ive burnt the piss out of the top of my hand. its nice and burny as i type. owww. we've neither an aloe plant nor any sort of cream, so jergens ultra healing moisturizer is having to do for now. in other news, we're pondering moving to chicago. less extreme weather, more city, a real job, better public transportation, etc. i'm sure theres a million activisty activities to get involved in. its not terribly far from me ma in madison (closer than mpls). and nathan, carrie, and summer are moving down there in a year or so. we're pondering whether or not we would all kill each other if we lived together. i think this would depend on the set up of the house.
there is an opening in may at a co-op near where i work, so we're fin'a have dinner there soon and check the place out to see if we want to and are wanted to live there. hopefully yes. its farther from where ponge works, though, but by may he can ride a bike again. and the bus lines may give him a way there, unlike the ones near where we live now. maybe ill be able to buy that nice light good weather bike ive been pining over... we should have been able to save quite a bit of money by then (en challah), since we have so few current living expenses.
i been really crabby at work and unable to concentrate when counting out and fucking up my count outs this week. dunno what the deal is, maybe im having alcohol withdrawal since im on an alcohol fast right now. bout to say fuck it every other day, pretty much the main thing that stops me from doing that is pride - i said outloud to ponge that i was on an alcohol fast for a couple months. its only been like a week, i guess it'll be less of a pain in the ass later on. you know that hey its been a long day let us have a couple syndrome. but thats why im on the fast in the first place - i dont like dependancies. that and i kept smoking while drinking, and i really dont want to start smoking again. even though sometimes i do.
lots of snow. good. makes me happy to see real snow, and i like shovelling - gets me off my ass at night and outside in the weather. peaceful-like, shovelling in the midnight snow. im glad ponges first winter is a real one. but i really need to get some fuckin boots. i was playing with summer & nathan in the snow the other night and really realized how bad i need some freakin boots. i guess ill just have to suck it up and fork out the cash, since i cant find any boots i like in the price range i had in mind. its too bad the army surplus store closed...
but my hand really is burning like hell, i ought to stop abusing it. word out.
