well...i haven't posted lately...did anyone notice?
anyway. my mom and athey and andy all came into town with me last weekend. we got there friday afternoon and left on sunday morning. i had to cram a whole bunch of stuff into those days. on friday afternoon we went to the farmer's market, and then went to marco's for dinner and then to petsmart to get a new carrot for sprite as well as some food for her. then i came home and managed to clear paths into both of the sleeping rooms for my guests.
on saturday morning i got up and my mom and i went to some garage sales. then we came home and had cappuccinos (i made them) and then the four of us went to the herndon house, and then to tower. then we came home and my mom and i were late to the opera but they let us sit down anyway.
after we got back from the opera i quick quick changed my clothes and dave and i drove down to the chamber...but, when we saw the enormous crowd of people, both in cars and in line, we turned around and went back home. i feel disloyal for not being there on its last night, especially since dave and i met there, and it's been a huge part of our lives as a result. however, i really didn't want to remember it all packed and full of people, many of whom seem to be the kind who were just there to say they'd been. of course all of you on my friends list know i'm not talking about YOU!!! and it's not like we're not ever going to come out to secret room at masquerade. although dave doesn't like to drive so far.
dave said that on new year's eve we'll go sit out in the parking lot and have a drink...
it's really late and i'm sure i'm going to get woken up early so i need to go to bed.

hmmm...so it appears that every week "THEY" are going to say that it's going to snow here. this week it's wednesday or thursday. maybe THEY could say it's going to snow anthrax, and then THEY could combine weather and terrorism fear. because people here are afraid of snow. i won't drive in the snow here, not only because the last time i drove in snow i was side swiped by a tractor trailer and almost went off a mountain, but also because the people who drive in the snow don't know what to do. they can't even drive in the rain.
anyway. i didn't mention that last week i hit the curb outside of my mom's house, really hard, and fucked up two tires. this has been a bad week so far for things, and it's only tuesday. $300 of crap for my car. my mom's computer has some problem and is on its way back to the apple factory. my back and shoulder are not right, and hurt all the time. my mom is sad in general, and doesn't know why. we got fired by a client, and aren't sure of the reason. dee and i think it might be because she thinks that someone stole her cd thing. which of course no one did. otherwise, it's because when we cleaned her cabinets last week, we didn't put everything back EXACTLY the way it was. it kind of sucks because she is sort of friends with my mom.
oh well. at least i don't have to take heather to the car place because her boyfriend didn't have to work today and can take her. she finally bought a car! yay! and it's a four door, so that will be easier when we move to atlanta. it's a nice car, but the only thing i really envy about it is that it's black, and possibly that it has a sunroof, but my car is much nicer. she's happy with it, though, and likes her car better than mine.

there are certain people who have either directly or indirectly expressed interest in having me clean their houses/apartments/dwellings. i will have my cleaning stuff with me this weekend, to clean my own house. people who are interested, not necessarily in this time, PLEASE get in touch with me, because i need money, and the faster i can line up things in atlanta, the sooner i can move back.
also, for people who don't want to pay, i will clean in exchange for goods and services, but that needs to be negotiated.

and here's a quote: "money talks, but chocolate ice cream sings."
