i was browsin people near me and i unearthed your name.
11 Oct
FRIENDS.
Five random things:
1. Yesterday I was cleaning out my Skype contacts (because apparently I never updated my privacy settings and random people have tried to contact me). One of the personal messages was “i was browsin people near me and i unearthed your name.” Uh, unearthed? I mean… okay. Not the first verb I would have used.
2. Last night, a few friends came over to play the greatest game of all time (EUCHRE). Believe it or not, I did win my team 4 points in a loner. I never go alone. We still lost 2 out of 3 games. That’s beside the point. About an hour into their visit, I looked over and found a folded up piece of paper on the floor, almost under the couch. It didn’t belong to anyone there at the time, and as far as Stormy and I can tell, it couldn’t possibly belong to anyone else that has visited our apartment. Here’s the note:
roommate confusion. and suspicion.
uh huh.
It’s difficult to read, but it’s a to-do list of sorts. 1. Make CJ crush cans. Okayyy. Who’s CJ? And do you want him to physically crush cans (for recycling, perhaps), or make him an Orange Crush soda can to share your feelings for him? 2. Cucumber shots. PARTY! Sounds kinda disgusting. 3. Invite Julian’s girlfriend (Katie). To the party with the shots. Got it. 4. Kill CJ. DAMN. 5. Eat CJ’s dead body for brunch. DOUBLE DAMN. For brunch? Morning after the party? Is his dead body the perfect cucumber/vodka hangover cure? Beats me. So yeah. There’s that. Again, Stormy and I have absolutely no idea where this came from or who wrote it. If you, by some incredible chance, have a better understanding of this list, by all means LET US KNOW.
3. My aunt threw a bridal shower for her future daughter-in-law this weekend and my mom and I drove up to visit. This random point mainly exists so I won’t forget how funny I found my aunt’s comment about a panini maker: “Paninis. Really just a grilled cheese sandwich with stripes.”
4.I have a job interview with the Registrar’s Office at Miami at the end of the week! OH EM GEEEE. I’m not getting my hopes up, but at least it’s something, right? Keep your fingers crossed!
5. As I mentioned a few weeks ago, I’ve learned to knit. I can do the knit stitch. I can do the purl stitch. I really want to practice rib stitch (ribbing? rib stitching?), but I’m forcing myself to finish at least one project before I get started on that. My sister is coming home for fall break at the end of the week and I’m trying to finish a scarf for her. Don’t get excited. It’s nothing fancy. Literally as simple as it gets… but it’s a start! Seeeeee:
no dropped stitches!
halfway there.
Anyway. That’s all for now. Thanks for reading and happy craftingggg!
What’s the buzz?
