| Writer's Block: Wear This, Not That |

What is the most timeless article of clothing or fashion accessory?
I would say that the most timeless and revolutionary garment is the modern day bra. It really changed fashion.
I do love a great dress and skirt in a slightly addictive way. ^_^ |

My twitter or tumblr got hacked.
Really what a pain in the ass, there are so many assholes out there with nothing better to do.
Just like the politicians, politics are pissing me off with all this anti women's health legislature. Plus all the union busting and teacher bashing get wearing
I need to get more motivated about work, life and play. I have all these things I want to do but I can get motivated to actually do it. Very frustrating and stupid.
Kris and I are looking at houses and wedding planning is getting crazy go time. We need to send out invites soon. The shower is next saturday *_* I will finally get to see my Texan yay!
I have some very awesome fashion designs that I want to make. ^^ Plus my sister bought me the coolest fabric from Guatemala.
I was cleaning out my art stash and noticed that I like to draw bitchy, sad, aloof women . . . no wonder I am a cat lady.
This summer I am going to make art it will be awesome. Kris needs to get used to the sound of the loom and sewing machine too. ^^ And fabric and yarn EVERYWHERE. Why yes that is yarn in the fridge why . . . *shifty eyes* because it was to hot and needed a cool vacation. I need to get my flicker up and running again. |

| | stressed | ] | I am feeling stressed out and lonely.
This year at work is interesting . . . . I am not a fan of teaching middle school. Nor being at two schools. It could be worse like no job. Guess I shouldn't complain.
Wedding stuff needs to get done.
Kris is back in Houston, he found a well paying stable job.
Busy year . . . .
I wish I hand my old therapist's number. Oh well, thats life. |

| Start of summer |
[Jun. 27th, 2011|06:32 pm] |
My first year of teaching is over. It was amazing, I love teaching.
Now that summer has started I flew down to Houston to move Kris up to MI ^^ yay!
So we are visiting his family and Jenny. After I landed we went to Auntie Chang and bubble tea



We went to his dad's place for a few day. I tried sea food gumbo not my favorite the smell was to fishy for me, and crawfish yum they are tasty little mud bugs. We went to Maw Maw Deans ate nummie pie and finished a puzzle. Played a game like sorry at Kris's dad's house it was fun.

We went to Holly Beach, found shells, put my feet in the gulf of Mexico and had a crab visit me in the bathroom >_<



Then to Maw Maw Pud's we got over feed and played the no name card game.
So far the best things in Houston The bubble tea place and the awesome fabric store High Fashion fabrics. Yes, I spent too much at the fabric store they had beautiful silk ^^ so beautiful.




I have been over heated . . . it's too hot here for me. I feel like I am missing out of fun because of the heat and me not getting a long well. |

| | busy | ] | So long time no post.
I have been away due to the fact that it is my first year teaching. I am busy. Busy is not even the correct word to use. I eat, sleep and breath school and my students. All of the frustrations are worth it.
Today However is a snow day a.k.a. a weaving day and finish christmas shopping day. My cat says it is a sleep in with me day mom. But I can't. I am weaving a scarf for my boyfriends mom, she lives in TX so it has to be light weight. At first I made this beautiful warp of mixed yarns set wider to make a gauzy plaid. Well, first off I had to get another thing of the loom. While I was finishing that one of my pulleys to lift my shaft broke. GAAAAHHHHHHH I fixed it with some yarn. Yay! It works. I warp my beautiful warp and it is all set. I start weaving, I think this looks like shit. I ask my mom what she thinks she thinks it looks nice so I keep weaving I get to about over half way finished and my ties to the back beam snap. GAHHHHHH! The scarf self destructed. I couldn't add enough weight to tension it so I just took it off. I looks like shit my gut was right. I kept it to remind me and to use it for nuno felting. So know I am weaving her a bamboo scarf and using woven shibori. My gut is much happier with this one. If you are dreaming about weaving something else the entire time you are weaving something just stop and start over.
I have to get all of my christmas stuff wrapped by sunday. o_@ eep But I get to see my Texan hehehe ^^ |

| | loved | ] | My Texan came to visit for the first time last weekend. It was awesome. The First day I showed him around Detroit, ate at greektown, went to Belle Isle, and showed my work at the Belmont. At home he tried Vernors for the 1st time. *giggles* He got the fizz up the nose experience.
The second day we went up to Lake Huron and had a picnic on the beach. He was super awesome in Mary Maxim looking at yarn.

The water was really nice and warm, unless you grew up in Texas, it was freezing. We got sunburns, but still had awesome time. Drove back home took a little nap, then got Lebanese for dinner.
The Third day we just hung out around the house. I made a big breakfast, and popcorn, then mom made ribs for dinner. At the end of the day he was to stuffed to move. We did our jobs as Crawfords/ Italians.
 Us at belle isle
I am going to Visit him in August. Can't wait. |
