mac & cheese is tasty

As I start to write this, one Mr. Kitty comes and decides to cuddle me. What could be better than that?

Life's been crazy lately, and I often don't know where to turn. There are so many whirlwinds passing around me. I do have good times though, so it'll all work out, I hope.

Money. Root of all evil. Something trivial and yet humanity places such a great value on it. With the system abolished, or with more in hand, everything would be just fine.

I went to the Tillamook Cheese Macaroni and cheese cook off. There was so much tasty food goodness. It was a free event, and I got a glass of wine, and so much food I was stuffed to the brim. The lady I voted for whose Mac&Cheese was OhMyGoodness good, didn't win - or even place, so that was kind of lame, but oh well.

Went to the pumpkin patch in North Plains yesterday with Brittany and Danny. It was pretty fun, and I enjoyed myself. We gave Britt a lot of crap for being super happy an excited, but I think she made the day. We took lots of video that'll be posted...eventually I'm sure. I'm really excited for Halloween, even though I don't have a costume super planned out. It'll be fun regardless.

John sold his computer, and went and got a lesser model. But... we only came out having an extra $120, and then he bought a midi controller for $40, so...yeah. Don't know if it's worth it really.

I don't know if there's even a point to updating ... because things are always the same with such minor variations.

Le Sigh. Off to see if Oregon can give me money now.

I'm Breathing Manually.

Aah. I can breathe!

Okay, sorry all for the craziness that's not even important. I know that no one would kick someone out for $40.33. For living illegally without a lease, yes, but the late fee shouldn't play into affect as long as they get their rent on time.

The package we'll get eventually, patience is a virtue and all that jazz.

We'll find another place to live. If we do get kicked out we'll find some people who will let us couch surf until we can find a place of our own we can afford. Beg, borrow, or steal - we'll survive.

DHS says I can get 10.00 in food stamps, so that's not even worth the trouble of applying. Although, the calculator said someone making minimum wage would only get 70.00 which seems - not right. If you make nothing, you can get 298.00 so that makes a bit more sense I suppose.

It's really funny and sad how nicotine, food, and country music have calmed my frazzled nerves to the point I can breathe again. I feel kind of guilty for falling to altering substances - but .. whatever. I'm not going to hold it against myself and I hope you don't either.

I can only pray that everything will smooth itself out and that no matter what happens there'll always be a silver lining. If you believe in such things, throw a couple good words up for me - will ya?

Alright then, it's time to get back to work and catching up on some television broadcasts. Oh, and homework for sure!
