(no subject)

Because it took me so long to restart my claim (I thought I needed some info that I didn't, I could have had this done last week, dammit) I have to call the unemployment office and to make a claim a week back--you can only claim the most recent week online.

AND I forgot about the waiting week. Fuckity.

In other news, making progress on the laundry backlog. My non-wool delicates load consists of biking technical gear (like padded shorts and a couple jerseys) and frilly dresses. That kinda sums up my life in a way.

LOL. That would make a good meme: post the contents of your laundry basket.

Good luck with the monies!

ohhh, that sucks. i hate all the paperwork involved in everything - it makes it so much more difficult to get motivated to do stuff!

If you can absolutely commit to it now - I'd give you $100 in advance to watch our cats and bring in our mail from Friday July 10 to Saturday July 18th. You'd only need to come in once a day, refill food and water, scoop the litter if it's bad and bring in the mail. But I would need you to be committed to doing that each day.

Let me know what you think. Also, let me know if you want to come to my work on Friday.

oooo! And also, Coral and I are going to karaoke at the Ambassador on Wednesday. If you wanna come, I'll spot you a drink and some of your song tip; I bet Coral'd be willing to spot you one too. (although I shouldn't commit other people, I guess.)

talk to you soon!

- Jen

I'm going to go ahead and take you up on the offer. And I still want to come with you on Friday!

I might be out of town with Shawn Wednesday night.

wool socks rock.

I just spent 35 minutes on hold and five minutes talking to a woman with an accent so thick, I kept asking her to repeat herself, and even then I'm not sure I understood her entirely.

I am way past the point of having enough hangers for my clothes. This is ridiculous.

[identity profile] smartasskicker.livejournal.com 2009-06-29 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
FUCK!!!! i meant to give away hangers yesterday! well, if you need any, especially skirt-hangers, LET ME KNOW.

[identity profile] aprilstarchild.livejournal.com 2009-06-29 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Even with more hangers, I just don't think there's enough room in my closet!!

I don't know what to get rid of. In addition, I don't know if I should attempt to sell the things I get rid of, take'em to goodwill, or just shove a free box outside.

I have emotional attachments to clothes, which does NOT help. Do I get rid of the hemp/rayon skirt I wore to umpteen Oregon Country Fairs? That I wore on hot days as a dress while in my tree-sitting era?! Never mind that it's faded, that it has an obvious repair in the back, that I never wear it....

Plus I've obtained some winter-y clothes lately, and how will I know whether I'll wear them come winter-time?

that's the thing i like about NLPs.... it's easier for me to get rid of some stuff if i see who's taking it. here's an idea: YOU SHOULD HAVE ONE!!!!!!! hehe!

Trust me, NOBODY'S gonna want that skirt.
