sigh

i've been bummin' hard. no motivation. just not right. i want to do and be different. looking forward to a new year.

lefty

i need to learn to crochet. and i get to figure out how to do it backwards. cruel right-handed world! tips? suggestions?
for some reason i'm still wearing my apron.

time flies...

okay, so i'm currently going out of my mind. turns out that i had the departure date wrong for our trip to texas, by just one day but enough to freak me out. and of course, i'm scheduled to open the bar the very same day that we leave so i need to get my shift covered.
i have 3 of my 4 costumes all partially made but left the tricky detail work to the end, much to my dismay. our fundage is lacking and our bills are more than anticipated. the stupid car insurance bill came leaving us with an extra grand to make this month while i'm away from work and we need to take some cash with us to texas. the house is a disaster area but i'm hoping to get it all cleaned up before our halloween party. how did my time get away from me? i've been sewing like a mad woman but i fear that i'm never going to get it all done. looks like i'll be burning the midnight oil until we leave. that's okay, sleep is for the weak.

decisions decisions...

i'm not very good at this. apparently i'm required to be completely wound up or as in this case, kinda drunk to blog. halloween has got me going out of my mind. so much left to do, costume-wise, and it has come to my attention that its all but expected of me to have the party. i'm concerned that it will never match the caliber of last year's throwdown. but i certainly don't want to disappoint. how does one go about inviting the cool kids without getting crashed? i surely don't want to hurt any feelings but i'm not in middle school. no where is it stated that i hafta invite anyone. meh. too old for this kind of nonsense.

another day, another dollar

another day in paradise. not that all i want to do is complain on this blog, but why is it that when you need the money the most, which is always, its not there? another slow night at the og, conveniently before a baby shower and the abba show on friday. looks like my cocktails will be limited that evening.

still terrifically sore from wandering through our medieval village this weekend. all this reminds me is that i'm way out of shape and should really think about do something mildly active. i'm not old enough yet to feel this badly. its just too damn hot for outdoor fun right now and ultimately, i'm lazy. i'm so close to a very attainable goal and no one is holding me back but me.

my book is fantastic and i'm nearing the end quickly. i'll return with a full review once its finished. now my task at hand is to find something else to follow it. i'm returning to my very bookwormy days and am quite excited to be back. about time to wonder the aisles of bookstores, running my hands down the spines until something grabs me. suggestions?

my first time

never done this before, bear with me. i'm a talker by nature, whether or not anybody is listening, really doesn't matter.

have had a helliously busy week and am not looking forward to opening the bar again tomorrow. in fact i should be sleeping as i type. we had many old o.g. kids on the bartop tonight, nice to have friends around when things get crazy. thanks for the delicious pie.

really looking forward to dressing up and hitting the ren fest this sunday. the boy is staying at grandma's house tomorrow night, wish i was able to take advantage and sleep in but i'd like to get there early.

started a interesting book this afternoon. gonna try to pound out a few chapters before the alarm goes off. maybe this will go better tomorrow.
