pardon the photo dump, it's early in the morning on what is probably going to be a long day. i have to get my winter tires put on the car, finish packing the car (just need to pack socks, bathroom stuff, all the prezzies for pg'ers, a new knitting project, and my shoes), make all of the food for our road trip tomorrow (banana peanut butter chip muffins and breakfast sandwiches), and find all of my zine stuff to get it ready to copy into the zines (preorder here!).

these past few days helvetica has been more cranky than normal and hasn't been sleeping well and i'm not liking it at all. bleck. babies are such a challenge physically and emotionally, and they're awesome and all, but i'm not sure why there's so much social pressure to experience hell for such an elongated period of time. hahaah. we're both still sick, too, so i'm sure that's not helping either of us.

i think i'm going to knit these socks next. okay should go...whiny baby, yoga needed, and oatmeal with blackberries is being craved. !! xo

the basic principle of healing is letting go of the things that hurt us and surrounding ourselves with the things that nurture us.

random fan
this is a general call for help and guidance and general advice. one of the "friends" from that previous night of avoidance called here, knowing we were out, and left a message requesting that i call and clear up the negative energy between us as i have not been acknowledging this person when i see them for the last little while. so, i decided that i do not want this person in my life, they bring me down, are negative, and needy to a fault (and when you don't give them the attention you want, ie. saying hi in public to acknowledge their existence, they call you on it immediately and you end up looking like the bad guy, if there were a bad guy). and i'm tired of having negativity around me. i have not known this person long and hardly think that we're close, but they obviously think differently because of the message. i do not want to call this person back, i don't want to acknowledge them, and i don't like conflict. i don't feel like it's my responsibility for me to explain myself or defend my actions. i don't think i'd feel comfortable telling them the above reasons why i feel like i don't want to be their friend. in fact, the main reason i don't want to be their friend is because i don't want to. isn't that enough? so, advice would be nice.
today was nice out and i took a bunch of pictures and want to share. xoxo.
