silent sigh

Went swing dancing for the first time since I’ve been home. God that felt good. How I managed 3 months in the bay area without one night of dancing I have no idea. If I wanted to I could go out every night or the week, to multiple venues, but somehow it’s just so hard [...]

i will make you hurt

Coming down from stress is almost as bad as going through the stress to begin with. Everything I’ve been fighting to hold in comes out and even though everything’s pretty much okay now I’m still shuddering and crying and sighing and wishing I never had to get out of bed, wishing at the very least [...]

…wow

I can’t even begin to explain this whole deal now, but let me tell you that lately I have had many stories to tell.
What I *can* say is that I got a second job, and will finaly (hopefully) be able to fully support myself.
Other than that, I’m afraid I can’t publish what else is going [...]

just when i think i’m out..

..a whole lot more shit comes raining down.
But, in efforts to not spend too much time talking about other people, I will refrain from detailing the current battles with me and my ex-subletter. Suffice it to say I’m annoyed, and therefore can’t enjoy the fact that my dog Molly is still alive and doesn’t have [...]

dumpy

This morning we found the cat batting around an open bottle of ibuprofen on the floor. We also found orange marks across the linoleum where Molly, my aging beagle, had licked up most of them. I forced a mixture of hydrogen pyroxide and water down her throat until she coughed up a foamy mess. Upon [...]

As most of you know, my last name is Twelves.
I was born at 11.12 am.
For most of my life, I lived in a house numbered 111. And if you really want to start fabricating coincidences, my first home was 704, which adds up to 11.
Quite frequently, people hear my last name and want to be [...]

all here (mostly)

Here’s a few short blubs on what’s new:
95% of our things are in the new place, still in boxes, because we have no furniture, and therefore no place to unpack them all. I have to go back tonight and get the rest of it, plus watch Nip/Tuck for the last time.
The cat is [...]

still moving

Today is basically the last day we have to get our stuff over to the other apartment, and lots of things aren’t even boxed up yet. The more I pack, the more cluttered it gets, and it doesn’t help that I’m basically doing the whole job myself since Joe hurt his shoulder and can’t lift [...]

please leave a message

Signed the lease today, we’re officialy moving on on the 8th. So I’m starting the great move this weekend, and it will last until the 15th, when we’re required to leave our current place.
Aside from our clothes, books, and electronics, we own a desk chair, some lamps, and a bed frame. So, yeah, we need [...]
