Survived the stitch n' bitch. It wasn't as bad as I had feared. Though, when I first walked up to the group, all I saw were old ladies. That was mildly distressing. But once I got around the corner, I saw a few people my age-ish and felt a little better.

One of the girls my age actually lives about a block away. We agreed to walk to the meetings together once it warms up a little.

Then while walking to the parking garage together, I made a fool of myself by losing my car. T_T I was so certain I was parked on 3C.....

When I got home, my dog was so thrilled. It was like I was gone for years. She's such a cute happy puppy.

Now I will attempt to stay awake. Socializing exhausts me.

Current Mood: exhausted

Ben and I had lazy dinner last night, and then took a short nap. While I was napping, my dog had an accident on the carpet. Well, less of an accident and more like a flood. It was so disgusting. Not something I like to deal with when I'm awake, let alone super groggy.

After that was all cleaned up and the dog was walked to prevent another accident, I worked on my resume a bit. I'm up to the part where I have to describe the things I did here. That's always the hardest part. I don't know how to phrase, "Wrote a bunch of junk I didn't agree with and which killed my soul" into something more intelligent and positive. I think I'm going to make a list of things I do, and then ask ben to help me turn them into smart little phrases for the resume.

There was also some tv watching. We've started watching a show called "Dead Like Me" which I sorta like. I hate the annoying movie star, but the rest of the show is fine.

When the latest episode was over, we tried going back to bed. But ben was restless. Then I needed a drink of water. Then ben's nose was running. Then he had to put his clothes back in the dryer. Then he needed a decongestant. Then he needed to blow his nose again. And by then I was all tense and crazy, so I demanded he stay awake to talk to me until I calmed down enough to sleep.

So I got more sleep than yesterday, but not enough to make me feel rested. And I dreamed the characters from lost developed superpowers and became superheros, complete with costume.

I had so many plans for yesterday, but they were all lost. I slept until 2 in the afternoon. The only thing I managed to do was make pizza dough. Then I had to shower and pick ben up from work.

I broke my glasses after my shower, which made it hard to do anything useful like sewing or cleaning. They keep sliding off my face. It's very annoying.

Ben was really sleepy after work and needed a nap. While he napped, I started cutting up the onions for the pizza sauce. Onions made ben cry, so I was trying to get it done with before he had to be in the kitchen.

Ben's mom called while I was chopping and I had to wake ben up from his nap. Poor sleepy boy. But at least he was awake enough then to help me make pizza.

I think the pizza was tasty, though I burned myself pretty badly on the pan. I went to get burn cream from the first aid kit

taraisagoddess gave me. Funny....it had everything BUT burn cream! T_T I should just go out and buy some of that stuff. I burn myself often enough.

I put ice on the burn instead. Ice which my dog thought was the most AMAZING thing ever. She wouldn't stop licking it.

During dinner we watched more Yakitate! Japan. The judge got married for a reaction! He was explaining the traits of the bread during his honeymoon. (A reaction is when the judge eats something tasty and then does something amazing. Like in the monaco tournament, the fishbread gave the judge gills. And once, azuma made bread so good the judge went to heaven.)

Then ben wanted to watch lost, which I have completely lost interest in, so I went to bed. I sorta guilted him a little bit, but I was just annoyed because I knew I wouldn't convince him to come to bed until he was done anyway. I miss him when I have to sleep alone.

This morning I didn't get out of bed as early as I should have, so ben had to help me get ready. He's far too good to me. I love him.

I hope work goes by fast today. I miss ben already!

(Ok, I'll stop being disgusting now.)

Current Mood: loved

After work yesterday, Ben and I took a walk down to the atm in town center so I could deposit my paycheck. (And finally pay some bills.) We brought noname with us too. She was very excited about the whole thing.

After I had money again, ben and I split an ice cream cone. To obtain said cone, we had to take noname through the middle of town center. She had never been in a place like that before, so I was really worried. But she was fine and thought the whole thing was rather exciting, especially the part where I was holding an ice cream cone in front of her.

When we got home, ben went back to watching Lost. The show is working well for us because ben can watch it when I'm not around. (Unlike the billion other shows we are watching together.) It's interesting enough to sit and watch it when it's on, but not so interesting that I feel upset if I miss anything. And ben fills me in on the major plot points so I'm not too confused.

This morning I was a little mad at the show though because ben woke up to watch it rather than snuggling with me. I was mad and grumbly all morning, but ben hugged me and kissed me so I guess I have to forgive him. I get jealous too easily.

