Things I Love Thursday
And so Thursday comes again. I meant to do a TILT last week but I started and didn’t get a chance to write much else other than half a line.
Having money since it really allows me to breathe a little. To be able to buy gas, groceries, necessities and non-necessities. Because the financial strain is not so tight, it feels nice to not worry about everything and have the possibility of another breakdown.
Funny stories with my family about their childhood and whatnot are very endearing to me. So many things I don’t know about my aunts and uncles and grandparents. My mum was so very mischievous and tomboyish in her youth. Grandpa was a flourishing businessman. Etc. etc.
Weyerbacher’s Merry Monks Golden Ale cuz this is the sh*t. Tastes like a light beer (though NOT like something watered down) & packs a mean punch with an ABV of 9.3%
BUT the taste of the alcohol is WELL-MASKED so please drink carefully because you won’t taste the alcohol too much but that doesn’t meant there isn’t a lot of it in there. So the drunkenness will sneak up on ya if you don’t watch how much is drunk
Et aussi: Slim Jims (as gross as they are); lax work day; being able to have PLANS to go out; finding awesome stuff; reading; books are delicious; hand-mixers; Polaroid-esque pictures, random rambling conversations with family in California; SPACE HEATERS; kittycat antics; hot tea & cocoa; mail for me!
For some reason, I sometimes think about Vegemite working at a beer warehouse. Brewer’s yeast…
And I still have QUITE a few pictures to upload here and to Poupée. Been reading Dan Brown lately and I am enjoying the rollercoaster-esque ride. Gotta get more books! Not to mention I’ve been really restraining myself from purchasing more than 1 volume of Yotsuba&! at a time. SOOOOOOOO AWESOME. Tis all. Will have to blog again when I get home so I can upload more pics. A bleak morning turned into a bright and sunny noontime
Settled. At Work. Etc.
This is was pretty overdue. Thanks for all the well-wishing for the move! It was smooth and quick. Not even a traffic jam (not to mention nothing is broken either)! I’ve been home for a little over/under two weeks now and things have finally died down. There was quite a bit of hectic errand-running when we got here but Tomato is at work and so am I. Hopefully everyone got their new year’s postcard from my by now…if not…I’m out so sorry! Next year! On a similar note, thanks to all the blogging lovelies for your Christmas cards!
Hum, shop just opened so it’s rather quiet. Waiting for all the beer folk to come in and get their booze on…though it’s about 11:30AM and HOPEFULLY everyone who boozes is at WORK.
Hnn. We got to see my uncle’s baby the other night and he is such a DARLING little boy. Though…don’t know who he takes after. Doesn’t look very much like either of his parents
We also got to check out the outlets by his home and picked up a sweater & two striped henleys for about $45 Tomato got a really good bargain [$140 -> $64] in this nice jacket from Puma! SWEET. Gotta get this stuff on pupe.
Other than that, trying to catch up on LETTERS. I’ve spent quite a bit of time at home but for some reason or other when I actually pull out pen and paper, I end up having to go somwhere…hurr
Anyway, since I’m bored at work, I’ll get to work on those.
Kitcats are well. There was a bit of a hiccup at first with Apple not using the toilet so we put an elevated box where he kept peeing on the floor
and he’s stopped. But this also meants we’re re-training them to go on the toilet. FUNTIMES. They are AOK
they even sleep on the bed with us (haven’t done this since last winter!!). They’re at home being sleepy and cute.
Hum, gonna go and pretend to work or something. It’s intensely boring without customers to wait on…INTENSELY. Later later! Will have some pikchars up later.
PS: OMGGGGGGGGGGGG. Found a PURIKURA machine at the Korean plaza by the parents’ house! CAN NOT WAIT TO USE IT.
