Gas Station Ruminations

There are a few things I've noticed/learned while working at the gas station these past few weeks...

Stocking cigarettes is like filling giant, cancer causing PEZ dispensers.

There's something totally fucked up about your nine year old deciding which scratch tickets you buy, and getting super excited because she notices the new tickets we've started stocking.

People who need to come into the store to ask the cashier & everyone else what kind of gas they should be pumping into their car shouldn't be driving said car in the first place. Also, if you look at the gas pumps, you will see that there are all three grades of gas available at each pump. No, I'm not lying, we really are that cool.

No, you CANNOT buy alcohol with your food stamps, and I shouldn't have to explain why.

If/when you are falling down drunk, I will not sell you any more alcohol. Yes, I'm serious. No, I don't care if you're a paying customer.

Our store's panic button is incredibly sensitive... I hadn't even noticed I'd hit it until the police arrived... oops...

There are also a few good things...

Like the little old lady with the almost-beehive who drives a classic black Camaro and comes in only to buy scratch tickets & cigarettes. She's the nicest old lady ever. She doesn't pump her own gas either... her hubby always makes sure she's got a full tank to drive around on.

And my boss. He's really one of the nicest people I've ever met. Ever. I keep waiting for him to be an asshole, but I don't think that it's even possible. ^-^

All in all, I don't mind my gas station job. Most people are nice, and the assholes aren't usually regulars... mostly because we can kick people out if they're being truly awful, and our boss will back us up all the way. Sames goes with calling the cops (should we need to).

Now all I gotta do is find some shoes that are nice & squishy so my feet & knees stop trying to fall off after every shift...

Hope everyone is doing well. I miss blogging & stalking you all. I'll work on fitting a bit more stalking into my schedule... =D

FOR TODAY, Sunday, March 18th, 2012

Outside my window... It's still a grey day, but at least it's not raining. ^-^ This will make it a better day indeed.

I am thinking... About a million things. My jobs, moving, bills, things I have to get done before I go back to my night job...

I am thankful... That Britt's graduating tomorrow! =D After all her hard work, crazy expectations & equally crazy teachers, she's done with her Practical Nursing and will have her pinning ceremony tomorrow. YAY!!! I'm so proud, I could explode. <3

In the kitchen... There's (bagged) potting soil on the counter. I need to transplant my African Violet today & the two little mystery sprout that sprouted after I transplanted my sweet potato. I have no idea what they are. 

I am wearing... My silky red bathrobe & Halloween print undies. I have A LOT of Halloween print undies... =D

I am creating... Nothing at the moment. I feel so busy, so like I'm caught in a whirlwind, that I need to just sit my ass down & work with my drop spindle for a while. Nothing relaxes me like spinning yarn. 

I am going... Crazy... no wait, already there. Really, I'm going to the thrift store(s) today to find a pair of black pants for my day job at the Shell station. I also need to go grocery shopping & pay a few bills. 

I am wondering... How I'm going to manage my two jobs & still have time for myself & time for my sweety. I haven't figured this out yet. On the bright side, this day job I now have will only be until we move. Then it'll be back to one job, as I'll be in school. But then how will I find time for myself & time for my sweety? Um, hmmm...

I am reading... Beauty Queens by Libba Bray. It's all kinds of awesome. It's a great social commentary on expectations of girls & women, media, etc. Totally worth a read. =D

I am hoping... That I find a way to balance my life. I thought I had it almost in hand, but then I got this new job & things are on their ear again. 

I am looking forward to... Having a schedule I can look at, so I can plan time to care for my house, my relationship & myself. As of right now, I know I go back to work at the hospital on Wednesday night for seven nights, and that I work Monday at the Shell, but I have no Shell schedule yet. It's making me crazy. 

I am learning... All the different kinds of cigarettes & cheap alcohol that the Shell sells. OMFG. I've made a diagram of the cigarette display so I can learn where everything is. As a non-smoker, I'm totally lost here. There are SO MANY DIFFERENT KINDS OF CIGARETTES. @_@

Around the house... The cats are wrestling (Lhu & Vash), Phiphi's sitting in front of the heater & trying to cook himself, Macha's glaring at everyone from the highest point in the cat condo. Britt & I are on our laptops. Laundry's washing... My toes are getting run over by stampeding cats... ouch. 

I am pondering... The order of my errands today. 

