My semi-vacation is over. Despite the fact that I had to work through part of it, it was still a vacation since it got me the hell out of this house for a week...which was nice. My landlady's daughter got a divorce and is now living here with her three kids ranging in age from about 9 to 14, and it's like a friggin romper room.
However, I want to know what in the hell they did in my bathroom, because it smells like shit. Literally. I opened the door to throw a bottle of shampoo on the counter that I picked up on the way home because I remembered I was almost out, and I almost fell over. I doused it in air freshener and opened the window. I hope to hell that does the trick.
As noted Thursday [ah that lovely future post feature is lovely], it was me and Justin's anniversary. We went to see Transformers 2, [which was quite good] then went to dinner at Dakota Steakhouse in Avon. We both had lobster bisque and I had salmon, he had a lobster. [I was tempted to get lobster too, but I thought that was going a bit overboard with the lobster-ness. Oh well, that salmon was
DAMN good.] It was very nice.
AND I EVEN WORE A DRESS! However, I couldn't be arsed to buy a bottle of self-tanner, so my goal of not being pasty white wearing it failed miserably. Ah well...you can't win 'em all.
This was my present. Amethyst [because purple's my favorite color...and I should have been born three days later so it would be my birthstone, but alas, not.] and white gold [because apparently regular gold looked "tacky"...his words, not mine...good call on his part though, because I like silver jewelry better than gold anyway]. I really don't want to know how much he spent on them because then I'll feel cheap in comparison on his gifts, but one of them I busted my ass making, which was a set of cards saying 100 reasons why I love him.
Hey look, you can see my obnoxiously purple suitcase in the background =DAnyway, I missed Xanga, and I'm glad to be back.
This week was also a good learning experience...we both kept our slobbish tendencies down, meaning when we live together it won't be a total and complete disgusting mess. Damn, if I had the money for a deposit on an apartment I'd be plunking that down pronto.
On another note, my fourth of July is not shaping up to be
as fantastic as last years'. [Although after last year, the bar is set ridiculously high] Nobody wants to go to the fireworks since they're charging this year, and Justin is too stubborn to deviate from his Saturday plans of going to Karaoke, getting drunk and making an ass of himself.
One can only hope Andrew [who is BACK] can talk him into something more holiday-ish and conducive to me being there. God I can't wait until my birthday, then I can actually go to karaoke with him. I HATE BEING UNDER 21. Especially at this juncture. It's not even the drinking I'm looking forward to, it's the fact that I can finally see him make an ass of himself rather than hear tell about it...haha

I love purple too! That's a very nice gift... And oh, it's not "obnoxiously" purple... It's "perfectly" purple....
@Drizzles - At any rate it's very handy at the baggage claim...no need to tie a scarf on it to differentiate it from everyone else's.
for deodorizing your bathroom try baking soda. if you want a quicker effect try vinegar. pour a cup and leave it in the bathroom with the fan on & window open. when I just leave my window open it just takes waaaaay too long for the odor to get out and I could stand the vinegar (since i now use it to clean the house - vinegar (if you want 1 part vinegar & 1 part water for a lighter scent) + baking soda = work wonders! plus no toxic fumes like pine sol that makes me want to faint)
HTH! I need to get ready for J4! Byee :]
Your gift is quite nice too!
@nattata - He liked that one.
Probably more than The World of Warcraft book and Warlock shirt...and he's the one who conned me into playing WoW last year.
