Happy Independence Day!

1) I love love love today. Patriotic music and barbecue smells everywhere! It’s a hot day, so I’m sitting inside cleaning and taking breaks with the intrawebs. I have no real plans for today except to go out to see Elvin Killerbee tonight. I know Seth and I will go and get fireworks, but I don’t know where we’ll play with them. There are a few options that mostly depend on other people. I know I want a margarita. Yes!

2) I really hope I won’t be going out tonight alone. It sounds like that may be the case. Hm. Well, even if I do go out alone, I’ll be out and not really alone anyway. I doubt it. She’ll go. We’ll have fun. Tomorrow we’ll regret having so much fun, but it will probably be funny.

3) I found out some stupid shit about a supposed friend and her real intentions regarding her ’surprise visit’ Sunday. I’ve been ignoring her (millions of) calls and I got a new number anyway, so I may not have to speak to her again. If I wanted friends like her, I’d go back to high school. No thanks! I hope she decides to stay where the hell she is from now on.

4) I need a new job. Life sucks when you’re broke.

Camping was fun. I don’t really think it can be called camping, though. There was a fire. We were surrounded by trees. There were stories of big scary animals that might be lurking about. The one thing that was missing was the “roughing it” aspect, which I think is necessary for it to be called camping. The cabin was more comfortable than my house. It was all warm and toasty and there were people everywhere to talk to. The shower had AMAZING water pressure and the hot water lasted for more than 5 minutes. Nicole and Sonny were good hosts. There was coffee every morning. There was breakfast, too, but I just need coffee. And it was there.

I spent yesterday cleaning my kitchen. All justification for me spending the rest of the day painting the writing desk I got months ago. I should have taken a before and after picture, but I didn’t. It was wood with worn brown paint, and now it’s Shasta Daisy. To the untrained eye, it’s basically white. It’s flat wall paint, though. I will be having to get some kind of coating. I also painted this ugly chair I got from a garage sale. It looks WAY better. Like porch furniture for a beach house. It’s unimportant that I don’t even plan to keep this chair. As soon as I get a nice reading chair, it’s going.

Insomkneeacks is officially open. Just in time for my addiction change. Me, Gary, Tiffy(an old friend), Jesse (my cousin), and Robert(her boyfriend) went one night before it was opened. We had no idea. We couldn’t legally buy coffee. We played memory (and cheated) and I sort of learned to play chess from a guy named Don. If it’s true that everyone sucks their first time, then I’m right on track!

There are some new drawings on DA, and photos of the cabin weekend on flickr.

Also, Histerotica  has new posts. Three new posts. Not just one. They’re good.