A favorite quote for today... "Our truest life is when in dreams, we are awake." ~ Henry David Thoreau

One of my favorite things... is seeing all the plants on my porch sprouting new bits of green after being brown all Winter.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Work, go to Britt's graduation, work some more. Sleep? o_O 

This will really all depend on what days this week I'll be at the Shell.

A peek into my day... Coffee drinking this morning. Oh wait... it's afternoon. Huh. Well then, coffee drinking this afternoon, grocery shopping, looking for a pair of black pants, some house cleaning (for once it's kinda mostly clean), yarn spinning, cat snuggling, book reading, more coffee drinking, dinner making... Hm. Maybe some other stuff too... the sun's coming out. Maybe I'll go play on the porch for a bit. ^-^

This is what a Sweet Potato looks like in a pot. ^-^ 

Mine's a bit bigger, and has started to lean. They get really viney, so I'll be figuring out how to support the vines here in the immediate future. I got the idea from the book Garden Anywhere. Awesome book, especially if you've not got a lot of space to garden, or are gardening in containers. ^-^

I'm hoping I'll be able to spend at least a few hours online every week, catching up on blogs & poking all of you wonderful people. But if I disappear for a while again, at least it will be because I'm working too much instead of being depressed. ^-^ 

Everyone have a marvelous week. I hope no one's suffering too much from any partying they did last night... =P

As always, head over HERE to read all the other daybook entries, and say Hi to our lovely hostess, Peggy. ^-^

Simple Womyn's Daybook

FOR TODAY: Saturday, March 3rd, 2012

Outside my window... It looks grey & cold. It's been raining throughout the night, leaving my porch damp.

I am thinking... That I would like to make more time for myself during my week I work. On my seven days off, I have no problem (most of the time...) doing this. On my seven days on, however, I just kind of coast through them, counting down the nights I have left before my next stretch of days off. I imagine this is why I frequently feel like time is flying by me, losing a week here, a few days there. I'm not really present during the week I work. I go on auto-pilot.

I am thankful... That Spring is coming. Sometimes I love the grey & the rain. Some days it's just perfect for my mood (even if it's not a sad mood ^-^). But some days, I am sick of feeling perpetually soggy. On these days, I wish for the sun & warmth of Spring & Summer. I'm not quite sure yet how I feel about today... I think I'll be fine with the grey & the rain until I have to go outside in it... =P

In the kitchen... I'm hard-boiling eggs. Britt went through a phase where she thought that every kitchen needs a gadget specific to ONE task. Ergo, we have an egg boiler. o_O
Granted, it's terribly handy in that I don't have to watch the pot to make sure it doesn't boil over, and that the eggs are cooked to perfection each time. But I still think it's silly to buy all this shit for your kitchen if one thing (a pot) can cook all manner of foods, it just takes a bit more attention. Oh, and I told her the day she buys a bread machine is the day she'll find herself single... Ok, not really, but she got my point.  ^_~

I am wearing... My most awesome of camouflage pajama pants. They're guys' pants, and they have POCKETS. Totally wonderful, useful, deep pockets. Girls' PJ pants don't have pockets... hmph. Anywho, I love these pants. I'm one of those people who'll live in their jeans if you'd let them. This drives Britt nuts, because she thinks jeans are almost the worst thing ever, and so when we went to brunch at her classmate's house, it was mandatory PJs. This was the second brunch, mind you, as at the first, I'd refused to wear pjs, and since this classmate had made her boyfriend wear his pjs (he's a jeans kinda guy),  he was jealous I got to keep my jeans... So Britt made me buy PJ pants to wear. ^-^

Also wearing a long sleeved stripped shirt, as my desk is right next to the living room window. I'm totally comfortable with my body, but don't especially want to share it with my neighbors.

I am creating... a grocery list.

I am going... to the store this afternoon, and to help Britt find an all white scrub top. Her class photos are Monday, and she has to be in all white... *snicker*
I told her that if we don't find one today that she likes, she's going to Joann's, picking out fabric & a pattern & I'll sew her one.

I am wondering... what the hell I did to my left knee... it hurts like a bitch. Going us stairs is not good, and putting any weight on it while flexing is just hurts. I'm thinking I may have sat cross-legged on the floor watching movies for too long the other day... o_O oops.

