It’s a beautiful Sunday. Well, it’s a cold dreary miserable Sunday, but it’s Sunday and I have been napping and reading and shmooping around so I like it.
GUESS WHAT? MEG MY BIRTHDAY TWIN SENT ME A BIG BOX OF GIFTS! She did! I will list them all later because at the moment I don’t want to go linking everything because i’m so lazy but suffice it to say that my first course of action was to run out and buy a frame for the card (goshdarnit though, I am not good at measuring with my brain so I got the wrong size but whatever) and then take over the couch and start reading my new book because I had just finished the book that Heidi sent me. Which was excellent. And the new book from Meg is excellent. So far, so good on the new book front .

We finally paid all our rent for the past… well, April, May, June, and July. So we paid four months worth of rent on Friday because I finally got a big fat backdated cheque from EI. Of course after having paid all our bills, the cheque is no longer even plump, but yay our bills are paid! The phone is turned back on! The cellphone got a free upgrade and now there’s a cameraphone which explains the flickr image to the left (at the moment it’s a picture of a lobster claw that was sitting all alone in the bottom of the lobster tank at Sobeys– my proof to the world that lobsters are horrible mean creatures that will rip each others’ claws off because they’re meanies).

Rob also found my Stitch n Bitch book but I had already started on the blanket thanks to Sabrina, who emailed me the pattern I was looking for.

I also bought a few beads and some wire for a try-out of a wedding craft (yes I know our wedding is a year away but I’m anxious and don’t want to be stuck beading things the night before the wedding or, as my darling friend Michelle so wisely said, I will end up walking down the aisle with fake birds glued to my arms and beads up my nose, talking to the birds because I will have gone crazy) so wish me luck on that one. If it works I will take a picture and it will be up here somewhere.

I think that’s all for now. Wee-ow, what a lot of stuff! Oh wait, I have to leave you with one of my favourite quotes from the ever-so-awesome Home Movies which is my favourite cartoon yes I watch cartoons. But it’s better than the Simpsons, I tell you.

Jason: One night I walked into my parents’ room, and they saw me naked.
Melissa: You were naked?
Brendon: Jason, why were you naked?
Jason: I love it.
