As of late, it's been pretty effin' snazzy.

I decided to go with a Brother, sewing machine-wise, but I still haven't begun learning to use it yet.  I've been very busy.

I've spent a lot of time making good friends since Niki left.  I'll have to introduce her to all of them WHEN SHE VISITS  *AHEM*.  XD

Me and Alison (friend from work who recently quit) have begun a quest to find the best Irish pub's stew, and she's very excited to have a friend who likes the Disney channel.  XD  We're also filming a music video for our (soon to be chart topping) song "I'm on a Goat".

Young Bryan (also from work, but hasn't quit yet XD) is my newest best friend.  Hanging out with him is like being with my sister again.  I really missed that sort of wild freedom.  We romp through the woods, talk about what we think of... pretty much everything, and he's introducing me to the world of hippies.  XD  One of those hippies may in fact provide the very goat for me and Alison's video.  XD!!!!  Oh, and we're writing a story about foxgoose-goosefox.  Details on that will unravel as the tale does, I'm sure.

My great-grandmother (91) died last week, so I spent a week in West Virginia for the funeral.  All my gramma's kids were in the same room for the first time since my mom's wedding (1982).  It was really cool to have them all together like that.  I met a lot of family I'd never seen before.  And I realized just how big my family really is.  I'm one of forty-two great-grandchildren.

It was my first funeral, so I was really nervous and cried a LOT, and this 12 year old kid put suckers in the coffin.

I saw a road.  It was called Road Run Road.  I LOVED IT.

Cameron met a French Canadian.  From Russia.  He's offered him a hundred thousand dollar Jaguar and two thousand bucks a month to run this recording studio he's building in Montreal, watch his house there, something about importing alcohol in Florida, and maybe managing a hobby store.  Hopefully just not all at once.  XD  The place isn't quite built yet, and I think Cameron's getting his erm... audio degree or whatever you call it before this happens... but it's a pretty amazing opportunity.  I'm really excited for him.  ^-^

The band he's managing is sounding pretty damn good on their new record (I've been going to the studio while they recorded a bit) and they're in a battle of the bands at a local festival coming up.

I'm going on a camping trip this weekend that's going to be SUCH a blast.  There's like, a million concerts going on all night, tons of people will be there, and classes!  Young Bryan's teaching yoga, Mike (one of the six fired from work FOR NO REASON AUGH) is teaching jujitsu, so who knows what other cool stuff'll be there?  I can't wait!

Niki's online!  Yay!

So, I've decided I'm going to be a fashion designer.  ^-^  Organic, of course.  I'm working on deciding what sewing machine to buy, learning all I can about designing and making clothes, and being really insanely excited.

I'm going to keep a list here of great sources of info, supplies, etc.

• Etsy, where I'll most likely have my first store.
• Near Sea Naturals, organic fabric supplier.
• Fashion-Incubator, great info on starting a line, company, etc.

And last but certainly not least.

• ThreadBanger, the amazing youtube channel that makes it look as simple as it is.

1. Everything I love about fall starts to come (that would be a list in itself ^-^).
2. Along with my first paycheck.
3. The arrival of Wen (which I'm ordering today).
4. The ability to have a cup of high quality organic tea every day.
5. The ability to have a green smoothie every day (before my mom gets home).
6. The ability to buy myself or a friend something small without guilt.
7. Less time to worry about silly things.
8. Less time around my mother.
9. Feeling like I have a purpose.
10. Making more friends at work.
11. Me and my best friends all making more money (Cameron got more hours at work).
12. Seeing more sunrises.
13. Feeling more independent, less reliant.
14. Feeling healthier.
15. Gaining confidence from my job forcing me to be less shy, and seeing the results.
16. Feeling better about myself.
17. Being a better friend (because I can focus more on them when I when I'm with them, since I won't have my own problems distracting me.)
18. Getting to sample a new kind of cheese whenever I want (during my breaks, of course).
19. Seeing my store's chocolate section and allowing myself to indulge.
20. Buying amazingly prepared salmon (or chicken, or whatever else) during my lunch breaks.
21. Buying fresh, wild Alaskan salmon (or organic salmon imported from Ireland) and making sushi with Niki.
22. Seeing if the sushi at work is better than at Giant Beagle (it looks the same).
23. Going to the fondue restaurant.
24. And of course, the series that follows the end of lonelygirl15, The Resistance.  XD

Thaaat's right, folks!  I got the job!  I am officially a deli girl at the fancy grocery store.  XD  And I start right away!  My first training session is in three and a half hours. 

The interview went really well.  I was too excited to get nervous.  LOL  And everyone was really friendly.  All both of them.  XD  The hiring manager and the lady at the customer service desk. 

EIGHT BUCKS AN HOUR!  HELL.  YES.

^-^

Also, I seem to have made a friend on the bus.  This guy was at my stop and started talking to me.  I like meeting new people and everything, but it freaks me out when older guys know where I live.  Luckily he comes from the opposite direction to get to the bus stop.  But anyway, we talked some on the bus (your basic "What are you up to today?" sort of conversation) and then I saw him again on the way home.

He works at retard school near the mall and found out his "group" was going to the zoo today, so he was heading back home.  But yeah, out of fuckin' nowhere, he hands me this big picture of Wonder Woman.  I was utterly confused.  He said he was an artist and drew it (this was a print, which he said typically sells for like fifty bucks), and that he had planned on giving it to this girl he'd gone on a date with, but she never called him back.  Weird, right?  I made sure to throw my boyfriend's existence into one of the next topics just in case.  But yeah.  Nice guy.  Like an uncle, only kinda creepy.

Also.

There was an Englishman on the bus, and he was talking to the bus driver, and I had fun listening.  XD

Also.

I HAS A JARB!!!

Wish me luck with the meat slicer.  EEEE!
