Grrr…

  Mood : annoyedWhoever popularized pedestal sinks ought to be shot!  They are darling if you have a 3000 sq. foot house and said sink is in the powderroom downstairs that only your guests use, but they so incredibly suck when said sink resides in the one and only bathroom in the house.  How on earth do [...]

Counter-Commute.

  I’ve never liked commuting–it’s such a waste of time–and I’ve been lucky enough the past eight years to have lived within five miles of where I work.  Granted, I did have to commute to school occasionally when I was working on my MA, but at least that wasn’t every day. Of course, now things have [...]

Wow! Productive for a change.

  I just got through a huge stack of papers that needed to be graded.  Unfortunately, that was just two out of my five classes.  I have just as big a stack stuffed in my computer case for another two classes and a moderately sized stack for the AP class that will take just as long [...]

Excited or nervous…I can’t tell.

  I had trouble falling asleep last night.  It didn’t really feel like nerves; I just wasn’t tired.  I should have been, but I wasn’t.  Now I’m worried that I might feel the same way tonight, which is really not good because I’m meeting my friend/decorator/coordinator tomorrow morning at 4:30 to go to the flower market [...]

My love/hate relationship with MySpace

  Okay, like most normal people, I hate the idea that MySpace seems to attract the scum of the earth, offering every secret pervert from here to Timbuktu the chance to oogle naive kids whose parents aren’t supervising their online activity. At the same time, I love that not only can I stay in touch with [...]

Slacking or much needed rest?

  I didn’t get much done today.  Both K and I felt like we just needed to relax a little.  We know we have a really big week ahead of us, then a wedding and a honeymoon, so we just kind of took today off and enjoyed each other’s company.  It was actually pretty nice.  He [...]

Yay! Done!

  I got everything on my list done. I am starting to feel like I might actually be ready for a wedding in one week. ONE WEEK! My dress only needs a bit of handwork now. The bridesmaids dresses still need a bit of work put into them, but I’m confident that those will be mostly [...]
