After reading a totally credible blog, crazypeoplesnews.com, I came to fear a black hole taking over my house. True story. Came from the internet and therefore it has to be true.
So I stopped by my new house to make sure a black hole did not taken my house. That and to make sure the retaining wall was finished - which it was. Oh, and the house was still standing, but I think I freaked out the neighbor! I was walking around the wall, making sure everything was good and the neighbor went to her car. She just kept looking at me so I waved. Hi neighbor.
That was my day, besides working all day. I woke up at 5 am this morning and could not find my cell phone, which is also my alarm. I feared that I left it at work so I stayed up until 6:30 to get to the office. I think my boss would have kiilled me if the alarm continued to go off all morning.
Alas, when I got to the office there was no cell phone. So of course I thought it was stolen from my desk over night. However, when I got home the alarm was still going off. I am afraid to go to be tonight because my cats may kill me for having to listen to it alllll day. In my defense, it was in the couch cushion.
After that I really could not find anything to do. Yeah, I could have cleaned my kitchen, but I didn't want to. Even though I only had a couple hours of sleep, I could not take a nap. Long story short, I took some sleeping pills. Heres for hoping they work! *fingers crossed*

Annoying Badger Song
Beth, thanks for sharing this video. I will never tell you about my crazy dreams, cause now I will have more.
Dreams
Lately I have been having the craziest dreams about my home. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I often have dreams that the house that I live in has secret rooms. These rooms usually have amazing things in them, like a fireplace or an awesome bathroom.
Last night was one of the strangest dreams. A house that was near the place I grew up in was forclosed. It was inhabited by Josie, an old women that had a beautiful white cat that would slap you if you came too close..with claws.
In reality, Josie's husband built the house in the 1920's and she lived there from 15 to her death at 94. My mom would always force me to go over to help her in the yard and for 18 years she was known as "the old women on the block".
Of the 9,820,932,039,842 times I went to her house I never seen past the front door. I always wondered what magical scenes laid within, yet I never was invited in. *Sad, but that was the same for many of the people on the block. I think my family might have been considered 'that family'.
Back to the dream (I know only my aunt and boyfriend only read this blog so I no longer abide by the short posts, he he.) Josie died (which she did) and the family could never decide what to do with the house so they closed it off to the world for 50 years, even though the timeline does not fit, that is how it was in my dream.
After 50 years, I decided to look at the house. There were so many treasures from years pass that I was in heaven. I kept going through her stuff and even stole some stuff. On the second level was her bedroom which I investigated futher and found turn of the centry lesbian porn.
I decided to buy the house because it had amazing woodwork. After all was said and done, I moved in and found things changed a lot. Half the neat things were gone and the home aged a billizion years. Everything was ruined and unlivable. Not only that, it was infested with badgers and weasles that kept trying to attack me.
I really hope there are not any badgers and weasles in my new place which I move in to in THREE DAYS!!!

Question answered
After two years, I have never opened this cabinet in my apartment. The cabinet in question is located in my kitchen. I have never had an issue with cupboard space so I never bothered prying open the said cupboard.
So last night I was packing up my kitchen and I realized I had no idea what was in there. I was so intrigued with the possible treasures that could live inside. Would it be old-timey pictures for years ago. Maybe gold bars or love letters. Oooohhhh, maybe it was a door to a third dimension!
I grabbed the appropriate tools (a knife) and pried it open. What laid inside? a sheet of glass and two sticky-back flooring squares. The squares were not even from a previous floor, it was the stuff on the floor right now.
Yeah, so I started thinking about how disappointed I was in the finds. I am temped to write a letter explaining what life is like in 2008 and my experience of living in the apt. However, I would feel like such a stupid-face if the next person opens it right away. So guess what I did? Guess!?! I wrote a letter dated 1973. He he!
Reasons I hate the suburbs
I can't believe I forgot to post this story last week. So, I had to go to Second Deput to drop off some work-related stuff. I was going to make it out their earlier in the week, but the traffic was too bad.
Saturday morning I woke up, cleaned and then headed out to St. Louis Park. I have always hated the suburbs for many reasons. The streets don't make since and the people are mean. However, my job made me go.
I thought I would be nice and buy some cookies for the employees. Knowing there was a Panera Bread up the road, I thought it would also be a great time to pick up some iced coffee.
The Panara was only a few blocks away, but it took FOREVER! The traffic was horrible. So I get there and I was standing in line and this bitch cut in front of me. I could not believe it! She just performed cuttizies! I blew it off and finally made my order. I got cookies and iced coffee. I was excited because it was really warm and I could be in my car for a while. After I ordered....and paid....the clerk informed me they did not have iced coffee. WTF! Who has coffee and no iced coffee. It is just coffee with ice. It is not that hard, people.
I finally get back to my car with my hot coffee and realized what was going on. A block up was a parade going on. Not only was the traffic stopped, but I could not turn left because it was blocked. My plan was to go up a block and turn around.
20 minutes later I finally make it past the light. I pull a Uie and head back towards the store. I thought "I finally have a break" when I was just about to go thought the light stopped by the parade. However, a cop jumps in front of me and starts blowing her whistle.
I turn off my engine and wait for the parade to pass by again. I had to watch the crappy marching band and cub foods. I got excited again because the Star Wars crew was going to pass by. However, right before they were going to come out, the bitch cop waved me to pass.
I get to the store with my cookies in hand. The first thing I noticed was a big tray of cookies to great patrons. I guess they wanted something extra special for those shopping after the parade. Great thing I spent all that time getting cookies for them!
So I decided to look around. They have a great area devoted to paintings. I figured I may find something for my new house at a reasonable price. I found the perfect painting! It was a fabric painting that would look great above my couch. Perfect color, perfect size and a perfect price. So I bought it. Only after I brought it to my car did I realize that it would not fit in the Saturn On (someone stole the i).
After 30 minutes I walked back in to the store defeated. I tried everything, but there was no way it was going to fit. I had to leave it :(
The good thing is yesterday Dustin and I picked it up and it fit in his car. Here is a really bad picture of another reminder why I had the suburbs.

Eek!
Less then a week until I move. Only five days left and I am super excited!
I have been cleaning and packing up my apt for the past few weeks, but I am finally almost finished. *Yeah for packing*. Dustin and I spent the day together yesterday and did home related things. He was being a super-sweet boyfriend and let me do what I wanted. We first went to Chang Mai Thai for my fav curry dish. Then to Second Deput to pick up a painting I bought last week and could not fit in my car so I had to wait until I had access to a larger car.
We finished the day with Jamba Juice and a few episodes of Nip Tuck. It was an awesome day!
I included a picture of Eek the Cat because that was one of my favorite cartoons growing up.