I am reading... Gluten Free on a Shoestring by Nicole Hunn. Neither Britt nor I are completely gluten intolerant, but we're both pretty sensitive to it. This makes eating most cakes, cookies, breads & pastas an issue, and since I love to make bread, this is an ISSUE. So I'm giving this book a read. ^-^ It comes with recipes, tips for saving money at the store, etc. I'm not far enough in to really have an opinion about it yet, but so far it's been helpful.

I am hoping... that I get the part time job I applied for. That way, I can put all the money from that job into a savings account for us to use for moving expenses, etc. Plus, it's only half a mile from my house, which means I could easily walk there. Yay!

I am looking forward to... next payday, when we won't have to pay rent out of that paycheck & I'll be able to buy more Ghirardelli white chocolate powder for my coffee... This paycheck didn't leave enough for any extras when it comes to groceries, so I shall suffer through normal coffee (woe is me... ^_~)

I am learning... how to combine gluten free flours with xanthan gum to create dough that bakes up almost like it's gluten containing counterparts.

Around the house... The kitties are sleeping, boiled eggs are cooling & the mess is patiently waiting for me to get to it. Which I'll do as soon as I'm done blogging. ^-^

I am pondering... little ways (and big ones too) that I can incorporate more magic into my day. ^-^
After all, what's the fun in believing in magic & faeries & goblins & such if one doesn't incorporate them into everyday life?

A favorite quote for today... comes from an artist I'm not terribly familiar with, but the quote was shared with me at work the other night, as the evening shift Staffing clerk thought I'd get a kick out if it. And I did...
"What kind of fuckery is this?" Amy Winehouse (from Me & Mr. Jones)

One of my favorite things... Is the movie Revolver. It's made its way up there right next to Fight Club... which if you know me & how much I worship that movie, is saying something. <3
If you have an Amazon Prime account, you can watch it for free. W00t.

A few plans for the rest of the week: I go to the dentist Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday. This will max out my insurance before I move, which is the plan. Also, it'll hopefully get the worst of my teeth fixed. *insert anxiety here*

A peek into my day... I'm going to sit here & drink my coffee, eat an egg or two & read through blogs. Then I'm going to get Britt up & we'll go look for a scrub top. Also, at some point today, I'll go grocery shopping (after I've finished planning meals), and will probably read some more. If it stops raining for a bit, I might go out onto the porch & poke my plants a bit, trim off the dead winter stuff, etc.

The Simple Womyn's Daybook

So now that Hippy Jersey Devil's gone & gotten my panties all in a bunch, Good Morning.

It's looking like we might have a nice-ish day today. Sweet. We were supposed to get rain, so I'm totally happy with the wee bit of sun that's shinning.

I need more coffee. Two cups just isn't doing it... I grabbed some cereal for breakfast, scooped up a bite only to realize that I forgot to put milk on it. Dur...

Ok I am now in possession of another cup of coffee. Also wondering if my cat (Vash) snuck a cup or two, as he's zipping all over, making weird growly meow noises & just generally freaking out. He chilled & got all lovey when I picked him up, but as soon as I put him down, he was back to tweaking out. Meh. Strange kitties I have, I tell you.

Anyways... I think this was supposed to be a Simple Woman's Daybook post... So here we go.

FOR TODAY (Wednesday, February 22, 2012)

Outside my window... OMG. Is that the SUN I see??? @_@ It is. This means as soon as I'm done here, I'm heading to Boulevard Park to visit the beach.

I am thinking... about a million things & nothing. I've got lists that need to be made, stuff I gotta do, blah blah blah... But half of my mind seems to be keeping itself apart from the rest. Perhaps this is why I haven't been able to focus as well the past few days. Half of me is someplace else. I think some zen time by the beach is in order.

I am thankful... for my parents. Their love & new found support of Britt & me is quite possibly the best thing ever. I was always close to my parents growing up, and have felt quite keenly the chasm that seemed to open between me & them after I came out to them. I am beyond grateful to have them back, especially knowing that I didn't have to compromise where I stand & who I am in order to have my family in my life. (Should you read this mom or dad, I love you. You're just the best.) <3

In the kitchen... wait for it... WAIT FOR IT...

There's a pile of dirty dishes waiting for my attentions! Ha! You totally knew that was coming, I know. And I just couldn't disappoint you, now, could I ? =D

I am wearing... Jeans & a tank top. And stripped socks. Of course.

