine l'engle died. her books meant so much to me when i was younger. even now i have a copy of many waters in my desk at work. i think i'll go read a wrinkle in time and think good thoughts about her.
in other news, a list!
1. chrissy and i started a makeup/skincare/bath and body products blog over at stripped beauty. it's here. not much is there but my latest ravings about talulah. i have to get her to start posting as well.
2. wedding is in approximately a month. hi can it be done so my mom can get back to normal? at least she's calmed down about the bridal shower on saturday though she has changed her mind about favors. again. and she's still driving chrissy crazy.
3. fiber, fiber everywhere! i have a spinning wheel on the way and i'm planning on washing a few of the skeins i've made on the drop spindles. that way i can see how much of the twist is due to the fact it hasn't been washed or if it's overtwisted because of my clumsy skills. *g* the loom will be fixed soon so i can start with that. i plan on testing my yarn on the warp i have set up. it'll make a crazy-ass scarf if it works.
4. i have started a bunch of supplements in an attempt to up my energy and lessen my pain. celery seed, l-tyrosine, b-complex, and omega 3. lots of pills plus my normal ones. so far i can see that i have more energy, but i still fade quickly. the pain is the same. still arguing the need for a cane with chris. honestly, i won't hit people with it!
5. britney. oh britney. honey, get some help. you looked scared to death up there. and it was just a bad performance. you didn't hit this one out of the ballpark. in fact, you bunted and were tagged out by the pitcher.
6. if you've read this far, i want to ask a favor of you. tell me something that makes you happy. it can be a little thing or a big thing. i just want to hear about that for some reason.
ps: if you know what this icon stands for, rock the fuck out. because it's such an old popslash reference but it makes me smile. justin/timbaland for the win! tho now i realize i put the wrong letter on there. le sigh. this is what i get for trying to be witty and fun.
