Just a quick add on to my previous blog concerning a certain birthday boy--I forgot to mention that you are so wonderful that you willingly walked thru SaveMart for 15 minutes helping me look for eyelash curler refills. That is the kind of wonderful person you are! Ladies, this one is a real catch! Well, I am officially unemployed as of right now. I can't believe I no longer have a job. Dear goddess, what have I done? I left a job with major stress and crappy pay and a long commute made worse by the fact that they are increasing tolls 90% soon. Thankfully I'll miss out on that. My boss offered me my job back if I ever decide to move back here. That was nice of her. And she wrote a really nice letter of recommendation for me. So now I am unemployed...sigh...And moving day is nearly upon me and none of the stuff I am taking with me is packed. Although, to be fair to myself, I can't pack my toothbrush, deoderant and clothes before I leave. And how the hell did I accumulate so much crap in one year. I am leaving Chicago a year to the day that I came here last year and I have so much crap. Again. How did this happen? Oh well, hopefully I will find a new job soon that pays decently so that I can fly back and move all my crap into the imaginary but hopefully not for long apartment. I wish I didn't have to leave my plants. I decided to give them to Matthew as a housewarming gift since he is moving into an apt in the city next week. My mom and I are going to go see it on Friday. I think he is in for a BIG surprise. He has no idea what it is like to live with other people who aren't related to him. And I can't wait to see what happens when it's time to do laundry. Well, off to bed for some shut eye. I have so much to do before I move that I'll have to get up by 8 every day to get it done...sigh...so much for sleeping in.

What has happened to my blog? There are no entries since the 9th. Bad. Where are the blogger fairies who come at night and write funny, insightful and brilliant entries? Where are they? My blog is long overdue for some funny, insightful and brilliant entries. Ahem. Next order of business will be my own personal tribute to Jason the Birthday Boy. Happy Birthday to you my first ever band geek boyfriend! Bet you're glad I posted that on my blog. And the one who always smells so yummy and is quick to offer hugs and a shoulder to cry on. And the one who is always a gentleman and who will absolutely make a wonderful spouse and father someday. A huge HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you, Jason! Can't wait to see you in a couple of weeks.

Blogging is starting to turn into all of my other previous attempts to "journal." That was for Gwen b/c I know how she loves to verb words. hee hee. I am totally exhausted after the second consecutive Sunday spent at a quilt show. It was fun but I am so tired and I didn't get anything done and I still can't find my resume and I still haven't packed a damn thing and moving day is in 21 days. BLAH! And I had a scheduled sick day for tomorrow (you don't get paid for sick time after you quit but you get all your vacay time paid) and I am the idiot that volunteered to come in b/c there are a lot of patients scheduled for Monday (which is quite unusual) and I didn't want C. to do it all herself. I am so dumb. Whatever.

And b/c moving day is only 3 weeks away I am riddled with doubts about moving and I have no idea what the hell I am doing. What am I doing? What? Can someone help me? I did start a new quilt last week. I only work on it a Q.G. but it was something nice to start instead of doing applique. I am terrible at invisible applique. Maybe I should just do red work b/c then I wouldn't have to worry that anyone can see it since it's red work, after all. Why am I even telling yout this? I think it's time for a shower and bed b/c this is going nowhere fast.

I.Hate.My.Life. What is this? This is not the life I want. BLEAH! The countdown to moving day begins and my family has turned into supremo a**holes. As if they weren't already. If I didn't resemble my parents I could totally concince myself that I am adopted. Really. I had intended to tell you all about the lovely quilt show I attended on Sunday with my grandma but I'm in a horrible mood and it's about to hail and thunder or something so I will save the wearable fabric art fashion show and the flower power applique for another time. I saw a gorgeous quilt that was selling for $1000. Here comes the storm--must go.
