We just bought our first home, and now we are working to make it our own!

Does It Ever End?

Today has been one of those days. It's really been one of those weeks. We've been working on stuff for the lawyers, and I feel like a soggy mess. I've gone through a box (a giant box) of Kleenex in the last week. I should invest in whatever company makes Kleenex. As much as my family goes through these days... I miss her so much. I stumbled across some pics of Barb on the KSUYDs site, as well as some blog entries about her. I just can't deal with it some days, and today looks like one of those days.

We're supposed to have a party for some of our friends who have birthdays over the summer tonight. It should be fun. I'm going to make white chocolate cake and decorate it with pink icing. Yummy.

What the hell is up with this weather? Ten days ago, it was nice, sunny, in the 70's. Now, if it hits 50 we're doing good, and it's cloudy and rainy and gross outside. I don't mind the rain, but it's just drizzly nastiness. A good thunderstorm would be great. I could curl up under a blanket with a book and some tea and read for a couple hours. Or I could sit in a bath tub and read and soak for an hour or so. Ah, the possibilities a lazy evening at home presents!

Micah and I played cards last night. I beat Don - barely. He hit 40 honor, and I had to gain 11 to win with 48 honor. I managed to gain 13, and I could have gained 15, but I forgot to bow for two honor. I'm so blonde on occasion.

Oh, yeah. This is something Scott will get, but I'm excited about it so I'll blab. Barb had a CD with some Latin music she liked, and Scott and I couldn't figure out who it was. So...I found a CD we had made with this artist on it, and I was listening to it and thought "I wonder...if Barb had this music, he is probably fairly popular. So there's a Hispanic lady I work with, and I took the CD in and played the song for her and she knew who it was! Yay! His name is Chayanne. No wonder we couldn't find it in the music files...

Today's random thought "You can destroy a man and not defeat him." Can't remember who said it, though, and I'm too lazy to look it up...

Yes, I Am A Bitch Sometimes

So...it's been a few days, and absolutely nothing has happened. Okay, not quite true. Kate pissed me off, and so I sent her a rather mean note, but it was exactly what I have been needing to say to her for quite some time, and it made me feel better, and the people I've shown it to have agreed it was exactly what would be needed to get through her thick skull. That was yesterday afternoon. No word yet on if she's received/read the e-mail, though. Yay for letting loose my inner bitch!

Tori is officially a monster. She told me so this morning. That makes her a Victoria Girl Monkey Pain-in-the-Butt Angel Monster. Or something close to that. If you ask her "What are you?" she will give you one of those answers. She's sooo cute. When she isn't screaming her head off, that is.

Kage asked me to help him make a costume for A-Kon this year. He's going without me. u.u;; Which sucks, but I can't get the time off work because GUII has their summer program. I'm just like WTF? I work for GUI. Hello? So I can't go to A-Kon, and I can't afford the other con we talked about attending because it's in California at the end of a very expensive plane ticket. Cheapest we found was around $250. We'd have driven to A-Kon, which is in Dallas. Anyway, he's going to be Lloyd from Tales of Symphonia, and I get to make his costume. *promises to post piccies* w00!

Well, it's now 4:54 (yes, it took me 13 minutes to write this worthless entry ^.^) and it is time to shut things down and go home. Yay!

Another Day, Someone Else to Hurt

Another day, and again, Kate pisses me off. It's a vicious cycle. It finally gets through to her that I don't want her around, and she avoids me for a week, cries and bemoans what a horrid friend I am to Eric, and then starts acting like nothing happened. She'll IM me, and I will give her one word responses, and she just WON'T STOP! It drives me nuts. Bleh.

And Robbie is no better. I told him I'd have Tori on Tuesday if he needed me to, but to please let me know on Monday AFTERNOON. So he sends me an e-mail at 11:30 pm asking me to have her. Not a smart thing to do, pissing off your ex-wife. I don't know why I keep expecting him to keep his promises, however small. He couldn't keep them when we were married, either. Why would things have changed now?

In other news...there really is no other news.

I Blame Scott

I blame Scott. This was all his idea. ^.^ That's right, he started it. I'm just kidding...I think. I will try to update daily, but don't hold your breath. I may forget and not update for a month. That's just how I am. I like to pretend to be busy, even when I'm not. And I'm good at it. Bwahahahaha! ^.^
