Well, at least these past days have not been a complete waste. Been quite busy with lots of stuff… Good not to think too much.
Friday night was the pits because of migraine, so basically went to dewll on my cave with lots of ice covering my ice and forehead. Frozen thoughts as a result, best news in months.
Saturday began early, sort of. Groundel invited for breakfast, and from there we went to my house for a cleanup frenzy. No water, but since it rained cats and dogs got the idea to fill up all containers with water from the rain and so… Filling, emptying, filling… gpoing upstairs, cleaning, emptying, going downstairs, filling… You get the idea… Working the whole afternoon, later on I would realize that yes, my arms are definitively there! Tril called for a movie outing, so at least the night was entertaining. Movie and dinner. Wheeeee!
Monster House: Wow! It has been a long time since previews didn’t actually tell what the movie is about… I mean, yes, duh, it’s a monster house literally but the story behind it is so nice! In a Ravenloft kinda way… And the fact that the ending credits has a Siouxie & the Banshees song is the cherry of the sunday. You have this neighborhood in which kids are always out playing around… And as all neighborhoods, there is an old house that looks wicked, and on which lives an old grouch who would not let kids step into his lawn. “Get off my lawn” he would scream, chasing away kids, taking their toys and braking them. Signs of beware and keep off were stuck all around the creepy house… The boy next door (living in front of the house) as every nosy neighbor do, always keeps an eye on the wherabouts of the old guy. He knows that if a toy falls in his land, an unfortunate kid will loose it forever… after receiving quite a good set screaming and kicking too! Well… his best friend appears with a shining new basketball, and while chubby manifests himself the ball lands on the old guy’s lawn. The quest to get the ball begins… and I wont go any further so I don’t spoil it for you. It is a nicely written tale, that keeps girls smart, boys curious and wives evil. ‘Nuff said.
Sunday morning began with washing my hair and then the not so mandatory but what the heck two hours of ironing it so it is silky smooth straight… Awww… Well, gotta keep it neat if I flash the unnatural colors… cannot get away with unkept and unnatural, that’s a zombyfied no-no. Finally tumbled breakfast, and began organizing all the clothing that was outside my closet… The afternoon began with heavy rain. Groundel called after 2 to let me know he was soaking wet while trying to reach my house, stuck in the nearby pharmacy. Went to get him, he looked funny as yes, he was soaking wet, and standing against the wall while staring at the rain as a wet cat would… Mamauuu o algo… LOL Anyway, back home so I would finish my closet and gave the wet cat some dry clothing and breakfast. Didn’t have long pants, so shorty shorts had to do… The results were hazardous for kids but well… At least the shorts were not wet. ;) Anyway, Tril called reaching 5pm but had to decline as I was going out to do the laundry at Raven’s. Duty before fun, but I’ll take a raincheck. At Raven’s the back to school frenzy was in all its glory, and while she scrapbooked the notebooks, laundry was served. By 9:30 had to call for a time out, as migraine striked and had to go home… working Monday was ahead…
Situation at home: Auntie still not talking to me. Actually trying to annoy me with some things but I’m just getting off the way, staying on my confined room. Kitties misbehaving but happy in their own way (Food, drink, toys, human slaves and litter… What else could they want? Freedom? You will see Roxie turning up her nose towards that thought!). Nothing else of note…
House situation: Gotta find an electrician to check thing and the reason why there is no light. Must wait for the next 15th for that matter… Doors should be done next weekend. I need to do a round of bug killer so the bugs get the point that humans are to invade their lair. Then to tear down closets and the rotten cabinets. Need to get dome planks to keep the kitchen’s sink up while tearing down everything else. And after that a final Clorox cleanup to make sure everything is neat. With that done I will try to move almost everything over there. It’s a matter of keeping the chronology moving… Next on the expense lane is the water tank (December 2006) followed by the closet doors (February 2007), followed by the cabinets (December 2007) followed by the floor downstairs (December2008) followed by the upstairs bathroom ( December 2009) followed by downstairs bathroom (December 2010).
Feelings situation: Still sad, but not dwelling on it… What I don’t do no one else will do for me, so there’s no sitting around just wishing. Life goes on.
Friends situations: Groundel should start college next week. Still on a job quest. Raven in back to school mayhem… Houston, we lost her… LOL Coriolis, had me worried for a while but he was just on Outter Planes (does he thinks he is Elminster or something?)… And Trilogy is trying to keep pace with me… Still, he needs to get I don’t run around having fun but actually doing things... I am grown up, even if he doesn’t like it. I wonder if Karah already had her baby… I also wonder about NoName, he is taking the vanishing act seriously! :P
Life situation: Getting info on studies matters, so January is more certain. Too many expenses and too many unsolved mysteries right now. Want to travel but seems that is a wishful thought in itself… Still, need to do so because I need a break from this island and its ongoing sickness.
Work: Need to go to Yauco and Aguadilla but Im stuck because of rain and no gas for the car… No transportation available either… It sucks… But, whatever. Dance to the beat that you are given… While trying to make things better.
