later, washington state

by the time you read this, the house will be for sale and leff, the cats and i will be on the road to chicago. 

if you've been waiting to read something scathing about how much i despised living in washington fucking state, eh, go read old posts. i've certainly written enough about how horrible of a place it is to live. 

in other words,  i am DONE with the tacky and everything related to it. (*fingers fucking crossed*) 


so goodbye to all of that and hello to chicago and a time zone that makes sense. can't wait to start my life over after that lost decade.

catching my breath before drilling down again

since i got slightly ahead of schedule this morning (YAY) i'm taking a short break to catch my breath and upload some photos from the past few days. 

here is fujiko enjoying the morning breeze.


i have been planting "witch" plants. here is something with "spider" in its name.


feel the burn!

we have entered the "too tired to cook, order pizza" phase of packing/cleaning. leff ordered us a jet special (bell peppers and beef (ours had beef and not mushrooms. XD))


and my travel thermos arrived!


k, time to get back to the grind! see you soon-ish.

this week, guys. this week.

i honestly can't believe it's only been a week since we got our new apartment lined up. i really can't tell you what i've been up to since then as it's been A WEEK where that week was nothing but working on the house and final prep for a cross country move and wanting to pull my hair out and slap people. 

but....

we got new phones. i remember that. it's a cross country move "tradition" if having something happen twice can be a tradition. i mean, we got these puppies in 2005 for the memphis to seattle move.

and just like before the memphis to tacky move, leff and i got matching phones. at least this time we can have covers to help us differentiate. 


i sense a theme here.....

don't expect me around much for a bit. it's our last full week (FINGERS FUCKING CROSSED) in this fuckforsaken piece of shit state. i'm planning on instagramming the move (as is my wont) so be on the lookout for a link to my account, er, once i get it set up.
