Over coffee, while I should be getting ready for work

I tried to blog yesterday as I had an unusual window to do so- home from work waiting for maintenance to remedy my broken refrigerator situation.

And I did write.

But it all came out like "blah blah blah....I'm incredibly boring.....I like data....blah blah blah...sorry for being boring....blah blah blah....even more boring"

Eh, how disappointing. Apparently I was not in the right state of mind, and being a half hour from when I'm supposed to leave for work (suppossed too) odds are I won't do much better.

But hello :)

This weekend the refrigerator died, I learned I cannot spell refridgerator, my favorite person in the world was feeling like hell which always sucks, and I was too overwhelmed to even attempt to make the one plan I had tried to make in forever: lunch in the city with work friends.

It would have been lovely. But in the city.... That takes time, and I do not have that kind of time. So suck it, guess I'm boring.

But what I did get to do which was especially awesome was have an art buddy sort of to make cards with me. My husband shares many interests with me, but card-making and craftiness does nothing for him. But Abandoning Eden, who just so happens to be one of my *Real Life* friends, and not only online, or imaginary, or the guy I buy cigarettes from named Tika who's from Nepal and speaks 6 languages... but a Real Friend. The kind you can spit and drool around and talk some shit and they just laugh along with you. Good times.

We made some fun wedding cards we'd been planning for her and it was a good time. My wont is to get more and more detailed, to go off in umpteen time-consuming directions as I see better ways to do things in a most obsessive sort of perfectionist manner (sounds like my dissertation, with more glitter), so she was very helpful in keeping me on track and finally FINISHING these bad boys. Yay!

I took many pictures, but they are on something called F*I*L*M that has to be taken (physically!) to the CVS so they can turn it into pictures and also the digital files I hanker for. This won't be for days at best, but AE posted one card here. I'll post more when I've got em.

So that's the update from my off life here snuggled in a little room outside our nation's capital.

I now have a refrigerator that gets cold.
We finished the wedding cards and I got to scratch that off my list (that's always growing).
And didn't lose my mind too much.
Yay!

I swear I do think to blog throughout the day, when random colorful and so-dumn-I-have-to-share-them thoughts hit me, but at these times I am driving, at work, walking the dog, and generally in a hurry. It ain't easy Inter-Friends. But what I tell you is this. It is good. We will persevere. And not only I but you too are awesome my inter-friends. You are super rad. And I love you like little fuzzy easter bunnies.

So don't give up on me inter-friends. This blog lull cannot possibly last forever. And I totally heart you I swear!

Have a fuzzy warm day, or whatever else does it for you. :)
