Good Gracious

Tis amazing, there has been this whole whirlwind of upsets and questions among my girls in the past week or so - more defining what we are as a group and what we mean to each other, what to expect, what we need, etc. Miscommunications and hurt feelings abound. We always seem to have some sort of big upset when one of us has a big lifestyle change, but this seemed to be really bad. I think in general it's on the upswing, but man was it god-awful for a few days there.

I got an A/C window unit from Rosemary. She wants $50 for it, but says I can pay her in installments and stuff. phew. That'll make me feel better about having people over on hot days. Now I just have to work on the bed....

Oh, so guess what my latest brilliant idea was? Cathy didn't have any artist at Entree for the next quarter and was getting desparate, hoping she wouldn't have to put up her own stuff to fill the space. I came up with "What about all the artist who work at Entree put stuff up? Then you won't feel so egotistical." (that was her complaint) She thought it was great, and so now I have to get some of my photos matted or something... for the next artwalk. She was supposed to give me an image, but hasn't, so I guess I get to put one of mine in. Ha! Me in the ArtWalk. Go figure!
I wonder if I could actually sell anything? I dunno how on earth much to charge for it.... but it would be nice to turn something that has been sitting around into a little cash... hrm. I almost want to go out and take some new pix.... Tommy's digital is really good.

Meret found a renter and so is having a moving sale on stuff in her house. I got a bunch of kitchen stuff that will be really useful and she only charged me $2 for it all, bless her. G also talked with her about arequipe, and she's totally open to trying it out for the coffee or something... we may have to experiment with consistancy quite a bit more... I really think we need a thermometer, I think that will cut out a lot of the guess work.

I've watched that show Tru Calling the past couple weeks. It kinda creeps me out and fascinates me at the same time... Been watching a lot more TV in general, it's there, I don't have a computer, and it fills the space when I'm alone. Plus I don't have to think.

I'm really hoping that getting a new phone won't be too much of a hassle. I brought the one I have in to Radio Shack because the earpiece part is busted, and they told me that it's busted, and would have given me a loaner phone while fixing that one, but the contract is up for renewal, so I could get a new FREE phone (with rebate) and the other guy said I could do a "change of responsibility" for the # as long as the credit checks out or something. dang. I hope they aren't too anal about it or something. It would just be such less a hassle to keep the same #. and I think also I could upgrade to free minutes at 7pm, which would make SUCH a difference to me. my goodness. My mom also suggested checking out if piggybacking on my dad's plan was an option, although I'd rather just have it to deal with myself... sigh. We'll see. Something will turn out. And I bet the new phone will be cute! yay.
