so silly


This thing--it's just silly. I mean, it's basically a journal for me, since nobody reads it. I've sent the link to people, and still, not one stinking comment.

I'm almost completely moved in. ALMOST. There is still the cleaning, and maybe one or two more car loads. It's amazing how much crap you get rid of when you move. Luckily, my upstairs neighbor at my apartment is a saint, and donates stuff to everybody that needs it while she's busy saving the world (I'm not kidding, here--she's an actual saint), so everything I don't want, don't wear, don't need or don't have space for goes upstairs and either she takes it or donates it or makes some sort of peace medal out of it. Really, a saint.

I'm still completely overwhelmed by the amount of tasks there are with owning a house. I mean, once I get past the whole moving in crap, there's the whole finishing the painting crap, and then there's the whole YARD crap. That's a lot of crap. I need help...

Spring Break


So...my house is my house, and it's something of an easter egg inside--yellows, greens, and purples. I should know better by now than to trust MY judgement. The dogs love the yard, but I made the mistake of taking them out together and got dragged down the street horizontally as they enthusiastically chased another dog. It was awful--I've got bruises and scrapes and the humiliating memory of my pants uncerimoniously being pulled down as I tried to control the situation! Ugh!

Whoo Hoo!!!


Here's the house I just signed on today....as you can see, it has TONS of personality! Oh boy. And, it's huge, obviously.

Do I need a degree?

I'm just wondering if I need an additional advanced degree to figure out this dang blog thing! Seriously!

I'm not very good at this blog thing, and I'm just going to start trying to be better at it, dang it! Why? Dunno. It seems like a cool thing to do, and maybe, just maybe, if I vent out into the ether, I won't be such a raging weirdo all the time (I'm being polite, because weirdo is NOT a word I'd use to describe me).

Okay--this is my new favorite website. Thanks NPR. And maybe, just maybe, the picture posted too? We'll see...
