Thanks Heather and Jesse.
My BF Maria's brother John is getting married on labor day, and I am a) doing alterations on Maria's dress, the flower girl dresses, and potentially the bride dress; b) keeping an eye on her daughter (the flower girl) and potentially the neice (another flower girl) and ;c0 I seem to be in charge of Maria's hair.
However, when I just lost my apartment, she spent 2 days calling and setting up appointments for me, and presented them to me with a map of where to go.
It is great to have friends.
That's a good friend.
For one of my friends' weddings another friend and I ended up doing last minute alterations on dresses. I suppose I got stuck with it because I had the machine and Cyn because she seems like she was born knowing how to do that stuff. 3 dresses in I hit the duct tape like a crackhead hits the pipe.
It's somehow especially nice when you can be good friends to each other right in a row like that. Nice!
That's a good friend.
Yeah. i some from a really small family-- my mom, my grandparents (deceased), two rather sidtant uncles and me.
She has a mom, a dad (deceased) three brothers and a million assorted cousins.
She always tells me in a crisis to remember I am part of her family now, too. And they are all helping me move.
Please tell me why I have a burning need to read the transcripts of the entire Season 3 of Roswell instead of, well , packing up the mountains of crap I have collected in three years.
Any sane person would do almost anything rather than pack mountains of crap, even if the latter really needs to be done. It's similar to the concept of cleaning when you should be doing homework, only you are more sane, because watching
Roswell
actually sounds kind of fun.
This explanation is important to me. Now I can blame my messy apartment on having been out of school for
years.
Slacktivist references BtVS to prove that Cordelia and Xander were smarter than Dubya. (Of course, we knew that.)

I should not have read that- now I can hear that stupid condecending tone.
I'm also a little sick of the America as exporter of freedom schtick. I do believe that average Americans believe in the principles of freedom and that they should be available to all people. But the unequivocal statement that our government always acts in those interests, bestows that on other countries, or even has never actively worked against it makes me want to yank out all my history books and throw them at him.

I am quitting my job tomorrow! WHOOT!
New job = raise. Not as much as I had hoped for, but there is opportunity for commisions and stock options, so that is really more $. did I say Whoot? WHOOT!
Now I must decide which to buy: dress or iPod. and whether to buy one of those first or a laptop. and whether to get DSL right away or after a few paychecks. or whether to put some stuff in savings and not blow it all. or MAYBE I can do all of it if I try really hard.
