Post something good that happened today

Litski's opium seeds came in the post today

What do you do with them? Eat them?

[Blasted]

Plant them to get opium poppies.  Then when they flower, make poppy tea or smoke it.

and then

Finally bought myself cigarettes, a 20 pack as well so that I won't have to worry about running out too quick.  A few puffs and immediately the day seemed somehow better

Was on Limewire, looking for acoustic versions of songs. Found a great acoustic version of Joey by Concrete Blonde.

this morning I was laying in bed, attempting to sleep, and my neighbours let their dog out rather early (5:30am) and all I could hear was "Do you have to pee? C'mon, go pee!" So I yelled from my bed, "No thanks. I went already. I'm fine." I sleep with my window open. Then I heard my neighbour call into her husband, did you hear what CG just yelled at us and they both busted out laughing.

That's fucking hilarious

My neighbours rock. They're the main reason I don't want to to move. I keep flipping back and forth over whether to keep this house (it's in my name) and reno it so that I'm here for good and the ex can go and get his own place. Or to reno it, sell, make a profit and the kids and I move into a smaller house, preferably a bungalow. Either way, I'll definitely make money given what I paid for it and what it's worth now.

The biggest issue is that I would need to make it more disabled friendly for my Mum when she comes to visit because she can't handle all the stairs (there's 3 flights).

okay, I totally went off on a tangent.  This has been taking up a lot of my brain space lately.

I think you should stay in the house you have now and just renovate it.  Good neighbours are a rarity nowadays

[Celticgoddess]

True. But I don't really love the house. It's too big for me (the ex loved big houses) but I love the location and the neighbours. Hmmm...if the mortgage is paid off the next 2 years then that will decide it for me and I'll definitely stay.

I have to discuss it with the ex. I guess it depends on how much money it would cost for me to renovate it to my liking.

No more Media Studies for me.  Ever.

[Celticgoddess]

How did it all go today, B?

[Blasted]

[Celticgoddess]

Well that's a huge step in the right direction. Now brace yourself because the mother in me is coming out. You've got to apply yourself, B. You don't have media studies (which you hated anyway) and you've been given yet another chance. The teachers that you love are sticking up for you so need to prove to them, and to yourself, that sticking their neck out for you was a good idea. I know you have it in you. It's just a matter of staying dedicated.

Okay, Mum bit is done now. Carry on.
