get ready for laura-belle's random, spur of the moment update. hold on to your knickers.

i'm currently prancing about my now empty house wearing a sarong and a smile. i'm being awfully lazy on my day off this week despite the fact that i have quite a bit to do today.

item the first: fold my laundry and clean my disaster area of a room.
item the second: wash my icky, gross, stringy hair so i look nice for work tomorrow.
item the third:purchase some sushi making items for my big potluck at work tomorrow. it's my "graduation party"!!! then on thursday they shove us on the phones. please cross your fingers/sacrifice a goat for me.
item the fourth: i have much yardwork to do. ie: mow the lawn, weed and then fertilize the garden, weed the area beside my garage so it doesn't turn into a raging, itchy jungle of thistle. ok, that's not so much now that i see it in writing.
item the fifth: walk my poodle and generally pay attention to her. this really isn't a chore, i love my dumb little curlyface, but it's definitely something that has to be done. even poodles need love.

at the moment, i'm watching flavour of love and folding my sheets. women are fucking awful. i don't understand how you men put up with us. honestly.

just popped in office space. ahhhh. so much better. having only basic cable has made me hate tv once again. except for house, the office, my name is earl and the simpsons, i do not watch anymore. if things continue on this trend, this summer could become my most creative and productive since i was a wee little sprout living in alberta.

i would probably cut off a finger or some equally important body part for a cigarette right now. but seeing as i be po' like edgar allen, i can't purchase any flamimg cancer sticks til i get real paid on friday. until then, i'll just stuff my face and drink coffee. so much coffee. hazelnut cream is my new boyfriend for the time being.

i'm having a bit of a salad binge. my favourite being a spicy, crispy tofu salad with mint and avocado. good lord. i found this recipe in the newspaper of all places, and now it's made it on my favourites list. so yummy and filling.

i refuse to turn on my air conditioning. if there's one thing i hate, it's having to wear a sweater in the summer. it's a matter of principle. cuz once i crank on the a/c, my upstairs becomes nice and tolerable, but my basement turns basically into a meat locker. most of the time, i sleep with more blankets during the summer than i do in the winter due to my daddy's love of re-circulated air.

i'm eating melty milk duds right now. gross huh? those things make my jaw hurt....in a most delicious way.

i think i have my next tattoo planned out. i want an old skool style gypsy girl to represent my romanian heritage. who knows? my parents may even like this one. probably not, seeing as i'm planning on getting it in a slightly more visible area. maybe saturday i'll make my appointment.

i may have the opportunity to spend the weekend at the boy's farm with his mum and dad. i'm super nervous. i mean, i've met some of his family (huge clan by the way. 6 sisters, two brothers) and his parents. hell, i've even talked to his mum on the phone, but i'm just afraid that his family won't think i'm good enough for him. *blows sad pity party noise maker*

despite the fact that i am deeply in smit with said boy, i keep having odd, sexy dreams about one of his friends. i'm not even physically attracted to him, which makes it even more bizarre. i shouldn't feel guilty, but i do.

the past year has been interesting to say the least. i've turned from a shy, self-conscious wallflower to a vain, loud mouthed camera whore. well, not really. but my narcisisstic side is deifinitely coming out. short skirts and near embarassingly tight pants are becoming a wardrobe staple these days.

i really wish i could write a profound, thought provoking journal entry. oh well. maybe one day. one dark, stormy, sangria soaked day...
