SBQ

This week's SBQ is:

the pattern or do you stitch directly from your computer screen?
-I don't usually download patterns but the one that I have done, I printed it out since I usually don't stitch in front of the computer

It's been a while

I hadn't realized that it's been 10 days since I last posted. Only a few things have happened. Joey and I moved in together this past weekend. My legs are finally almost feeling normal thanks to the stairs combined with heavy boxes of books. The cats are adjusting. Running around like crazy and being overly affectionate. Now it's just a matter of finding a spot to put all my boxes until we get bookcases to set up all of the books and misc. other things. Also, a couch or loveseat would be important instead of sitting on the floor. Joey and I are doing great in case you were wondering.
Work has been stressful-a lot of things seem to be falling apart and I'm having to attempt to pick them up. Write-ups and firings. The joys of being a supervisor. I'm just trying to focus on my little vacation that I'll be taking in May. Probably won't be going anywhere but relaxing is always a good thing.
Been reading a little more thanks to having no cable or internet yet in the apartment. I need to find my crafting stuff and attempt to set that up. I need to finish some projects like yesterday.
That's about it in my little Ollie World.

Today

Well, I had the pleasure of filing papers for 4 hours at my job. Please note sarcasm. Talk about frustration on horrible looking charts. How the agency has managed to stay for so long...I'll never quite understand. Lots of cursing going on this morning but at least only one other person heard me...and she was going off too. Hopefully now the charts will stay relatively how they're supposed to be. We shall see.

A Day Late (Friday's Feast)

This week's Friday's Feast:

Appetizer

If you could be any current celebrity for one whole week, who would you want to be?
-Steffi Graf, just so I could be married to Andre Agassi

Soup

On a scale of 1-10 (with 10 being highest), how much do you enjoy talking on the phone?
2

Salad

Name a charitable organization to which you have donated (or would like to).
-Camp Good Days and Special Times

Main Course

What is a food you like so much you could eat it every single day for a month?
-bagels

Dessert

Have you or anyone in your family had the flu this year?
-not that I know of

Guess I have to say it again

I guess I should do one of these type of blogs once or twice a year. This blog is for me. This blog and the others that I have is about my life. Some may not like it. Some may take offense to it. But this is mine. You don't like something that I wrote, sorry, but that's your problem. Don't read it. I've only had to be censored once and that was due to a work related thing that I had gotten very specific about. I am not going to censor myself to make someone feel better. It's called the Freedom of Speech. Maybe when I move out of the USA, I won't have this Right and will have to be censored. But if you do take offense, maybe you need to look at yourself and figure out why something I wrote pissed you off. My objective in writing on this blog is not to piss off or hurt others but to have a record of what happens in my life. Now if you're reading this and getting upset, this is not all about you. Nothing on my blog is or ever will be.

SBQ

This week's SBQ is recycled from January 4, 2005 and is:

After you stitch a pattern or kit, what do you do with it?
-I've thrown out the guides or have given them to others. I usually keep the floss in case I can use it on another project.

A little update

It's been a while since I posted anything about me and my life. Things with Joey continue to go very well. Well enough that we are looking for a place to live together. His roommate's lease ends at the end of this month and I need to find a place for me and my cats. So....why the heck not? I didn't have a bad experience when I did it with Scott and Joey and I are pretty much living together now anyway so...
Work is so crazy. Had to attempt to write someone up this past week and when I attempted, she quit. Just got to love being a supervisor. It sucks because she is a good worker, it's just that her emotions get in the way sometimes.
Still haven't finished a book since January. I really need to up my reading time.
I've done a little writing-mostly bare bones to an autobiography with a fictional character. I've been debating on applying to get my MFA in Creative Writing.
I've been doing a little craft work here and there. No finishes yet other than the friendship bracelets. I'm still thinking of setting up a mail order business for them. Probably as soon as I get settled, I'll be concentrating on it more.
Hope that you all out there in Blogville are doing well.
