metamorphosis

wow, i haven't updated in ages. things are crazy and i'm rarely online. we have now owned our house for 2 months and have been living in it for 1 month. things are going really well. there is a ton of work to do, but we are making good progress. our kitchen cabinets arrived today, and once we install them on sunday, we will be well on our way to having a complete home! i need to post some pictures, because we have the coolest kitchen in history, with a black & white checkered floor, bright red walls, white cabinets, and a vintage '60s chrome, white vinyl, and red sparkly vinyl dining set (thank god for hand-me-downs from great aunt eva!). i've also been working like crazy, but apparently it has paid off, 'cuz i got a promotion! it's nice to feel like my work doesn't go unnoticed, for once. i'm also riding (horses) a lot more. it's getting a bit crazy trying to juggle everything. i think i need to slow down; i was feeling on the verge of a breakdown today. my parents sold their farm, and it's really sad for me because even though we only moved there when i was 14, my high school and college years were spent there, and there are so so so many memories. i love that place, it's like heaven on earth. i had to fight back tears when i didn't win powerball tonight, how bad is that? i'm obsessed (again) with watching america's next top model, although it depresses me terribly. i need a long vacation, a makeover, a new wardrobe, and a few sessions with a hypnotherapist. my brain is just too overloaded. speaking of makeover, i'm itching to go a bit wild with my hair again, but i can't decide what to do. hopefully i'll get my tattoo finished before the end of the year... it's been too long delayed. well, i have a ton of work to do. the curse of having a work-issued laptop... you can never escape...

yours truly and neurotically,
