mulled wine?

mulled wine? , originally uploaded by gimchi.

yes, please!

(that's my titslist cup! thanks, honey!)

it totally blows since i can't easily browse her website at work, at little NSFW, if you know what i mean. *sigh* and then i get home, do homework, clean, cook and then it's light's out! lame. soon i shall replace "clean" with "craft" - clean is high on the agenda since we just moved. the kitchen is getting there, but my sweatshop is still a hellhole. at least i have one wall painted.

like that ikea wall-hanging? i love it. thankfully the cats have left it alone these past 2 days. it took way too long and a minor kim freak-out to hang this baby. ok, i lie. it took a major kim freak-out. i'm almost proud of it; it was like this definitive moment. i oft bottle up my feelings of frustration and anger, but in this case, it was like i couldn't even control myself. i was shrieking at the top of my lungs, ear-popping levels and i had collapse on the couch before i could regain control. honestly, it was probably pretty scary, but we had a damn good laugh about it later. has this ever happened to you? i had no control over my voice box. seriously. *snap*

anyways, this is me, at 11:30 at night. i'm drinking some delicious mulled wine and hiding my chin pimples. not only tipsy, but classy!! that's me. :) *sly wink*

good LORD my arm looks big, doesn't it? wanna kiss my guns? they're huge. and fully automatic.

speaking of fully automatic, laura and i are planning a jaunt to the local gun range. mondays are ladies night. c'mon, you KNOW you want to come. the closest i've come to a gun is a cap gun. wait, maybe a bb gun. and definitely a water gun.

ok, bedtime. i'm supposed to get up tomorrow at 6. HAHAHAHA. yea, right.

the storms of (a very early) summer

what is UP with these insane florida storms? it's only april and it already feels like the heart of summer.

last tuesday, i was positively waterlogged on the way in to class. and sunday it poured all day.

today is lovely and foggy, perfect for coffee at home, movies and creating and drawing and soft charcoal. and spending time with lazy cats. not so perfect for going to work and drinking crappy coffee with oil-based creamer that thickly coats the tongue.

right now i have just this insane amount of photographs to get in order and post online. it's really pathetic how bad i am at this whole internet/technology thing, sometimes. i get so overwhelmed.

part of the reason is that we don't have internet yet at the new apartment and only anthony's computer can freeload off a neighbor's loose and slutty connection.

and, to crow about my birthday gift, anthony got me a calibration tool for my monitor! very exciting to have calibrated colors on my monitor for my photographs.

of chocolate cakes

weekend spent:
1. bowling (rain cancelled the shuffleboard)
2. moving
3. eating out with my mom and dad (who visited from ft myers!!!)


lying on the floor of my room with anthony after an arduous day of moving and a blissful bath (and note, we are still very not done):

“i really wish we were done moving. just wave my magic wand. *ting* and everything would be magically moved. and in the middle of this empty room, a chocolate cake.”
“ha, you wish.”
“and to every magical action, there is an equal-in-size chocolate cake created.”
“it’s the little debbie law.”

spammy!
