happy birthday bouters!




last week, i had an awesome time at lb's karaoke birthday bash! drinks at laser's apartment then off to the asian-fusion-saigon-whatever-it's-called karaoke bar down the street. the place was packed on a tuesday night, like a downtown club. good times!

well it's been over three weeks since my last post, i think the longest break i've taken since i started this thing three and a half years ago.

they haven't been the best three weeks. i made some mistakes dealing with a situation that i regret and pushed someone far away. what's happened over the last few days hardly seems real, though i don't, in any way, think it's irreconcilable. someone i really care about needs her time and space, and i guess i do too, and i'm doing my best to give it to her, though i miss her a lot. but in my attempt to move forward, i hurt her even more and if you're reading this i'm sorry, it was not my intention and i hope you will try to remember the good, more than the bad. because the good was much more than the bad. i know, as you know, that this is not how it should be and this definitely isn't how either of us want it to be.

facebook has been sucking my life away. i spend more time on there than i do doing anything else. this includes sleeping, as a recent bout of insomnia has plagued me for at least a week. i go to bed too late, i wake up way too early...i'm tired constantly and my head is weighted with thoughts.

i quit one of my jobs. mostly because of the situation mentioned earlier and have gone back to an old job. if you know me well, you'll know exactly where i am talking about. oddly enough, i left a year ago, frustrated and bitter, and am now happier than i've ever been at work. all my friends are there, the work seems easy, i know the menu by heart, inside and out. it works well for me now and i'm looking forward to the summer. the summer like it used to be.


tomato sprouts and snap-pea sprouts growing inside!


snap-pea sprouts planted outside...
i've always wanted to have a little garden, and bought some seeds a few weeks ago. i started them in a small greenhouse inside...tomatoes and snap peas. the peas sprouted immediately and grew like crazy, so i transplanted them outside into a bigger pot a few days ago. they are doing well. the tomatoes took their time but are now growing, though slowly. i hope i have some tomatoes this summer!