Now work where I found out I have to go to some lecture at the crack of dawn on Thursday. Poooo. That means I have to get up super early and drop ben off at work early. No fair.

Current Mood: cranky

Yesterday was a stupid day. Spent the morning crying. Then tried to pull myself out of my doom and gloom. Unsuccessful on that. Picked ben up from work to go to the herndon festival. It rained. Plus ben was still sick so he was miserable. I didn't get to look at anything. Just rushed in and out and wanted to cry.

Ben wanted to watch Lost, so we did that. It's an interesting show compared to the other garbage on tv, but it's not my thing. I think because I hate people and the whole show seems to be about people. I spent most of the time pointing out connections to ben. And insisting that there are dinosaurs on the island. (Land of the Lost!)

Had to call my mom yesterday. I hate that. I was glad when it was over.

The only really good part of yesterday was when ben pointed out that we had become a habitat. Ben was sitting on the couch with a bird on his shoulder, and I was laying on his stomach with a dog curled under my legs. We were like a happy multi-species family.

Last night I dreamed I was back in high school and had too much to do so I was late on all my assignments. It made me feel very stressed when I woke up.

I'm back at work today. Part of me still wishes I was sick so I could stay home. But I don't like being sick, so it's really a silly wish. If I was home, I'd want to have fun, not roll around in bed wishing for death.

[EDIT] Grrr, and every time I get rid of those stupid, "did you know" things they come back! How do I kill them permanently!?

Current Mood: blah

The bad day continued last night with ben losing his ID to get to work. I starting spazzing and crying because now my bad luck was affecting him and his ID was gone and he was going to be late for work. I didn't want him to leave because I was convinced something else bad was going to happen to him, like a car accident or something. He made it to work fine, but it didn't help me feel better.

Today seems to be revenge of the bad day.

It started bright and early at 3:30 in the morning when I realized I had forgotten something SUPER important. I had to get up out of bed and take care of it or today probably would be even worse.

Right, so I got up bright and early this morning and spazzed because I had also forgotten to figure out bus vs taxi for today. I decided bus, since it is cheaper.

I couldn''t find the bus stop. The signs in town center have no mention of where the bus stop was. The information office was closed. I asked random people on the street and NO ONE knew. Finally a construction worker mentioned that he sees the bus stopping a lot at BLAH corner. I went there, but it was for the wrong bus. Finally a tiny bit of good luck, a bus employee guy said I looked very lost and sad and asked if he could help. I told him I wanted the 574 bus but couldn't find the stop. He was helpful and told me where to go, but the next one wasn't for another half an hour.

So I waited. And finally the bus came. I managed to get on the right bus and get off at the right stop. But then I had to walk from the stop to work. Took me thirty minutes in the hot sun.

I'm finally at work now, but all I want to do is take a nap. My body can't take this abuse anymore. This has been the week from hell. And it's not even halfway over. :(

Current Mood: pessimistic

Yesterday Ben and I went exploring. Yes, that is what we are going to call it.

First we went to Target. It was the most depressing Target I had ever been to. I think that was because they weren't playing any music at all. The only sounds I could hear were families fighting with each other. It was pretty creepy. But anyway, we got a bunch of things we needed for the apartment, like an iron, and got out of there as soon as possible. I had looked at furniture there, but it was too expensive.

After that, we ate lunch nearby at Chipotle. That would have been a less scary adventure if I could understand what the person there was saying. Partly her accent, and partly my increasing difficulty to hear individual voices in crowds. (I can thank mom for that one.)

Then began our real adventure! I wanted to go to Target for a dresser. More than anything, I wanted a dresser. I wanted a dresser so badly that I was willing to drive billions of miles for one.

So we accidentally got on the road in the wrong direction. There was a toll, and no way to turn around. The toll was nearly $3!!! I didn't want to pay that twice, so I directed ben to find us another way to get to where we wanted to go. We ended on these crazy little roads in redneck country. However, I'd like to point out that they were rednecks that recycle.

After buying a map, and cheap gas, we found civilization again and eventually made it to Ikea. They were sold out of the dresser I liked. And I didn't make a list of alternates. And the store was closing. *sob*

We did buy a bookcase, at least, which we really needed. They were also sold out of cheap tables. Bah, no sewing for me. We are going to either go back today and find alternates for everything, or maybe try back next week.

The ride home was kinda scary because I hadn't had anything to eat in a long time, was tired, and had a book case box blocking my rear window. But we made it home and had dinner and passed out because I was SO tired. And dresserless.

Curse you universe! All I wanted was a dresser!!!

Current Mood: I want a dresser....
