Ok, so i'm a dumbass. I washed mitch's phone in the washing machine and it worked afterwards, until it ran down it's charge. It will no longer charge. I don't want to get a new one, bc of cost and i don't want to sign a new contract. Does anyone have any ideas? Where to purchase a new cheap phone w/o a contract, where to get ahold of a used phone that works with cingular... any ideas are appreciated...
edit: i got an appointment with Dr. Barosso, but the first available was Sept. 5th. Suck.
God, I have just come to terms with the fact that I will never be able to decorate my house. It's sooo weird though, bc i did our little guest house and it was so much fun and looks sooo cute. But there is a level of intimidation and urgency in the big house (which is tiny) that it keeps me from being able to decide ANYTHING. I really hate the way the rooms in the house look, I hate me couches, everything needs color, I need to decide where to hang art, where to hang framed pics, ect. I can't even decide where to put my dresser or which dining table to put in the tiny dining are. I HATE THIS! The sad thing is that it's keeping me from doing things that I really want to do. I really want to throw myself a birthday/house warming party the weekend either before or after July 16th (I'll be 32), but I don't think it's going to happen bc I'm just so disgusted by my lack of decisiveness and satisfaction with the house.
I need an interior decorator, or at the very least a good friend, to say "hang that here", "move that to the garage, it's ugly", "buy some pillows"...
Hello everybody! (I always read that and think of Dr. Nick :)
I haven't posted to my LJ in awhile. I've been going through some things (those that know me well know what's been happening) and haven't had the spare energy/mental ability to update this poor thing.
So here it is in a nut shell.
Things are slow and busy and crazy and nice and good.
I bought a dress from J Crew for the wedding about two months ago. Went to try it on on Saturday and it fell off me. Realizing that i don't have time to alter it, i went to macy's to buy a replacement. Grabbed some sz 14 dresses, i went to the changing rooms and realized that those fell off me as well. Long story short, in the last two months i've gone from a 14 to an 8. AN EIGHT! I haven't been an 8 since i was like 23 or so. Needless to say, i stood in the dressing room and cried. Happy tears.
In other words, i spent way too much money. Oh well, i've lost 20-25 lbs. I deserve it!
Also, for mother's day Mitch bought me a new IPOD to replace the one that got stolen 6 months ago.
Took Maybelle to the vet to have her teeth cleaned. They have to put them to sleep to do it and she did not take well to that. I picked her up after work and she could barely stand or walk, she kept dozing off mid step. I got her home and she laid on the floor and whined the most pitiful whine for 5 hours until she finally went to sleep. I felt so bad for her, poor pups. But her teeth are BEAUTIFUL!!!
I've been playing with my new camera (tax return purchase) and have taken alot of photos of the house. It's coming together but still needs alot of work. The casita is up and running (my own mini B&B!) and Liz and Scott are staying there next weekend, see the photo set "Casita". House, Casita and other things: http://www.flickr.com/photos/fighttobreathe/
We're having the trees in the back yard (two oaks and two orange trees) trimmed and pruned and hopefully after that we'll be able to grow some grass there. I'm sick of the mud puddle! Even though i'm sure Maybelle loves it.
So other than weddings, diet restrictions, trying to learn to be a DECENT photographer, working on the house, taking care of the lil' lady pups, taking care of Mitchell, and him taking care of me, there isn't much going on.
Oh yeah! We saw 20 Love Songs at IBP last week, it was wonderful! I laughed, I cried, I laughed and cried at the same time... ALL FEMALES SHOULD TREAT THEMSELVES TO TICKETS... soooooo funny and true. IBP 20 Love Songs: www.infernalbridegroom.com
Sorry to vomit forth such a large update all at the same time, but i better do it while i'm in the mood or it's never gonna happen!
P.S. got any suggestions for a place to get a mani/pedi that's not too expensive, but is clean??? Gotta get one before Thursday...
My grandmother passed away last night around 8 o'clock. Joe and my mom were with her, My mom was reading to her, And she simply and beautifully slipped away.

Is anyone going anywhere near a foley's or a sephora today or tomorrow??? I need something, but am going to have no time or transportation to get there... I would totally pay you back, or even call ahead of time and have them put it on my card... anybody?
Mitch and I have been sick for the last week. We haven't been able to move anything due to the rain and illness, and now he works closing shifts for the rest of the week...
Needless to say, we are way behind schedule.
If anyone is free Saturday or Sunday and would be willing to help me move boxes, clothes, and two mattresses, i would totally buy the beer/wine/vodka and also make them dinner at the new house.
I just need some company and extra hands.
It wouldn't be any of the big stuff, ie:couches, fridge, dressers, ect. just packing some boxes, moving some boxes and clothing and mattresses and the small TV.
they told my g.mom yesterday and all she said was the she knew there had been something growing inside her and that it was bad. then my mom took her home and they had the talk they needed to have, that they love each other even if all they do is scream, and that all hard feelings from the past were forgiven. i don't know what is goign to happen now. i honestly think if she thinks it's goign to be painful and slow that she might just kill herself. she's a tough lady like that and was an RN for years... we'll just have to see.
My mother is on her way to pick up my grandmother to take her to the doctor so that he can tell her that she has less than a month to live. liver cancer that has metastasized already. my mom has known for 24 hours, my grandmother is about to find out, and i can't be there for either of them. i'm stuck here in houston. i can't be there for my mom, i can't be there to help her through this... all because of theatre. there is a time when you have to give up somethings that you love to do bc they are keeping you from doing the things that you NEED to do. i have never felt so ineffective and helpless and worthless. my poor mother.
Hey ladies: i need the following items, and i need to be able to get them soon, like today or tomorrow: a pair of horseshoe earrings one horseshoe necklace
all of them need to be large enough so that you can tell what they are from the audience it would be great if they were fake gold they must be located in houston they must be inexpensive
so, if anyone knows where i can find these items, i would greatly appreciate it!
