- Lunchtime web surfing! An hour is not enough to catch up on all my “dailies.” I’ll just use my break to stalk Trixie this time :) #

- I don’t understand people in general. Things that are so clear/practical/rational seem to be completely lost on them. It baffles me daily. #

Sooo….
I like starting my morning with a blog post. It focuses me and somehow sets the tone for the day.
(I was forced out of bed earlier than now, but kind of puttered around the house until this moment, wishing the noise coming from across the street would stop so I could sleep a couple more hours. Alas, no. Hope that doesn’t keep me grouchy all day!)
Soo…
I have moved out of my apartment [because I'm being garnished for Student Loans and couldn't afford rent anymore] and back in with Thee Boyfriend [because the only places within my new income bracket are roach infested and crime ridden].
It’s not horrible here. He drives me to work, cooks fabulous meals and does the dishes. But, since I can pay so little for rent/utilities/household items, I have a list of weekly chores that include vacuuming, dusting, laundry and cat box duty. It wouldn’t be so bad except that I’m often utterly exhausted from work stress and accomplishing them according to his wants/schedule is often difficult for me mentally and physically. (He is the “make the bed immediately upon getting up” type and I’m the “I’ll do it before company comes over” type.) Really, everything would be fine if he’d just remember I have wants and needs too and that I am much more likely to make sure his are met when some of mine are!
I turned the Guest Room into sort of an office for me. All of my furniture from the apartment is in it, my clothes are in the closets and I’m in the process of hanging my posters/paintings. I need to get some new blinds though. I’ve set up my desktop too. Once I get my personal appearance a little more together (I really need a shower and to put on clothes instead of jammies), I will turn the Voyeur Cams on >;) I love the room and sort of want to “debut” it, heh. The walls are carrot orange, the curtains are pale pink, my bedspread is buttery yellow, my desk is kelly green… it sounds like an odd colour combination, but it works- very modern, bold, citrus looking. I am excited about having carpet after so many years of hardwood floors. Crazy, perhaps, but my feet feel better and I can comfortably lay on the floor to pose for photos and do camshows. :)
To be honest, the whole house is terrific, even if not my style. I am very lucky. There’s a formal dining room, spectacular bar, adorable kitchen, a hot tub, big screen tv… much more than I have ever had or could realistically expect to own. I don’t know that I am the kind of person that can ever be completely content or happy, but this is good for me… it is ’soothing’ in a way. I’m definitely not stable financially, but at least I don’t have to worry about necessities like how I’m going to pay for food or getting new work pants when my thighs rub a hole in them.
I feel like a heel when I complain. I am ok. So many people are not. Not even close.
Red Rose = Deflowered
I feel a little twitchy after reading about Karen Fletcher’s obscenity case: http://avn.com/law/articles/31669.html. I think even those of us that are vigilant about complying with the law have to be afraid now. Is your text obscene? Are you “using an interactive computer service to distribute obscene materials?”The broadness of the definition, the way it could spiral out of control… I understand why so many of my favourites have seemingly disappeared from their old haunts.
Y Kant TE Read
I’ve done a crap job of keeping track of the books I have read with Library Thing. I didn’t intend to write any reviews, but it is a terrific way to find other novels I’d enjoy and to prevent buying any duplicates.
I was reading The Island by Heather Graham, but I lost it in my move. It is just as well, because I was a bit past the halfway mark and still waiting for something to happen. (Yeah, not one of her better efforts…)
Well, now, I simply couldn’t bear to be bookless, so I replaced it with Left To Die by Lisa Jackson.
I should be able to lose myself in a nice little serial murder case. *nods*
