would someone do my dishes for me?

I have no more silverware. Nor cups, nor bowls.

Arhhehrhrr. Goodnight!

Epipremnum Pinnatum

I learned something today

My pathos plant started to have small water droplets on the end of it's leaves and I wondered what it was. Turns out it's called guttation - when there is a buildup of water pressure in the roots, some plants release the pressure by secreting water through their leaves.

This started happening when I moved the plant to a higher shelf in my apartment.

I also learned that this house plant - that my cats have also been chewing on - is labeled as toxic, by the ASPCA.

Poor weeping Pathos plant.

Poor kitties.

(don't worry, both are doing just fine)

:)

lips...

SPRING

is tomorrow. I want it to enter with a bang. I want it to bring sunshine and warmth, and flowers growing out of the gutters.

exciting!@



A week ago I went into a shnazy home-decor place and asked if they had extra rug samples, thinking that if I had enough of them, I could make my own rug for cheep. They didn't at the time, but I left my contact information, and this morning I got a call saying they had a LOT. Here they are in my apartment, and Jazzy is so jazzed she licking herself... i mean....lol.

I don't know exactly how this is will all fit together yet, but it's still pretty cool.

kinda sad...

midnigt haikus

Three untitled haiku tonight:

Talking to strangers
It's too intimating
iPod keeps me safe

-Patrick McFadden

On a rainy night
a bus full of wet hobos
smells like wet hobos

-Mike Baehr

A nickname for those
Who only bus when it snows?
How about assholes?

I got a job! weeee....?

So the bakery I applied at (which is very much like sugar, on 26th and Madison) emailed me back offering me a 20+ hour a week job. I'm not quite sure what I should do. If I accept it, then that would mean I would most likely work this week when my brother's in town, as well as the week I'm to go sailing with Danny and crew. If I turn it down and go the unemployment rout (which technically I can't do), this means me finding something to do for two months until I leave for Alaska the second week of May - and I am not gifted with this skill like some people I know. Even if I did take the job, I would have to quit before then - in May.

What a pickle.

I'll be fine money wise, unemployment benefits or not, but can I fight the stir-craziness and actually develop satisfying, time consuming hobbies?

I'll decide by tomorrow.

salsa!

satisfactory salsa

Last night was not as fun as I hoped it would be. I had my Friday night salsa dance, but instead of it being at the Halo like usual, the first Friday of every month it's hosted at Century Ballroom in the main room. It was packed, and cost $10 instead of the normal $7. I also had a harder time finding people to dance with. I'm still not that good (I'm about intermediary), and most people came with someone, so I ended up dancing with gross old men. Fun. No matter who I dance with, it's still practice, but I don't like feeling uncomfortable doing it, and I don't want to have to stop dancing in the middle of a song (which is really rude) because the 70 year old is trying to grind with me.

Also, in the mail yesterday, I received four letters from the Unemployment office of things I need to do. I'm not excited.

This is grumpy Aimee signing off, and headed for a big bowl of cereal.
