A New Hobby, Some Dirt, an FYI and some Words of Wisdom

So according to a few people I need to update this thing and, in light of recent events, I believe it is definitely time.

Work has been intense. I will post some pictures soon of my injuries that I acquire at the workplace...I was bitten 2 weeks ago on my left ankle. I still have a black bruise the size of a silver dollar there. Sunday I was bitten on the right forearm. I have teeth marks and a bruise there now, too. SUPER. I can't wait till I get punched in the face and get a black eye then go to town and have people think I'm Domestic Violence victim. THAT'S going to be fun times LOL!

I am in the process of learning how to sew on a sewing machine. I'm making curtains for my windows and have sewed my first seam yesterday! I can see that this may be a new hobby for me. I love seeing fabric and thinking of all the things I can make with it. I am looking forward to being able to make lots of Christmas presents for everyone, though they may only be pillows or a throw blanket, they will be created with my own hands and so whomever receives them HAS to love them! I will post pictures and updates on projects that I am working on. I think it will be good for me to pick up another hobby besides reading, writing and drawing.

SO. Onto bigger and better dirt on my life...I have previously mentioned that I think I am seeing someone. Let me just say that, yes, we are "dating". He picks me up from my house for dates (actual DATES!) Our personalities are the same and I have taught him all about "Your Team" which he thoroughly enjoys and takes part in, as often as possible. He gives me cards for no reason. He drove all the way from his house today, while I was at work, to leave me a gift on my doorstep so I would get it when I got home. He's thoughtful and respectful and for those of you who are already asking the burning question...............HE'S OLDER THAN ME. Holy shit. I know. I am not sure what else to say about it even though there's a million things I could. I'm happy and I guess I'll leave the subject at that for now. If you want to know more then just ask.

FYI: In response to my previous post and the reference to revenge....J I didn't need the gift you gave me after all, but I did get sweet revenge nonetheless....call me or I can send you details of the story in an email if you want...it's pretty funny and my plan couldn't have worked any better if I had actually scripted it!

To D The Great (here on out referred to as DTG) I am sorry I haven't written about global warming, or the holocaust, but I'm thinking of coming down in Octoberish....not sure yet, though. I will definitely give heads up when I figure it out. I miss all of you terribly, more than any words could describe.

I guess this is where I say goodnight. Before I go, though, let me leave you with some words of wisdom: If you're having a bad day and need to laugh just picture me with an 8 year old latched onto my fucking ankle by his teeth and see if you can figure out what exactly is running through MY head at that second!

Until then,
s.

I figured out what's missing in my life! It's a dose of Shan-o. I totally hear ya on the sewing thing. I snagged my mom's old Bernina - formerly an SOU costume shop denizen - and it's set up in my room right now. :)

It's a good thing you're in charge of the children. I would bite them right back, or yell "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" at them all the live long day.

Older men are fun, although I've noticed that we have completely different childhood Saturday morning cartoons. And I don't know the words to any 80s song he sings, because despite being born in the early-mid 80s, I didn't start listening to regular radio until I was in 6th grade.

Is he 40? 50?

I ran across your blog on a blog roll and read this...
"I will post some pictures soon of my injuries that I acquire at the workplace...I was bitten 2 weeks ago on my left ankle. I still have a black bruise the size of a silver dollar there.

are you a teacher by chance... that exactly explains my years of teaching elementary school!
