→ So, my sister is now up from Florida. She was supposed to be here in July, they kept changing plans, then finally settled on one - but everyone forgot to tell me, so I only found out it had changed on the day before she arrived. This is the end of Zane's work week, so I haven't seen her yet, but I guess I'll being doing that this weekend/next week. My house is a mess, so it'll likely all be at my parents house until I clean. I've missed my sister, but I'm just not prepared at all for this visit. >.<

→ I wanted my hair cut before my anniversary and no later than my birthday, it needs definitely length chopped and I want long layers again so it doesn't lay so damned flat. As my anniversary is tomorrow (Saturday), Father's Day is Sunday and my birthday is on Monday, I doubt this will be occurring. WAH. Maybe I'll just get it cut ON my birthday and totally tempt fate.

→ I'll be out of town Friday the 20th through Sunday the 22nd while we visit my mom's family in New York (upstate, not NYC). This was planned all along. I haven't seen Nonie in way too many years because she couldn't make trips anymore, and Zoey's never met her great-grandmother, so we're rectifying that now. And my sister better come, considering she'll be up here still, or there will likely be a sisterly throwdown. The only internet I will have will be via mobile, so while I will not be COMPLETELY desperate, my damn phone freezes or misbehaves too much to make this entirely reliable and relaxing. When I'm back, the damn thing is going to get fixed (likely, as in-store techs 'assure' me it's not the phone model, just my phone, and thus I need to call the tech hotline instead) or replaced because I am heartily sick of it. Zane has his and it does work, so there will be ways to reach me. I'll post closer to then about that.

→ I am growing cucumbers in a plantbox on my porch. This is the first vegetable I have ever grown, so this should be interesting. Apparently I'm doing something right, as I've only had it a week and the thing is already latching on to the porch post and anything else it can get its vines or little green tendrils around in the process. Apparently the other plants my mother-in-law started are all not doing so well, but to be fair, I'll I'm doing is watering it and even then the rain was taking care of that for a time. I think I'll keep taking a picture a week or something, I did today because the teeny tendrils are gripping the excess line from the dog's run line like little fingers and it was amusing to me.

→ Creatively, Parabolical is eating up much of my brain and I have absolutely NO REGRETS. I love private RP, but it is wonderful to be in such a good public game with so much opportunity to really develop characters. It's actually what my newest icon *points* references - well, a part of the whole experience, but still. There is not enough ♥♥♥♥ in the world for this place.

→ I am likely going to have a brand new house by the end of next summer. I will talk more about that once these plans are actually WE ARE DOING THIS OMG, rather than just likely. Therefore, no squee yet.

→ And my thoughts are with those already under attack today. I'm going to wish I'd been as prepared all along as the_wanlorn has been, I know it.

ETA: I have now been attacked by a zombiefied dana_shulps@LJ, via the interwebs. OM NOM NOM, F-LIST. OM NOM NOM.
