What happens to the poor people who fall for this?

Oh the Weather Outside is Frightful

 


And how! I dont know about anyone else, but I have a sleet/snow mix coming down hard at my place! I was hoping to do some errands tonite, but I think that might be out. Its a good night to stay in and start packing my stuff. Still havent found a place, but hopefully by the time I am done packing my boxes up I will have a new home for said boxes

Ok, I am better now

Ok ok.....So I have to be out of my cozy apt in two weeks. I have some good leads on places and should be getting $2000 at the time I turn in my keys. The best part??? I DONT HAVE TO CLEAN THE PLACE!!!!

Motherfuckin Developers!

 

UGH!!! When my apt building was sold last month to a developing company I e-mailed them right away and asked them POINT BLANK if there were any plan to do a condo conversion and this is the e-mail I got back TWO weeks ago

So what do I get on my door today? The above letter! And whats this bullshit about the first three people getting money for moving??

I am so fed up with what Ballard is becoming! Condos everywhere!

I shall rant about this for a while, so please bear with me. If anyone knows of any good places for rent please let me know!

Can You Stand It??

 

 

I rant a lot......mostly about things that probably arnt too significant to others or the world at large. And my favorite rant is how much I LOVE resale shops!!! Recycling and cheap quality clothes....Win for me, Win for the environment! Here are my latest deals: A cute Kavu beanie (retail $20) and a NEW pair of Nike trailrunners ($60 retail) Will I be running trails? Not likely, but my old tennis shoes are looking pretty sorry, and with another three months of nastiness coming our way, they will come in handy for tooling around. My grand total for this evening's shopping trip? $22 and change. Yeaaaaaaaa ME!

Cilantro is not a Vile Weed

This is probably one of the funniest websites someone has shared with me in a long time. Who doesnt like cilantro? mmmmmmm!!!

Somewhere, Elvis is Crying

This really happens.......middle aged guys....jammin out about their boner medicine.

WUV.....True Wuv..........

On again , off again, on again, off again. Thats been my M.O. in regards to the wagon of love (I didnt know there was a wagon of love either..). The whole online dating scene has been a bit sketchy for me.....so why do I continue to do it? Because I am lazy...hahah ......and even though I still havnt found THE guy, I seem to always come back for more. I dont know if there's an ideal time to start a relationship. Right now seems like as good of time as any; my schedule isnt booked out like it used to be, I am slowly getting back into shape.....and God Dammit...I am a sexy broad! So I am putting myself back out there once again and trying very hard not to let the cynical side of me show through too much. Wish me luck!

Happy New Year!

 

I am home safe, sober and already in my PJ's. Boring I may be, but I had great company, a few beers and saw a good firework show. Life is great. I hope the new year finds everyone happy and healthy!
