In which I’m so lazy I have nothing to blog about.

Today I managed to bathe, look for work online (I applied at three ISPs!), and make black bean soup. Which is way more activity than I engaged in yesterday.

My mom’s house is so comfy and mellow that it’s hard to get up the gumption to do anything at all, really. She lets me sleep in late, eat whatever I want (including the cheesy poofs and the dark chocolate M&Ms!), and has long conversations with me about quilting and knitting. Last night she and and stepDoug re-watched Pan’s Labyrinth on the big TV so that I could see it. I can drink all the pop I want, I have a whole bathroom to myself, and my dog is utterly spoiled and they give her scraps off the table during meals.

I have my own room in the basement. I’m sleeping on a water bed, which is heated and comfy, and I have access to my own television in case I suddenly need to watch any of the hundreds of movies they’ve collected.

If all that weren’t enough, I’ve been offered my pick of several quilts and will be treated to dinner out on the town tomorrow night.

So, yeah, it’s freakin’ rad here. The only flaw is the being-in-Wyoming-which-is-thousands-of-miles-from-Washington part. And the moving away from all my friends part. And the not having a job, home, money, or relationship of my own even though I’m too old for this kind of vagrancy parts.

In other news, tomorrow is my birthday. I love birthdays!

    Enjoy the rest now; you’ll need to be rejuvenated and strong when you get to Washington. Building a whole new life takes a lot out of a gal.

    Happy birthday. May this year be the best yet.

    Happy b-day, Mushlette!! I’m going to celebrate your birthday by taking the day off from the bar and go out to an all day/night party in the country… it’ll be kinda like the first time I met you. Enjoy your day to the utmost! Hugs to you and the Blue Dog from me and Das Poog.

    Happy birthday!!

    What did you think of Pan’s Labyrinth? It looked so cool in the video store, but everyone I know who’s seen it (2 people) said it was totally disappointing.

    I loved it, actually. -m
