so i finally got off my ass and uploaded my first pattern onto rav this morning...i'm published, yay! but damn, it's so not an easy process, at least not the first time that is.
i finished Blossom today...well she has been finished for a day or two, but i put on her flowers & beads. she's adorable, i love her =) i also get to cross her off my 11 owl patterns in '11 list. (which reminds me i need to put those lists in here someday)
i started Sourpatch this evening...i fucking hate seed stitch in this quantity! the pattern doesn't match up with the kfb's so i put it down for the night, will frog it in the morning and try it again. i'm tempted to make the seed stitch part just garter, maybe that will make it easier for me. jesus, babygirls' birthday is so close. 8 years old. it's all a blur.
i'm gonna go smoke, maybe put on a movie and pass out. hopefully i don't go to sleep feeling as grumpy as i do right now. going to sleep in a shitty mood usually means waking up with a headache that lasts all fucking day.
think good thoughts Heather.

the last few days, 2 things have really bothered me.
as babygirl and i were walking to park pantry to pick up dinner last night, i saw this guy do a drug deal in the park. on our way back home, the same guy was shooting up in the park. i've seen *ALL* kinds of shit being done in that park over the years, but this really fucking bothered me. because i had babygirl with me? because i had truly thought that type of shit didn't happen there anymore?
and this afternoon...i was happily knitting away on my magic treeptop bag, being covered in mohair sheddings, and snap! my fucking circ broke! not only did it break, but when it did, a LOT of stitches got screwed up. so tomorrow i have to get new circs *AND* start over....i better like this bag lol.
so yeah, those are the funkies.
i do believe we are getting a Wii tomorrow along with the Mario 25th Anniversary game, old skool Mario 1-3 hehehehehehehehe.
the auctions have been going pretty good once they get up.
oh my sweet mary jane, i'm so glad you are back in my life, how i've missed you =)

ache
i have this pain in my heart, or is it an ache, i don't know. i don't know why it's there. i don't know how to get rid of it. i don't know much of anything lately.

whirlwind
monday~ just out of curiosity's sake call old property management company to see if there were any vacancies. there is. make appointment for wednesday (01.12.11) to see said vacancy. not 10 minutes after making appointment, they show up to post the notice that the bank now owns the unit. holy crap.
tuesday~ talk, talk and talk.....yeah we pretty much moved into the apartment in our heads lol....oh this would look good there....omg, the WINDOWS! (we currently have ONE FUCKING WINDOW....no air, no light, nothing, it's a cave)....is this really happening this quick? holy crap!
wednesday~ i wake up with a horrible headache, but fortunately it goes away quickly with motrin and coffee. mum wakes up with a horrible headache and ends up yakking multiple times.....hmmmm, morning isn't starting off very well. aunt flo comes for a visit, early mind you. now the morning simply sucks. mum gets a neck and hand massage, feels better. get in the car and drive to LB. see the apt., go talk to receptionist, call cash for keys lady, get approved for $2,300 to be gone by the 29th, hot damn. talk to the receptionist some more, she talks to big wig, he doesn't even hesitate, of course they can move in.....put deposit down, go to LYS, get celebratory Malabrigo, come home. we're moving next week HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!
now i must go pass out =) =) =)

boxes!!!
we need boxes, lots of boxes! why? because today was the best day EVER! the day we have been waiting for since July or August of last year finally happened. they came to put the notice on our door saying the bank owns this unit now =) =) =) =) =) most people might be really pissed that this happened to them, but not us! this means that we no longer have to pay rent to the former douchebag owner AND the bank will give us "cash for keys" to help us relocate.
i knew this month was different, that gut instinct to not pay rent right away...and it paid off. it makes me shudder to think that if we had paid rent that Tom wouldn't have said anything to us like "oh yeah hey, here's your rent back because the foreclosure on the unit is being finalized", he wouldn't have given it back, he would have just taken it like the greedy bastard that he is.
the day started off pretty well....mum decided that the blond was washing out her color too much so we went and got some beautiful red hair dye, came home and hooked her up. i've always wanted to see her with red hair and well i'll be damned if it doesn't look spectacular on her =)
then it just kept getting better. mum called Lavington, the people who manage the apartments that we moved out of to move here (oh how i wish we had never moved here)....they have a 1 bedroom available in the same building we moved out of! we set up an appointment to look at it this wednesday. mum is pretty confident that it's a "sure thing"....me being the ever pessimistic person that i am, have my reservations, but that's prolly just me not wanting to jinx it =)
not 10 minutes after we got off the phone to set up the appointment they came to post the notice. it was the icing on the cake, put everything into perspective, made everything feel right.
we're going home!