I am creating... Um... let me see. I don't think I'm actively working on anything at the moment. I've painted a box to store my seeds in, decorated the box I keep my completed inchies in and decorated another little box that I keep the tiny folded paper stars I make in. I've also been working a bit in my BOS. I mostly finished one page & am about half way done with another page. ^-^

I am going... back to work tonight (bleh...), to the beach as soon as I'm done here (yay!), to move Portland on the first day of July (@_@).

I am wondering... Um, nothing (I don't think). My brain seems to be mostly checked out.

I am reading... Wolf Tickets by Ray Banks, Gluten Free on a Shoestring by Nicole Hunn, Recipes for Ostara & Recipes for Beltane by Nar. Just finished The New Death and others by James Hutchings, and will be reviewing it here in the immediate future. Mini review? Sure. IT FUCKING ROCKS. GO BUY IT.

I am hoping... that I'll be able to pull my brain together at some point this morning so I can be at least kinda productive today.

I am looking forward to... Next Wednesday, when I'll be on my next stretch off. Yes, I hate my job & am fucking thrilled to be done in four months. Actually, I don't really hate the job itself. It's who I work before/after that I dislike so intensely. And it's not that I dislike them as people (with the exception of a certain day shift clerk...). Some of them just shouldn't be trying to do a job they suck at (after working it for over a year), especially when the vast majority of their fuck ups mess up someone else's shift instead of their own. Meh. June 19th is my last night. W00t.

I am learning... just about every medication that Britt has to learn. My poor sweety's brain may explode. And why the hell do some people take these meds??? The damn side effects are far worse that what they've got to begin with. *facepalm*

And don't even get me started on psych meds & children... holy fuck. Go watch The Medicated Child, and see what I'm talking about. It's free to watch, btw, and is worth it. GO.

Around the house... Oh lordy... my house is a disaster area. There is nursing shit everywhere. Britt needs an apartment to house just her school shit. @_@
I am in total awe of how she does all the shit she does with school. And I am incredibly glad that I'm not going to be a nurse anymore.

I am pondering... my coffee. It's gone cold again. I don't have a microwave, so I can't nuke the shit out of it so I can drink it hot again. Contemplating putting it back in the almost empty pot to reheat it. I'm the only one home, so it's not like anyone else will have to drink it. Hmmmm... I think I will, and just scrub the pot extra well afterward. *Ended up drinking it cold... o_O

A favorite quote for today... comes from Chuck Wendig. "Profanity is my oxygen." Yup...

Actually, I have a second favorite quote... comes from Stephen Blackmoore (also via Twitter...):
"Today I vow to be happy and positive. Just as soon as I gut some random motherfucker for breathing. Then it's all unicorn shit and handjobs."

One of my favorite things... Is Ghirardelli's white chocolate powder. Get some, put it in your coffee & tell me it's not just the best thing ever.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Work, do dishes/clean house, drink coffee, tab meds for Britt in her drug guide, poke all the bloggers I love but haven't talked to in ages.

A peek into my day... Heading to the beach at Boulevard Park as soon as this is posted. There will be some housework done, possibly a walk around Lake Padden with Britt if she's feeling up for it after clinicals. Back to work tonight for seven days... ick. Also, I must find something to make for dinner tonight that doesn't have curry in it. I've been told that I cook too much curry... as if there could ever BE such a thing. Hm.

And here, for your express viewing pleasure, is the pic I jacked from Hippy Jersey Devil from her post this morning that got me all up on my soap box to begin with. Seriously though, please adopt if you're looking for a pet. Don't support the people who make their livings off of an animal's ability to procreate. It's disgusting. It's wrong. It's inhumane.

Also, I'm talking specifically about breeders here, not just anyone whose pet has puppies, kittens, whatever and decides to sell/give away the ones they can't keep. However, spaying/neutering your animal is a rather good idea. But this is a whole 'nother post altogether.

Point being: Adopt, don't shop!

Please vist The Simple Woman's Daybook to see all the other participants! <3

XOXO

Random blatherings to get myself back into blogging.

There's a bunch of stuff I should be doing right now... but I'm still kind of not wanting to, so I'm poking about here instead. ^-^
First exciting thing of the day: I got the two books I ordered from Amazon, written & published by none other than the lovely lady behind Witchin' in the Kitchen. Recipes for Ostara & Recipes for Beltane. I'm so excited, I could pop. ^-^ I plan on curling up with them later this afternoon & planning out my meals for these two holidays, making grocery lists for them & what not, so I'm all ready for once (ha!)

