yes, yes my friends...I'm blogging on here now, instead of myspace. The End.
As for the update: Oh, the hilarity of 2 cats, 1 fiance, and 1 slp/cat mom. In a 1 bedroom apartment in urbania. I say urbania b/c we are not in the suburbs, but on the outskirts of the city. VERY, TRULY< completely, urban...but not in the middle of downtown Philly.
Wedding plans are not finalized or even on paper yet, but we have quite a few general ideas. I'm calling the priest today, and hoping to get all that squared away ASAP. YIPPPEEEE.
And, on to the next thing: My ventures as a HIPPY. Yes, this is nothing new but time + an 'almost husband' + concern/care for my world = Hippy.
I'm in a flexitarian/semi-vegetarian phase, as far as food goes. Almost NO red meat/chicken and if I do, it's only once or twice a week. YUMMY, and so inspired by my sweet friend ALICE.
The main 2 changes for the month of April are 1) cloth bags and 2) BUY NOTHING CHALLENGE. (See the previous entry.) Yes, i'm turning into a plastic bag refuser. This is EASY as pie at CVS, WAWA, when i have a small purchase. Even target isn't too difficult, although I usually fill up 1 big canvas bag and then go plastic for 2-3 bags. I found this impossible though at ACME (think kroger in texas). I asked for paper only one day, and I got paper bags set into plastic bags and ended up wasting TWICE as much. These lower end, super speedy operations REALLY don't handle well canvas bags. SO, I'm still picking and choosing my battles.
I have to say though, Using my big red bag is WAY easier to carry upstairs by the time I park, walk into the lobby, go up the elevator, and eventually to my 11th floor apartment. THe cashier at Target pointed out "OH, it's less bags...that would be easier to carry." Funny the comments/looks ppl don't or do make.
Oh, and my book pic for the month I am just starting: Affluenza
Watch out guys...I may end up moving to Illinois and working on a farm.(Just kidding, although Kevin's fam. does own farm there!!!!!!!!!)
