.what.me.change?.

this new blogger template thing is different...cooler looking for sure...i don't know why i haven't written here in a while. not much to say, i guess. and now that i'm kinda back, this whole thing has changed. good? sure. better? maybe. but sometimes you just like coming back to something that you know. but overall, the new look isn't bad at all...

i'm on my week vacation right now, just chillin in chicago. i love it here. i love not having anything too bad to worry about. i love being able to just do something and go somewhere within an hour's notice. i love just being by myself and walking the city. hopefully i can get a local job soon. the thought of flying out next week is torture. which reminds me, i have to book my flight for next week...this online travel reservations site is the slowing site around..you would think that since we have so many consultants as part of the company, that someone could make up a faster application. pwc did..why not now??! this thing is a piece of crap.

20 minutes later...

it really shouldn't be taking this long to buy a frickin plane ticket...

ok, so all my travel arrangements have been made. phew.

oh, i finally got us a lan line at the condo. woohoo!

any other updates?...oh, we painted the bedroom cherry cobbler. very red red. i love it. i think archie could take it or leave it. i still want to paint one more wall red, so maybe i can get to it this week/weekend...

i went through the horribly painful procedure of eyebrow threading yesterday...it was like i was sitting in the electric chair, aiding my own demise. seriously, for those of you who have no clue what i'm talking about....the thread-ee sits in a hairdresser chair, and puts her head back (this includes slouching, so the thread-ee's head actually is resting on the back of the chair)...then the thread-ee has to hold her eyelid and part of her forehead (the part that is above the eyebrow) taute, so that the thread-er doesn't have a hard time threading away the thread-ee's skin, along with the unwanted hairs. it is perhaps one of the most painful processes i've ever been through. granted, it only lasted 4 minutes, tops....but the pain in excruciating. this is why i have doubts about having my own kids. i mean, can i really push a living being out of me, and still be alive afterwards?