I feel like I've been crazy busy, but I don't really think I have been. I figured out how to fix the garbage disposal (thank you interwebs) & why the dishwasher was suddenly trying to fall over. I've crossed many, many things off my "To Do" lists, but my list keeps growing, so I'm feeling like I haven't accomplished much. I hate that feeling... o_O

Maybe I'll feel all accomplished once I do the dishes... Hmmm... This sounds familiar.

On the bright side, Britt found our poor, dead cell phone. It was missing for five or so days & we were considering filling out a death certificate for it, but do you know how hard it is to do that when there's no body??? Thankfully the little guy turned up. It had been hiding in plain sight, right next to the damn alarm clock... uh, oops?

Eh... I'm pretty out of stuff to ramble about. Soooo... until I have something better to talk about, I think I'm gonna go curl up with my new books. <3

Hope y'all are having a lovely week & I shall hopefully be back soonish. ^-^

XOXO

Happy Imbolc!

Happy Imbolc my darlings! =D

Today is such a wonderful day! We're half way through the Winter, almost to Spring. I love the Winter. I love the dark, the introspection... the feeling of everything sleeping, resting, renewing, waiting... But I am so excited for Spring, I might pop. Spring bursts forth after the Earth has a chance to chill out (no pun intended... o_O) and rejuvenate from all the hard work she's done in the past year. And burst forth she does!

It's like a dam bursting almost... it starts with a trickle... almost unnoticeable. A crocus here... some snowdrops there... tiny buds on the trees, so small you might not see them at all.

And then WHAM!

Spring explodes, the dam bursts wide & everything is filled with colors & smells of newness. How fucking awesome? Totally awesome.

Sooooo... What are you doing today (or yesterday or tomorrow or whenever) for Imbolc? Is there anything you do every year? Do you just wing it & do what you feel like? =D

I tend to fall into the last category of "winging it". I try to plan things to do, make a list of stuff I'd like to buy (usually candles are on this list...), but never make it to the store. Or the holiday I'm wanting to buy stuff for falls in between paydays and I have no money... lolz... story of my life, that. So anyways, I just wing it. ^-^

This usually works better for me anyways. I go in with an idea, a half formed thought, a daydream, and then weave my magic from there. I love it, it's terribly satisfying. ^-^

Sometimes I wish I were better at planning out rituals so I could write them down in my BOS... but that just doesn't seem to work for me... I partially love this & partially hate this, but it's the way it is & I've stopped fighting myself & have accepted it. ^-^

So! On my docket for today, in honor of Imbolc & becuase I love myself & my home & my family, it's cleaning day. Yay!

All the windows are thrown open, letting in the chilly, wonderful smelling air. I'm making a list of things that need to be done to get my home clean. And I mean holy-hella-uber clean. It's strangely become almost a ritual to me to deep clean our home. If feels like sacred space to me, when everything is well taken care of. I feel like when I keep my home clean, I have more room in it for things like laughter, joy, crafting & magic. When it's messy or dirty (like now), everything feels smothered & the energy is sluggish... to say the least. Blech.

Onto cleaning! Which, of course, is always accompanied by music, dancing around my apartment & loud singing... I almost pity my neighbors... almost. ^_~

Well then, I'm off. I hope you all have a most wonderful day today, whether you're celebrating Imbolc or not. I feel myself bursting with love & positive energy, the likes I haven't felt for weeks... or months. So I'm sending it through the aether to all of YOU. You who are my family, friends, loved ones, support group & cheer squad. You who give me lots of reasons to be happy & give me inspiration, whether mundane or magical. I madly love all y'all, and hope you can feel me smiling at you through your computer screen & giving you hugs & hearing me laugh with complete and utter joy.

Imbolc blessings!

XOXO





PS... Thank you to everyone who gave me words of encouragement in my last post. I fucking <3 you. And I'll be outta there on June 19. W00t!

This is ridiculous... (rant warning)

I'm so upset, I'm near tears. I called out sick from work last night, but my manager apparently doesn't use her cell phone on weekends & didn't get the message I left for her. Therefore, I got a call this afternoon from her asking why I decided not to show up for work last night.

Um, what?

