so. irene.
i am writing this from jason's house - where i might be staying until i get power (see dominion power's twitter tomorrow but it might be up to a week for restoration to my side of town).
awkward.
last night it was me and the kids doing the storm - riding it out - the trees were landing on the wires and only with one bad band of the storm to go (so says people that had power) we lost power and now i'm in the weeds. trees, leaves, branches, trees - everything in the yard. my mom knows with it just being me it'll be a big job - so she said get someone to do it (i take that as i'll help you pay for someone to do it!) - but i have been wrong. either way at least i'm not expected to clean up all that shit up myself.
you know that saying when you got it bad - there's always someone who has it worse. well - my neighbor not even thirty feet away has a hugh fucking tree in her playroom. now - the storms done and you have to deal with regular yard cleanup - but now insurance companies, people to take away the tree, replace the fence, rebuild the room and she's pregnant - thank you jesus for sparing me that kinda aftermath.
i've been watching true blood via jase's hbogo account - but tonight it looks like i might be able to watch it on a real life tv and see it bigger than seventeen inches. how did nine episodes pass so soon? with only three episodes left i don't think there's much left to look forward to until christmas or maybe even next season.
so far today i've had breakfast and lunch with jase and the crew - i've read the daily readings with vinnie (and even kinda taught him the sign of the cross), read the regular sunday blogs, took a shower in my old shower (yes!) and re-watched last weeks episode of true blood in prep for tonights live run.
i've been anxious to spend some more of my dad's money and since jdg wants the blue bullet - i'm looking at an acadia on tuesday. the tattoo might be something i was putting off because all of the dreams i have of my dad include him wanting his money back - (my mom is high on in his list in my dreams - she really can't spend a dime) (he's totally pissed at my bro for spending all my dad's money) but me - i spent a little and i can't give it all back.
i bought a necklace off etsy - got a pair of keens for the winter - and i got a battery for my watch outta that account. the rest of the money isn't going to my retirement (see: my mom has that).
