In Which I Discuss My Slackness

Tuesday, August 31st, 2004

Before we start, it’s time for another quilt block: Block 9 (actual size=8 1/2 in. square).
Still no sign of the magic bolt. I think someone bolted with it. Hardee har har.
I shouldn’t feel so trapped without my car. It is entirely possible to go stand on the corner, hop on a bus, jump on […]


Slowly Civilized

Monday, August 30th, 2004

This apartment is almost starting to feel civilized. I cleared out the last of the boxes and only ended up with four that I totally didn’t know what to do with. Sticking them in the closest seemed like a nice short term solution, though I think I may end up throwing away all […]


Back to Reality

Sunday, August 29th, 2004

We’re back! I don’t know why I’m using that exclamation point. I’m not at all excited about being back. We had a great time in Ohio and I really do think we need to figure out a way to move closer to Julie and Jeff at some point. I guess we can […]


Ohio!

Saturday, August 28th, 2004

We are here in Ohio and having a great time! Last night Jeff and Julie taught us how to play hearts. Mike was a natural (I think he used to play it on the computer), but I pretty much suck at it. I’m not much of a game player and really don’t do […]


Vacation!!!

Friday, August 27th, 2004

Just a quick entry to say we are almost out of here! We are going to leave for the airport in about an hour, so I guess I really should take a shower within the next few minutes. Though I have learned that I am much faster than I used to be–the other […]


Tongue Dominant

Thursday, August 26th, 2004

What’s this? A morning entry? Why yes, yes it is. Or rather, it is an afternoon entry but since I’m still in my robe it counts as morning. This not working has me thrown all off kilter. I can’t wait for school to start.
I started the day off with a […]


This, That and the Other

Wednesday, August 25th, 2004

This entry wouldn’t be complete without the daily block, so here’s block six. Only 24 to go.
I woke up this morning and found the kitchen absolutely crawling with cockroaches. I couldn’t understand how it had happened. I have been meticulous with the kitchen cleaning!
Then I woke up.
Scared you, didn’t I? […]


Block 5

Tuesday, August 24th, 2004

I just couldn’t go to bed without making another block. I’m not too sure how I feel about it. I am trying really, really, really hard to have a wide variety of light and darks, purples and greens. I am so very bad at getting stuck into ruts and I don’t want […]


The Liver Baby Returns

Tuesday, August 24th, 2004

My side has been hurting all night in the exact same way it hurt before I had my gall bladder out. Nooooooooooooo!!! Does this mean the liver baby is back? What the heck is wrong with me. I didn’t have a part removed for nothing, people! Grrrrrrr.
I am ovulating so maybe it’s […]


Booby Fondling

Monday, August 23rd, 2004

I am very disappointed with my booby fondling today. As you may recall, I signed up for a bra fitting this weekend and today was my appointment. I walked up to the counter and saw the sign up log. I was the only name on it. For the week. That made […]