I told her I left her a message. She told me I'm not supposed to use her cell on weekends, but her pager. Then she told me that she'd checked her cell, and there was no message from me. So essentially I get a no call, no show on my record. Fanfuckingtabulous.

It would have been nice to know I'm not only supposed to use her damn pager on weekends, but that I'm also supposed to call or text our pseudo-manager. Awesome.

When I first started, we called out sick to the Staffing office. Then, the ball got dropped & we had to call our staffing lead, who is kind of like our mini-manager. OK. Not a problem. Then, we were told we have to call out to our manager (so she can grill us on why we're sick). This is also fine, but now I'm told I need to call all of the above? Why the hell should I have to call all three places now to call in sick? This is completely asinine. On top of this, I'm apparently the only person who didn't know my manager doesn't carry her damn cell on weekends. Please pardon my lack of inherent knowledge of my manager's order of communicative devices, depending on day of the week.

Since my first job at 15, I have never, never not called out if I wasn't going to be there, and it's always been far sooner than the 2 hrs before shift rule. Always.

It's irritating to me that she expected me to know to use her fucking pager instead of cell phone (which she's previously claimed never leaves her side & to always call it), but the thing that I'm actually angry about is her claim that I didn't call her or leave her a message.

Fucking enraged at this. And hurt. I mean I know we're almost worthless to her as people, but really? This is even lower than I expected of her. Of all the shit she's thrown my way, this is the most insulting. And the best part? Even though I've got proof I was on the phone with her phone for 52 seconds on Sunday at 09:41 am, it doesn't matter. Because she's never wrong. Even when she is.

Organization Time!

The Mortician's Wife has issued a challenge! And although she's about half way through her challenge to herself, I'm joining in. I've been ruminating on how disorganized my apartment is... I can easily blame it on my lack of storage, cupboards, shelves, whatever. Or on my sweety, whose nursing books, notebooks, homework, random school shit, whatever, take up half the living room. Or that I've got too much craft shit for such a tiny apartment. However, the real reason our place is always such a fucking catastrophe is because we're disorganized & don't do the little things each day that need to be done in order for the mountains of dishes & laundry not to pile up. I'm hoping that getting some help getting organized will help get me motivated to keep things up better. ^-^

Also, there's the MOVE, looming ever closer. I've set a deadline for this. We'll be renting the truck for two days. June 30th we'll load up and then July 1st we'll drive down to Portland & unload. I feel good about having this date set, having a concrete deadline to work towards. I desperately want this move to go as smoothly as possible, so I know that getting my shit together & getting organized is key to this desire.

Thank gods & goddesses that there's a lady out there who is gifted with organizational skills! =D

Well then. This is Day 1's post, although I'm considering  yesterday Day 1.

Day 1 was making a list of pros & cons to doing this challenge. I've been mulling over these for the past few days, but I'm just now putting my pen to paper, so to speak. ^-^

PROS:
*I'll have a place for everything, and I'll actually know where it is when I need it.
*I'll have less mess to deal with, because I'll have places to put things, and hopefully be able to weed out things I truly do not need.
*I'll feel better. It's true. When my house is a mess, I'm a mess. When my house is clean and organized, I feel mentally more stable & far happier. All the antidepressants in the world don't make me feel as good as I do when my house is loved & well cared for.
*I feel like crafting, painting, writing, etc. when my house is clean. When it's a mess, I don't want to do anything but hide under my covers in my bed.

CONS:
*This will take work & dedication. Sometimes I'm incredibly lazy, and don't want to do anything.
*I'm good at getting things done (once I actually get around to doing them), but terrible at keeping them up. This is why my house continually cycles from clean for a few days to a disaster for a few weeks.

I feel my pros decidedly trump my cons, which are bad habits I need to eradicate from my life anyways. What better place & time to start?

And with that, we're on to Day 2!
Here I go, wish me luck! =D

XOXO

SNOW

Just a quickie before I dash off to a friend's house to help her print photos at the drug store so she can make a collage for her hubby for their anniversary. ^-^

Guess what?!?!?!?!?

It's SNOWING!!! =D

I ate my first snowflakes of the year this morning when I got home from work. ^-^

For some reason, watching the snow fall relaxes me... unless it's a howling blizzard of course. Then not so much. ^_~

Anywho! My ridiculously over-caffeinated self is off to print pictures. Hope you all are having a fantastic day, and hopefully I'll be awake enough at work tonight to write a proper post. ^-^

XOXO
