got to catch up on sleep finally!  *just* woke up...
AND my old navy bras were shipped today! 
now for shower and more nothing.

The sheer beauty of Pachelbel's Cannon can always make me tear up, without fail.  If I had walked down an aisle on my wedding day, it would have been to that...

there's been a weird noise in the bedroom since we got home last night and it's been bothering me all day. kritterfox  said it just sounded like water running through something, but i think it sounds more metallic.  it just occurred to me exactly what it sounds like... a smaller version of the background noise in the school (or hospital, i can't remember which) in the original 'silent hill' game. 
now i'm just waiting for the bizarre little see-though ghostie things to come nom me. 

Happy happy birthday to my fantastic wonderful amazing husband (and most recently, caretaker and babysitter), kritterfox !!  I love you baby!

i need a realtor for the naperville/aurora/this area... any suggestions?

i seem to have stumbled (quite literally) upon a whole new level of pain.  how wonderful!

To get out of bed and be blindsided by all of this on LJ... I didn't know Furp as well as some, but I knew he was a good man and my friend (and he made a mean slurm).  He will be missed so very dearly by so many.  It just doesn't seem possible...
There are no words right now.

chris and i just walked upstairs (well, i crawled, chris walked) and toured one of the two bedrooms available for rent.  if we move when our lease is up in june, we'll be able to change for free - so i think we're going to do it.  the extra storage space and living space would be wonderful, and the layout is pretty decent.  they told us that when the time comes, they'll even look around the general buildings we're already located around so it's not too much of a move, and we should know about two months before hand if an apartment will be available (there's lots right now, but if we change apartments before our lease is up it would be $500 in transfer fees).

so, if people could possibly start saving some boxes and newspapers for us, we would appreciate it and can come pick them up whenever... as soon as we know when it'll happen (hopefully it WILL happen), i'll probably ask for help packing and cleaning as well.  we will be hiring movers to get things out of this apartment and into the new one (hey, ohana - who did you guy use and were they reasonable?)

yays for more space!!! 

This is kind of fun... I got it in an e-mail from my mom. Mine is a little scary, and you have to wonder if you're marked at birth by "your" song.

Do you know the #1 song the day you were born? (No, you don't.) Go here,
add your name to the bottom of the list, put your birthday next, and put
the song title beside it, and hit reply to all.

Mine is October 2, 1977: "Star Wars Theme/Cantina Band" by Meco

and it is done.  a new age has begun - one of hope - more hope and than i've felt in so many years. 
we have to understand that it will not be easy or fast, but it will come. so very very happy - and for the first time in too many years to count, i am not embarrassed to be from this country.

it's not even 10 and i've already been up, washed up in the sink (i am soo looking forward to taking a real shower again) - sadly, washing my hair will have to wait until i have someone esle around to help. i then put on clean clothes, braved the narrow passage way to the blinds to open them, ate breakfast, almost fell off the bed, and then posted to my classes... and now... now i wonder why i rushed through everything this morning as i sit here 1/2 asleep the rest of the day.

there is the cutest little ball of black and white lupin fluff sound asleep next to me... he's hardly left my side since the surgery... and usually only when chris is here to watch me for him...

definately my kitty.

i now have a cast for 2 weeks and percocet... now bed

so i guess i finally slept last night... and the vast majority of this morning. woke up long enough to put in a movie this morning and zonked back out. just got up and to the bathroom for the first time today.
it's hurting like hell to get up and move my leg - but since i have to go to the doctor tomorrow, it has to be done. still insanely tired, so i'll probably go back to sleep if i can... especially since it doesn't hurt when i'm dead to the world.

Happy happy day to the most wondrous devin!!!

just 19 small tiny hours until i call to find out what time my surgery is tuesday... scared to death.

and just for the sake of putting something else in this entry - the belatrix lestrange bust chris got me for christmas is HOTT! (yes, that's right, two t's...)

it starts April 30 at the museum of science and industry... and i should be up and able to walk by that point... who wants to go with me?

edit: i just looked and it's $26 for tickets for non-members (and sadly, out membership expires this month). they just opended up the ticket blocks, so maybe if a group wants to go, we could plan something soon for a weekend while things are still open?
