Working On Living

WOW OH WOW.
I think a lots been going on, mostly waiting and waiting to move but other than that a lots been going on, I SWEAR!

Lets get the scary news out of the way first.


not my gross mouse

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHCCHHOOOOOOOOOOO!
IM ALLERGIC TO TREES!



And cats and dogs and mites!



I had to get more cat juice pumped in under my first layer of skin cuz the results showed up neg (you can see where he later recorded my swollen upper arm a massive 20x20mm)



Here see for yourself.
Im a mutant disaster!


Its ok. I mean, I was given the option to take allergy shots once a week for like 5 years but I was like F THAT.
Instead, Ive been using a nasal spray which is both exciting and frightening at the same time. Ive been able to breathe a little better WHO KNEW!?
I took the allergy test because last week, trying to be healthy good girl, I ate a handful of raw veg then in 2 minutes, my throat felt like it a giant doughball was lodged in it. At first I wasnt too alarmed. I drank warm diet Sprite thinking the bubbles would eat away at this non-dough-ball but nothing.
I started to panic as this lump in my throat was trying to take over, maybe even to come out of my mouse and onto my lap.
I called and made an appointment and popped a zyrtec.
SALVATION.

So now I know. Im a freak.

Moving on, my job makes me want to do this:



In other news, my new pal Jess and I made tamales. It was a first for both of us as it can be quite an intimidating process.

I mean, look at all that shit!



Masa is so awesome! It smells so rich and field-like I wanted to dive in it.
We made quite a few different tamales. First, I must note that its a fucking bitch to find chihuahua cheese. Its the perfect cheese for melting. However since I couldnt find any god damn chihuahua cheese, I settled for mozzarella, as it melts similarly and far less salty. SCORE.
So we made
-hot chili peppers and cheese
-sweet potato and hot chili peppers
-soyrizo and/or cheese
-sweet potato and caramelized red onion
-zucchini and sometimes with soyrizo

Its a tedious process, with all the husks you have to soak and all the things you have to prep but in the end, theyre the perfect little presents your tums would kill for.





I cant wait to do it again! Next time, Ill buy my own electric steamer and invite my most fave pals.

WHAT THE SHIT?!
Seattle at 9 at night.



The other day, Travis was telling me how smart he was when he stopped short and saw something so strange.



IT WAS A DOG ACTING LIKE IT GOT HIT BY A BEAR!!!



later on, we stood in the street. Travis kept an eye out.



And finally, I move this weekend to my new new new new home. Well, its not new but it will be exactly what Ive been dreaming about.

ALSO, DEAR WORLD, COME TO OUR MOPED RALLY THIS JULY THANK YOU BYE NOW YOUR PAL JIHEE.

Travis races this weekend EGGGGGGGCITE! Are you eggcite? I yam. BYE NOW.

Magical Weekend

I slept over at Maggie's house.
She is very sweet and we both like to place our hand under the cool side of the pillow.



Everything is still alive as well.



We all had a magical time as we cheers a birthday*



danced in circles and clawed at fruit



and watched in awe while getting happily soaked in the rain.















This post is brought to you by Old Yeller, thee old beaut.




*NOTE: OVER YONDER, GIANT TROLL.

Crazy, Party of 2.

When I am revelling in my outrageously fun demented brain, I always remember that I am never alone.

Thanks Janny.



And no, it is not SKYMALL.

Mercury Is So Over Being In Retrograde And By Celebrating, Mercury Chilled Out And We Had A Fun Time

MAHALO!

Guess what? Im going to blogge about stuff!

Thursday was my boyfriend's birthday. It was his one and only golden birthday!
We did everything he wanted or else he would hit me.
But here's a secret! I would have anyway because I love the shit out of him.
38% OF THE TIME.





Travis wanted to have dinner IN the Space Needle (what a SAP!).
We had a few special guests join us.



The views up top were so wild! It was my first time in the Space Needoe so secretly I made it into my day.





Kurt brought a date. She didnt talk much or eat much. Honestly it was weird and awkward especially when she started humming. It just got louder and louder until he took her to the restroom.



