why don't you come to your senses?

so it is wednesday. there isn't that much on my agenda this week. i want to try to get out to the latham salvation army tomorrow. little scared about that one, but i went on the thruway by myself for the first time this morning, so....i'm sure it couldn't be much different than that to get myself to latham. i'll use my gps i guess.

friday morning i think i am going out to penn state with shannon and courtney (two girls i went to high school with) to see another high school friends senior thesis show there. that, i think, will be a good precursor for me. get me prepared for long drives, even though i won't be driving this time around.

what else....maybe a picture just to break up the monotony of this page? yes!
here is the street i currently live on:

and here is the street i grew up on:


should be enough for now. ebay is going fine. not as much coming in as i would like, but i think i'd better get used to that, because i think it might just be the way it is.

and little early-pearly came by in his curly-wurly

that is the house i grew up in and the car parked in the drive is mine! ALL MINE!

ugh. i think i might hate driving. i am still sweating over the hour long drive i took over an hour ago where (among other things) an old lady gave me the middle finger.

yuck.

for the queen to use

hello!
i am headed to the post office in glenmont, ny now (12207) to mail out 3 packages to my lovely customers. one package has two pairs of shoes because one customer bought 2 pairs of shoes in one night! what a doll!

yesterday i officially filed a DBA (doing business as) at the albany county clerk's office. so from here on out, please refer to me as "Happy Cuties". the best part is, i handed the lady the form and she goes "are you starting a day care?" yes, why yes i am.
ha. but if i ever need a new path in life to follow, its good to know my business name will translate to childcare. god knows i have enough friends who babysit to staff that sort of operation any day.

all in all, life is moving much slower up here, and i am finding it a little rough adjusting. small tasks fill barely fill each day, and each night ends with me curled up in my bed reading books about cross-country travel and trying to wrap my head around the fact that i may just write a book like that one day.

time to get back in the car.
all the best to you and yours,
bianca

feel like i'm falling...

well well well, the new york post has done it again!

take a gander at this week's gem (SO RIGHT ON):

"There's a point in most children's lives where they have to admit to themselves that their imaginary friends aren't real. This can happen to adults too, except for grown-ups, those imaginary friends are usually super-imposed upon real people you know. Without realizing it, you impart entirely made-up qualities onto people who simply don't posses them. It's amazing how long these delusions can continue despite a total lack of supporting evidence——sometimes until they are brutally shattered by some real-life event that completely negates any plausible deniability. You don't have to wait until the shit hits the fan, though. This week open your eyes, and do your best to see at least one of your imaginary friends for who they really are."


Incredible! The shit DID hit the fan, however, but I think I can manage to come out on the up and up in this case.
Today is my last full day in New York, and I am still scrambling to get everything into a box or bag. I am taking a break (obviously) and feel like I am losing steam fast. I think I will put some food in my mouth right quick, and then plug on.

Best of everything to everyone,
B

its been a long time, now i'm coming back home

my horoscope from the new york press:

"You're swimming in a murky green pond. It's so full of messy life that you can't see more than a foot in any direction, and have no idea what might be lurking beneath your unprotected toes. Normally this situation would fill you with unease or even horror, but I hope this week you can trust me enough to relax and enjoy yourself. There are no sharks down there, of course. There aren't even snakes or leeches. Acutally, what's hiding beyond your sight are delights and pleasant surprises, believe it or not. All you have to do is relax, enjoy yourself, and wait until they swim up to nibble on your toes."

WOW! i love when things are so dead on like that. really.
what's so nice is the press is a free paper. so now every glass and mug i own are wrapped up in that horoscope. m e a n t t o b e

xo!

p.s. eight days...

we'll come into your town, we'll help you party it down

today today today today: get moving!
i am bumming around the house. need to go get newspaper to pack my dishes in. WHY DO I HAVE SO MANY DISHES?!
i have packed 2 boxes of books, a huge box of cds (CDS?!?), a box of summer shoes, and a box of vhs. today i have a great and many tasks to cross off my list, including: take shower, and get newspaper.
man, life sure is hard.

my little cousin serena is officially on board for the whole of florida and we are both so giddy about it! i can't wait to have special cousin time inside the belly of good old loretta-louise.

i made a decision yesterday to officially live a life dream and order tickets to see the price is right in june. HA! i know it sucks without bob, but maybe i will win big! winning is the real goal, so bob, or no bob, i will take burbank by storm.

okay, enough sitting around in my fucking pajamas. this is disgraceful.
adios.
