So starting Feb 1st I plan on blogging everyday for the year 2010. Should be fun. I'm also contemplating a blog for "magikjaz creations" - but we'll see how that goes.
Been doing alot of reading of my old journals we rescued from my mom's house. there's lots in there I don't remember and lots I do. I was such a silly girl. I'll have to get brave and share some things someday. (I say that alot i know) Today was fun tho cuz i read something I had completely forgotten and it shocked the hell out of not only me but a really good friend when i told her (i had to tell someone!!!) good times lol
Finishing up my piano scarf for the artfire order then working on 2 more. Tonight I'm also working on bottlecaps so I can get the resin poured by Sunday night hopefully and have new stuff for this weekend at the Rouge.
Connected with a couple more old friends on Facebook - including a guy i was madly crazy about way back when (but then i was crazy about them all lol) and I've been doing my best to reach out and connect with more people this year. After all we aren't in high school anymore. Old insecurities shouldn't come into play (but they sometimes do). I'll keep you posted on how it goes.
Okay - time to go throw in some laundry and take a nap. I'll catch you later.

taking a trip in the way back machine
The past few days I've been reading some old journals from my past. 1986 - 199 roughly. And a couple of 1991 entries. It's enlightening, embarrassing and ...well mostly embarrassing lol. I was such a child and I had no real social skills to speak of.

Jersey Boys
So we went with my mom and saw Jersey Boys tonight and it was fantastic. Excellent music. Interesting story. Phenomenal singing.
Beforehand we went to a new restaurant (for us) O Sushi in Dearborn on Michigan Ave.We had our usual - some red snapper, salmon and white tuna nigiri, spicy tuna maki and unagi maki. We also had 2 of their special rolls - Chicago roll which was spicy tuna and salmon with scallion and the Devil Kiss roll which was shrimp tempura with tuna, salmon, cucumber and spicy sauce. Oh! and Miso soup. All the rolls were fantastic and the soup was delicious. And while we were there they gave us a free mussel appetizer that was frigging AWESOME! I would definitely order it next time. And there will be a next time cuz we got a voucher for a free roll for the next time we dine in. yay!

I don't know if I'm sick or depressed ....
But I spent 17 hours sleeping last night/today. I fell asleep on the couch for about an hour at around 2AM. Woke up and putzed around before heading upstairs to bed and fell asleep around 3:30AM. Woke up briefly during the day for 15 minute increments but never left the bed until just after 8PM!!!! I know yesterday I was feeling crappy (it's that time of the month - plus i had a sore throat and my allergies were kicking in high gear) but I also know that when i'm depressed - and the whole saying goodbye to our childhood house HAS left me kinda depressed - I don't want to do much of anything but sleep. Combine that with all the money stress we're feeling lately and I just don't know.
But tomorrow night is Jersey Boys w/ my mom!!!! Dinner and a show - it doesn't get much better than that!! AND we know someone who is doing makeup so we might get a backstage tour tomorrow after the show!!! SO EXCITED!!!!! Merry Xmas to us!!!

So much for blog365
I guess I'll try blog334 lol (since I've missed most of January)
Things got a little crazy here for a quick minute. See, hubby and I are having major financial issues right now. In trying to juggle xmas gift giving and bill payments I ended up pissing off DTE by being about 10 days late in our payment and they sent us a shutoff notice around Dec 20th that we were going to be shut off by the 30th unless we paid our ENTIRE back due of almost $800!!! So we tried calling many numbers but they were all closed for the holidays or couldn't get us in before the end of the year. We thought we were screwed but hubby finally got someone at DTE Case management and they worked out a plan for us as long as we paid by Jan 4th. We thought we were in the clear. Turns out we were wrong.

Happy New Year!!!!
Happy 2010!!! Here's hoping this year is far better than the last.
I plan on taking inventory of the past year and what's in store for the future year, but right now my brain is mush from staying out far too late last night and all i wanna do is curl up on the couch and watch some Doctor Who today lol
(side note I'm gonna try blog365 again this year - wish me luck)

So much for NaBloPoMo
I was doing so damn good this year too :(
Oh well. Guess there's always next year. And I didn't even TOUCH my short story.
I would like to say that Thanksgiving was incredibly awesome - just me and the hubby and tons of food. And altho we're still suffering money-wise, we're gonna be okay. As long as we have each other.
And, side note, I'm prolly the worst sister ever. My sister called me today on her way home from work and let's just say the hormones are really kicking in. I made the mistake of saying that to her and she basically hung up on me.
so yea. I suck.