Perhaps the highlight of the night was SCIENCE.

Dry ice is a magical and dangerous thing.



Dry ice chirps and tells you shocking secrets about the textile industry.



Later Travis gave the restaurant a scare by casually leaning against the inner rim of the Shpache Needer.



Then later on, Travis and Smudge dj'd cold dark minimal new wave night.



Afterwards, we met the gang at Shorty's for a lively r'tarded time.

It was a happy birthday. I am still left unbruised. JOY


Aaaaaaaaaaaand then I left Apt #206 for good.



And then I became a farmer.



One


Two


Three


Always a hoot with a good teacher.



And in just a few weeks, Skipper has grown into a most frightening beast.



And sometimes these two are never too shy.



And in other news.

Brutally Beyond Belief and Nuisances

OH MY GAAAAAAAAD.



Remember that one time I was like I CANT WAIT TIL I MOVE IN 1O MONTHS.
Well that time is now and of course nothing is going as planned.
Im mildly happy about it though, because I would rather live under my desk at work than live with strangers who could potentially ruin all good things known to man.
Basically, my first experiences in SHEEEEEEEEEEEATURR were terrible due to all the bullshit people I lived with. Except MELINDA of course. But no more ex-meth addicts who are obsessed with their ex-girlfriend, no more transgendered oppressed anarchist lesbians, no more cocaine partiers, no more mean cats.

So its a good thing these 2 assholes flaked on me and Kurt.
We can finally live in retardom together before he leaves us forever, for Yarpan to be with the love of his life, Miwakorn.

But we cant move yet because the landlord of our future home is stuck in Hungary (POOR BABY), due to the volcano (THANKS VOLCANO).
So Im going to stay with my boyfriend for a few weeks.
I know I know THE HORROR!!!
But we think it will work out, temporarily.
Ill keep you posted as best I can of the experience but for now, Im excited and scared.
Like sleepaway camp, I will be very exhausted for the next few weeks so dont get mad if I dont remind you how pretty you.

ANYHEWDLES

So Ive been packing OR I got robbed.



What else has been happening in the world.

McMinnville White Weiner fest happened on Sunday.



This time there were more than 2 mopeds.
This time there were 7.



It was basically The Mosquito Fleet vs The Puddle Cutters and boy was it a hoot to see Wayne and Emily. I only wish I had more time in Portland as I NEVER get to which is pathetic, really, since its only 3 hours away.

ANYWAY.

Travis came in 1st in pretty much all the moped races, which wasnt really all that surprising.
Its funny because nearly a year ago he refused to race he'd stand there arms crossed and tell me NO like I was some dumb kid trying to convince him that I was mildly psychic, which I AM.
He's a graceful rider. Honestly. You can see the confidence and trust he has in his machine. And he looks more natural riding Big Red than Betty White (SORRY HON ITS TRUE).
But he put the fear in me when he raced this one kid from Portland.
A kid who some people claimed had a bitchin fast bike.
WELL, as the founder of "Bitchin' and/or Facts" I cannot agree.
His moped not only sounded a bit on the janky side, he just didnt look natural riding. He was riding a moped and that was it. I dont think Im being biased by saying so. Its just THE FACTS.
Prettiest bike had to go to Uphill Battle Joe #420 (teal mags and red frame AW CUTE).



As a fellow Vespa admirer, I was intrigued and curious.
The more I thought of racing, the more I wanted to make Chip into my race bike.
Im comfortable with not only the frame but in general, comfortable riding the shit out of it.
But Travis and Phil have been trying to convince me that the Hobbit is the smarter, better version of the Vespa.

Lets stop talking about that.
And talk about how some people were born to wear leathers.





And some people were born to point out their muscles.



And some people were born to wear seafoam green.



Macro races are always fun.



And bunnies are always interesting because you NEVER know what theyre thinking about.



Also, dirt bikes are forever kickass.



Oh yeah and some people just want to play the shit out of D+D because its fucking cool.



Im ready for summer.



Bye now.
Lets meet back here soon.
